Who those two additions are, and how long they are signed for, will be an indication of if they are in win-now mode or not. That will let me know if I was right about trading 5 to 8 prospects by the deadline. I sure hope I was wrong.

Well if they sign Kershaw and Suzuki then could be both trying to compete this year and ahead although we would have to have great pitching to do well this year

Yes, winning "ahead" would be in the plans either way. If we sign some guys longterm it will become very tempting to trade prospects who are no longer needed, to acquire additional help for this year.

Yeah, it is hard to do in the spring and impossible to do while playing in the minors. I hope that is just more of Woodward not caring about lying.

Real bad look to go to press. It is like “ let’s continue to be mediocre—- Not much would beat his bat

I guess it could be considered a shrewd move to increase trade value lol

with what we have available it is logical to assume that IKF would be the lead candidate for 3B to open the season. i can't think of anyone else to put there on a full-time basis unless we sign a FA
