Do you think Dipoto would trade for Skaggs again?

[Chuck]

Third time's a charm?

Maybe we can throw in Baldoquin and land Segura for 2B?

Skaggs, we pay for Cozart's 2019 campaign (who plays SS for the M's, Dee Gordon has been moved to 2B) and then throw in Baldoquin for Segura?

Also, he just acquired a former farmhand in Ricardo Sanchez. 

 

[Chuck]

Or... 

Calhoun, Skaggs, Marsh and J. Jones or Rengifo for Haniger and Segura. 

[fanfromday1]

Dippy might fancy Ward as a trade piece too. Didn't they have a dance party when he was drafted a few years back? 

[totdprods]

Before he started his 're-imagining' I would've guaranteed you that he would have,  but with Skaggs only being controlled two more seasons, not so sure anymore - I'm sure he'd still be interested, but not to the point where he'd be offering us Segura or Diaz or the one prospect they have left, and if it doesn't involve those guys, I can't say I'd be that interested.

He did... Ward would be a good add to land either Segura or Haniger. I doubt we deal for Diaz as it would probably take Adell and HELL NAH. 

[totdprods]

Keep in mind Jerry tried hard to acquire Cozart numerous times as well. 
I'd deal Skaggs, one of Ward/Jones/Thaiss, and insist on Cozart/Calhoun to be included to shed some salary for Segura. 

Freed up money can go towards an impact SP, RF, or 3B FA. Preferably making this trade after we had signed a FA. 

Could also see a 3-way deal work out, perhaps with San Diego, St. Louis, or Arizona. It's the rare instance where a 3-way trade actually may make it less complicated.

I like it. 

[totdprods]

And if you don't think Dipoto would overvalue his own prospects he drafted here in Anaheim, you'd be mistaken. 

Dude loves re-acquiring any player he's ever been involved with, be it in trade, waivers, minor league FA. 

He'd love to get his hands on Ward or Jones after the Angels turned them into something. It's easy to joke about, but he actually probably would take Baldoquin as the last piece in a deal.

Jerry will trade anybody for anybody at any time, anywhere, for any reason and with anyone.

Then leak to the media that it was his manager's fault, then get hired by a division rival and destroy that organization too.

Am I the only one here who feels Segura might be a clubhouse cancer? Nothing to back it up, just seems that he is...

[Docwaukee]

Jerry isn't going to be trading with the Angels and visa versa.

Was gonna say this. I'd be really f'ing surprised if he dealt anything at all to the Angels. Just cause of history.

It's widely thought that he was the reason for the locker room scuffle last season with Dee.

[Inside Pitch]

No doubt the reason for that widely held belief is due to leaks by the usual suspects.  Constant leaks and rumors were a problem here for three and half years, too.

[kevinb]

Can we trade him Pujols Upton Calhoun and Skaggs for Segura...... Tom Segura

Marsh and Jones are keepers my man.  Unless you're getting an ace pitcher in return.

How about trading him Boz Scaggs instead?

Currently overseeing the "re-imagining" of the Mariners roster..

[Blarg]

Benoit posted a 2.34 ERA the season before and De Los Santos was a late-blooming teen yet to reach full-season ball, so the deal made sense at the time. Benoit didn’t pitch well for the Mariners, however, posting a 5.18 ERA in 26 appearances and was traded to the Blue Jays, for whom he posted a 0.38 ERA in 25 appearances. 

 

Could have it been the environment in Seattle?

And I'm not talking weather.

[Blarg]

It looks as though Jack Z had a pretty good farm on the rise before being ousted and Jerry traded it all away. 

[Chuck]

If the Mariners get this guy in addition to Kelenic and Dunn, then Jerry has made a good trade (depending on how much $$$ they're paying for Cano over his next 5 years). 

According to Jonathan Mayo of MLB.com, Jeff McNeil is among the Mets being discussed in the Robinson Cano and Edwin Diaz trade talks.

McNeil burst onto the scene as a 26-year-old rookie in 2018, slashing .329/.381/.471 over his first 248 major league plate appearances. He would take over at second base in Seattle, with Cano and his big contract heading to New York. McNeil is under control through 2024 and won't be arbitration-eligible until 2022.
