Trumbo an Oriole (For Clevenger Done Deal)

[Il BuonO]

Over the last 2 seasons, Pearce has a homer every 19.666 plate appearances. Trumbo is a homer every 25.19.

Pearce also leads in ISO .236 to .184.

He certainly doesn't have Trumbo's raw power, but there is evidence he may be a more effective power hitter right now.

You like Pearce to continue with that type of production? Much of that came in 2014.

Over their careers:

Pearce HR every 25.94 AB (ISO .184)

Trumbo HR every 19.50 AB (ISO .208)

Throw in that Trumbo is going into his age 30 season, while Pearce is going into his age 33 season, I think Trumbo is the better bet power-wise.

We could still sign Pearce. Even with Davis, you could have

Trumbo - DH

Davis - RF

Pearce - 1B

against lefties. Or some combination.

If you really want Pearce, can't he play left field?

Dan does not want Pearce. He wants a left-hander at Buck's request.

No question. Plus. Look at them.

Brandon Moss?

He wants someone who can PLAY outfield.

My guess? Parra, Will Venable. Or a trade.

My guess? Parra, Will Venable. Or a trade.

How about the Korean left fielder?

Maybe. Does Buck want that? Dan seems interested in giving Buck what he wants.

Given the way the offseason is progressing, I'm not the least bit surprised to hear this.

No, I do not, as I stated. Just pointing out they may be closer at this moment than people think.

As do I. Just pointing out there is some evidence that suggests it isn't a slam dunk.
