Fletcher, by far, is the best defensive 2B we have. La Stella is not close in that regard. However, I can see Tommy picking up playing time against RHP, particularly in the DH, 1B, 2B, and RF spots, possibly. Literally, he will be a utility guy as he should be barring injury and even then there might be other players who step up into the Majors before him.

[Dtwncbad 3,349]

I appreciate the love for Fletcher.  But if Fletcher is part of a package that gets the team what it needs on the mound then you trade Fletcher.

2B isn’t going to be a problem in 2020 with or without Fletcher.

@Jeff Fletcher, off topic for this thread, but any chance youll be putting out a story at some point on how the cole sweepstakes went down?

I assume the FO wont say too much, but maybe timelines or something as to when we moved on?

The more time that passes the more likely they are to talk about it. As of now, Cole hasn’t even officially signed with the Yankees. 

[Jeff Fletcher 7,220]

I haven’t read through all this but my understanding is it could be something like Rengifo OR Sandoval, plus Deveaux. Or something along those lines.

@Jeff Fletcher, if no one else is going to ask you, I will..

What's with the Twitter stuff the other day?  You sent this forum into full hysteria.

There were 7 heart attacks, 241 panic attacks and two episodes of people peeing in their pants.

This strikes me as a bad idea. I'd much rather sign Ryu or Bumgarner and Teheran.

This works for me, though I'd like to keep Sandoval since this org needs as much SP depth possible with their injury histories.

You don't like my explanation that he was simply surprised about how much money Cole was getting?

Correction: Fletcher didn’t send this forum into hysterics, that was all self-wrought.

I'd do that trade 100 out of 100 times.

One of those peeing his pants was voluntary.

Are you out of your frigging mind? That is a trade package for a pitcher much younger with team control. 

You must have chosen to or forgot to read my further posts where I explain that because of less team control and injury, the price is likely reduced to something around Luis Rengifo and Jordyn Adams. Which is still steep.

Gubicza seems confident we get two top tier pitchers and real soon.

It's alarming that Gubicza doesn't know how to spell Maddon.

A lot of adults can't spell well or make mistakes even in the field they cover.

Or know what a top tier pitcher is.

i may be alone on this, but i'm very skeptical of la stella being good again. i think last year was clearly an outlier season for him and not the norm from this point forward.  i don't think we'll see him be as good as he started off last year any time soon. i hope i'm wrong.

i'd have zero problem moving him in a deal.

You're not alone. I'm skeptical as well. His career year happened to coincide with a juiced/lowered-seam (or whatever excuse MLB wants to use) ball. 

[Angelsjunky 10,090]

In order of preference:

1. Kluber

2. Ryu

3, Keuchel

4. Bumgarner

5. Price

If that's the case, then Eppler should pull the trigger.
