Girardi's suitcase
4:10
With the Cards out of the picture, where would you see Joe Girardi manage next? Angels maybe?
Steve Adams
4:10
Sure I can see that if Scioscia really does hang 'em up. Established name in a big market where there's an easy Yankees connection (Eppler)

About what percentage of waiver requests do you think are known about?
Steve Adams
4:10
Less than 1%? Most of the league goes through waivers.

Cannot believe Yanks didn't get Smoak. Would have helped immensely.
Steve Adams
4:11
They probably didn't have an actual chance to get him. If they claim him, the Jays likely just pull him back.
Red Eye

What are the chances of Tim Tebow making his major league debut in a couple of weeks?
Steve Adams
4:11
Believe he's out for the season with a fractured hand unless his timeline changed. I'm sure the Mets would've done it for the merch and ticket sales, even though he has no business being anywhere near a big league field.
Adios Gio
4:13
Do you see the Nats moving Gio Gonzales to get under the cap, so they'd get better comp pick for losing Harper?
Steve Adams
4:14
Trading Gio wouldn't be nearly enough to dip them under the luxury tax threshold.

Is Josh Donaldson getting traded? If hes healthy the Indians and Cardinals makes since to me.
Steve Adams
4:14
There's just no way anyone gives up a prospect of real note for Donaldson when he's been out since May, has had three days worth of rehab games and is still owed the balance of his $23MM salary
4:15
The Jays are vastly better off issuing a qualifying offer. If he accepts, you have him at a 1/18 gamble and if he signs elsewhere, the draft compensation would top whatever they could get if/when he clears waivers.

Strong Tebow hate.............damn son
Steve Adams
4:16
He's just not a legitimate baseball prospect and it's silly to me that the Mets are treating him like one. I have nothing against him personally
4:17
Ok, I have to wrap this up for the week. Thanks to all who participated. Jason's up tomorrow night at 6:30pm CT, and Jeff will chat Thursday at 2pm CT. I'm on Twitter @Adams_Steve. Have a good week!
