Well, he's a reliever that has thrown 60 IP and started 1 game this season with an ERA near 4, a FIP of 4.56 and a WHIP of 1.317.

He's relatively cheap.

So you're buying assuming that he can go back to starting. If he does go back to starting, you're essentially getting someone that would need to ramp up their innings.

But he his under control for the next few years.

He is not a rental. He isn't eligible for free agency until after 2019.

I don't think he's "cheap" for the Rays. He's never going to be in the rotation. His arb number is going to jump to around 4 million next year. That's alot for a bullpen guy for them.

I wonder if we could trade from our C depth for him. Like Heim/Murphy + 11-20 type prospect.

I would try to give the Rays a list.

Wright, Bridwell, Garcia, Lee, Aquino, Walker.

Pick one.

That way they get something and free up a roster spot.

I hope DD adds a OFer that can hits lefties and back up CF also in another trade.

Good point about him being expensive for the Rays going forward.

They'll try selling him as a starter, though.

The Rays don't like to trade within the division so there'll be a division tax. I think Mancini should do it.

I wouldn't trade Mancini for Erasmo.

Absolutely not! This type of trade is a "make a trade just to make one." No way you give up a good arm like Wright for this guy. That is the type of strategy that has caused up to move good arms in the past. DD either gets a salary dump or just needs to stand pat. He's the genius that ignored starting pitching in the offseason.

This is getting insane. We are going to give up our best hitting prospect (and next year's cheap DH) for a long man out the bullpen for a last place team. Unbelievable!

Then you wont get him. You have to pay to play. We don't need Mancini as much as we need SP depth if we want to go for it.
