Would you consider acquiring a stud 3rd Baseman and sending Machado back to minors?

Wow. He will be a monster first baseman at that size.

Yep....i could be wrong but he looks very slender to me. As i said i have nothing to base this on but gut instinct. How tall is he? He looks tall compared to JJ.

Who is a "stud" 3B worth moving Machado off of 3B? Wright? Zimmerman?

[Crazysilver03]

I personally think Machado will outgrow SS when his body fills out. He just looks to me like a guy that will fill out and eventually be 250-260 lbs.

Machado is listed at 6'3" and 185 lbs. I know its your opinion and all but I think this one will easily be wrong. He MIGHT max out around 200-205.

Good question. I think Machado has a chance to be better than both in 2 years.

How easy will it be to get Headley? A lot harder than it was in July, I can tell you that...

What pieces to you propose will get the job done?

I hear what your saying, and agree that it will be costly. But with the reemergence of Tillman, I would offer Tillman, Hoes, Avery and would be inclined to add in Arrietta and take out one of Hoes/Avery. That offer would definately tempt the Pads.....and for the record, NO WAY IN HELL they ask for Manny or Dylan....they know their offlimits
