I think the only reason KC would move Whit is to get a couple good prospects AND unload some salary. I read somewhere a couple weeks back they are looking to cut payroll while they rebuild. KC would probably want a deal like Ian Kennedy and Whit for Marsh and Suarez? or something like that

What about Jonathon Villar? I don't see the Orioles holding on to him since they are in full rebuild mode and he will be gone by the time they hope to be good again Doesn't have the obp Epplers looking for but plays well defensively all over the infield - and there's a chance to hit a grand slam and have another year like he did in 2016 - or he could stink like 2017 but might be worth the risk since I don't think he would cost much

I hope we trade for Sonny and sign Eovaldi, then non tender Shoe. Keep JC he's cheap and can go to the bullpen as well as start

3.17 era, 9.9 k/9, 1.15 whip, 614 ops on the road in 2018 - just get him out of yankee stadium and he will be fine - probably a #2/3 starter

IF Dbacks start selling this offseason... Trade for Archie Bradley. His projected salary is 2 million and only in his 1st arb year Since becoming a reliever his FIP is 3.15, 2.6 bb/9 and 9.6 k/9 - fits the mold of Eppler bullpen guys and is also dominant vs lefties. Can go multiple innings and close

1. Trade for Whit Merrifield. have him play 2B vs RHPs and RF vs LHPs 2. Trade for Hedges or bring back Machete 3. Trade for Justin Smoak or sign Matt Adams 4. Sign JA Happ 5. Sign David Robertson

solution - trade for Whit Merrifield and have Whit play RF vs LHPs and have Fletcher play 2B vs LHPs. Against RHPs have Whit play 2nd and Calhoun play RF. Calhoun is at least average or above average vs RHPs

Trevor Rosenthal is an under the radar guy. tommy john surgery august of 2017 and should be ready start of 2019. he will probably look for just a 1 year deal too

facking taylor ward, Blash 2.0 with his leg kick and 160 BA, gets a gimme ground ball double play to end the inning 5-4 and blows it. I could have made that play with tyler whites slow ass running to first

Ward is TRASH

https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/mlb/padres/2018/09/03/wil-myers-apologizes-fortnite-stream-comments-andy-green/1188565002/ not a practice guy, would rather play Fortnite PASS

The Machado trade this year would probably be a starting point. For almost half a season Baltimore received a top 100 prospect in Yusniel Diaz, along with Dean Kramer a 45 pitcher (some might rate as a 50), Zach Pop a solid relief prospect, Bannon a borderline 3B prospect, and a throw in Valera Based on that a similar trade would probably be Marsh, Luis Pena, Jose Rojas, and Hanewich But it would be for an entire year so if I had to guess Marsh, Suarez, Ward, and Gatto

Id like to see him get a lot of ABs next year but I don't think it will happen, or at least a very very short leash with him It all comes down to Eppler and its not his draft pick and they should be in win now mode next year I guess Fletcher isn't his draft pick either but you know what you get out of him, less risk for Eppler when he needs to start winning

I don't see it with Ward tbh... Cozart 3B and Fletch 2B next year I guess
