Just go trade for Jay Bruce or Markakis

[MDtransplant757]

I would give them Mike Wright or Christian Walker. They can have their pick. He's got similar trade value to Trumbo IMO.

I'd send them walker

[sportsfan8703]

2014-2015 Trumbo - .251/.303/.435, 103 OPS+, 26 HR/162 in Arizona and Seattle

2014-2015 Bruce - .222/.288/.406, 90 OPS+, 25 HR/162 in Cincy

Hitting, worse. Contract, worse. He should cost less than Trumbo in trade unless the Reds eat part of his contract.

Good post. I've kinda soured on the idea myself. He had a terrible 2013 as well. I'd rather go cheap on another OF bat and save for CD and a SP.

I'd put Davis out at RF and trade for a starting pitcher

If Davis is in your plans, there's no need to go cheap on anything else in the OF. Kim, Rickard and/or Hoes are your "going cheap" at that point, right?

I'd say. Maybe a Matt Joyce or something, but if Davis signs I think 13 position players are set. Davis, Kim, Flaherty are the lefties with Wieters and Paredes switch hitting.

I'd rather just sign Alzarez for two years (note: I haven't the foggiest what his contract wishes are).

He was non tendered because he would me 8MM...I would expect a 1 year deal @ 5-6 MM

He's a Boras client I expect 2/15.

Wait, wouldn't Walker or wright represent more value than clev?

Well when the farm system consists of a couple of injured pitchers and tumbleweed...

Although I agree for the most part. Chance Sisco, IMO, has the makings of the next great Oriole.

Jomar is intriguing.

About what I was expecting. I'd probably be okay with a 2 yr deal in the 12-14M (total) range.

I like it.

Let's put the band back together!

I'll take that lineup against any pitcher in MLB. Every day and twice on Sunday, let's play two.
