Taijuan Walker, Aaron Sanchez and Treinen + Hernandez/Shaw and More!!

[Vlad27Trout27]

 

All 3 just got non-tender.

Walker a big time prospect,  good arm. Had Tj, and shoulder Surgery, local kid. 

Sanchez, a era title, down year and had shoulder surgery

Treinen: a former All-start Closer 

 

 Why not take a chance with on of them and see what they got, either in a rotation or the BP.

If they’re healthy Angels should take a flyer on one of these guys. Not claiming necessarily but trying to sign for a lower number than arbitration would’ve paid perhaps on a two year contract 

[JustATroutFan]

Treinen and Walker are both going to the Astros and look like Cy Young pitchers there. Same thing for Felix. He'll go to the Astros and "magically" rediscovers his 2014 form and go 20-3 with a 2.30 ERA and strike out 300 batters in 230 innings pitched next year.

but which one will lead the league in trashcan lids?

[UndertheHalo]

Treinen definitely seems like a guy I wouldn’t mind rolling the dice on. Guy was so dominant in 2018.  Wild how up and down relievers can be.

Walker and Treinen are worth the risk. 

[failos]

Cody Allen is also available

[JustATroutFan]

Matt Harvey is also out there and wants to come to the Astros. I would be nervous if Harvey goes to the Astros. Watch him strike fear into opposing hitters if he goes to Houston next year. He'll go 22-3 with a 2.00 ERA while striking out 320 hitters in 220 innings pitched.

I've heard Rickey Nolasco is still hunting for a job

I like what you’re doing here.  Thank you.

It's all about roster space. You can't just take a flyer on a guy - it comes with the cost of a lost roster space (which might be better utilized on a healthy arm).

[AngelStew43]

Most of those guys have red flags attached.  Walker or Sanchez may be worth a Garret Richards type of deal.

[ukyah]

treinan, hernandez, shaw. those are the guys i'd be cool with the angels giving a role to.

Treinen isn’t going to come for free. Being non-tendered is different than being released during a guaranteed contract.

A lot of teams are going to be interested. I bet he gets $4-5M for 2020.

Astros may have to wait for their punishment before attracting players.

Maybe that's one of their punishments. Ineligible to sign free agents for X amount of years.

[Angel Oracle]

Walker and Sanchez and shoulder injuries =  

Treinen has too expensive of an arb attached to him, and stunk it up in 2019.
