Kendrick & Aybar

[nando714]

Officially on the block & Angels officially sellers

Per cbs sports

[Ohtaniland]

Aybar goes nowhere if GM Pujols has anything to say about it.

[KingJustinian]

Why would we trade Aybar without a replacement?

[nando714]

Idk just relaying what i read

[KingJustinian]

Idk just relaying what i read

 

Yeah, I know. I just hope the Angels don't blow up the team. I think they can compete for the next few years if a few things go right, such as Pujols getting healthy and Hamilton playing like he should.

I'd rather not have a fire sale if you don't get MLB-ready players in return.

[Tyler]

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

What kind of return are we looking at for these players?

[Vegas Halo Fan]

Yeah, I know. I just hope the Angels don't blow up the team.

 

The problem is that, if they do, the pieces who need to go will be the ones left behind due to contracts. The possibility of seeing Hamilton and Pujols out there with a bunch of kids and Trout marking time until his free agent year are not appealing to me.

@Alden_Gonzalez: Kendrick & Aybar available, per Jeff Passan, because (A) #Angels need SPs, ( can't afford FAs,© offensive players are best trade chips.

[CanadianHalo]

@Ken_Rosenthal: Source confirms #Angels willing to listen on Kendrick, Aybar, others, as first reported by @jeffpassan. Goal is to upgrade starting pitching

@Ken_Rosenthal: For Kendrick or Aybar, #Angels would seek a starter under multi-year control. Some teams want major leaguers for such pitchers, source says.

[CanadianHalo]

For those without twitter

[nando714]

If they do trade either one

What can the angels potentially get in return player wise? For example who? Haha

[The God of Runs]

Dammit! I knew we shouldn't have DFA Brendan Harris

[nmh]

Howie has limited no trade protection. 12 teams he cant be traded to. I would be okay with trading him considering he is due about 10m per each of next two years if we get a good enough return. Hopefully we can wait for him to pick up 3 more hits to get to 1000 as an angel.

[Sciosciapath]

Trumbo for Ivan Nova

 

Get it done, Dipoto.

[stevestevens]

Pujols, Hamilton and our entire farm system for the entire Twins farm system.

[Chimi]

Looking forward to seeing what Segura can do once they trade Aybar.

 

...oh, wait...

[Agalloch]

I'd be open to trading Kendrick but would rather not trade Aybar.

 

 

Plus when we trade Kendrick we can sign Cano to a 10-year deal

[Hollyw00d]

Looking forward to seeing what Segura can do once they trade Aybar.

 

...oh, wait...

 

Segura in June:  .277/.296/.429

 

In July: .273/.316/.307,   yes a .307 slugging.

 

Since the all star break:  .216/.216/.243

 

In a hitter's park, in a league with weak pitching.    He's not as good as you think he is.

[Glen]

At this point if they trade either of them my reaction will be "meh."  Which is also my reaction to almost anything the Angels do right now.

 

Meh.

[Jay]

I'd rather not have a fire sale if you don't get MLB-ready players a new GM in return.

[Angel Oracle]

I'm losing faith in Dipoto, even after just 1.5 years.

At least, unlike J. Pierpont Reagins, he can be a strong farm system leader.

[shellback]

JD has just had some really bad luck this year.

he bet some pitching longshots that didn't come in. when all the the trade propoals, bitching and moaning subside we need to get some pitching.

a good sign was the angels draft that was mostly pitchers.

[Angel Oracle]

No doubt that bad luck has partly factored in.

I'm hoping that will tame the crazy off-season FA signings, to just strategic ones that don't have the potential for backfiring so much.
