Oh I agree there too. We could probably get Price and Zobrist with a package that included Bundy and Schoop plus.

Now those are 2 that I would love to see playing for Baltimore. But it would probably take Bundy & Gausman+ for them to trade in division despite Price's pending free agency & Zobrist's age.

Yeah, I don't see the Rays trading Price in the AL East. Also, he would take a much bigger haul due to being several years younger than Lee. Even if he wasn't in our division, we'd have to empty our farm system to have a chance at him.

Gavin Floyd may be heading for TJ surgery. He's done for the season.

He may be done for next season, as well. I heard he's out 14-19 months. Luckily, he's made a fortune already playing baseball.

I agree. I'd rather give up Bundy and keep Gausman. Bundy, Schoop, Arietta, Hoes, Delmonico for Lee and Utley would work for me.

You're talking about an aging injury-prone 2nd baseman getting paid 15 mil who's probably a half year rental - and a 34/35 year old pitcher making 25 mil a year. Gutting the farm system and dramatically increasing the payroll for them doesn't make sense, imo.

      Commanders Draft 2024

      By backwardsk · Posted

      Definitely want Maye. But I’m excited about the staff that has been put together to help a QB succeed. Lots of coaching that has worked with first round and high end talent: Mahomes, Mayfield, Murray, Herbert, Hurts. A lot of time when a QB “busts” the drafting organization is partly to blame. So whomever they decide to take is theoretically in a good environment to maximize their talent. I’d stick at 2 though. The exciting part about Thursday is whether or not they trade back into the first to take a tackle.

      I'd be fine with Kjerstad taking some playing time (OF & DH) away from Santander.  I don't think there would be any drop off in our offense productivity and especially with our young guys (Cowser and Westburg) starting to breakout

      Sending him down gives the team control of age 26 season, no?

      I agree that 1B would be his last positional option, just saying that he "could" play there if needed. But I agree, he will probably DH or play RF mostly.

      Albert Suarez 2024

      My guess is, teams will figure out Suárez eventually.  But I’m going to enjoy the ride in the meantime.   And I’d gladly see him in the bullpen in place of Baumann.  This guy at least knows how to pitch.

      With O’Hearn, Mountcastle, and Santander I don’t really see much of a need to play Kjerstad at 1B.  If this is more than a short term thing, I would hope that they make his transition as easy as possible, and DH mostly while allowing a few starts in RF. That is to say, let him focus for the most part on his hitting instead of trying to grasp a position (first base) that he still doesn’t seem comfortable with.

      But not if they bring in lefty and Rutchman and Santander switch sides. That being said, their only lefty relief options are Jose Suarez, who has thrown 53 pitches between yesterday and Saturday and also isn’t very good, and Matt Moore, who is a bona fide reverse splits guy.   Still, I think Westburg bats 6th so he isn’t back-to-back with Tony. Cowser or Mullins would bat 5th, with the other batting 7th.
