I have been asking myself the same question on this. Murphy is a great leader for this team, but you can't count on him. Guys you can count on on that role aren't worth anything. Are two buddies on the podcast keep mentioning Zunino. I thought they should have picked him last year when he was released and Murphy went down. I know he K's like Teo, but plays better defense than most and when he does connect it goes. Plus he is a great teammate from everything I have read on him.

I don’t think you can count on Murphy for anything. Any production he would give would be a bonus. I’ve heard them mention Zunino in the past but now they are saying Murphy is worth the $6-7 million. Don’t know or care about the projections of salaries but if Stanton is really as cheap as us fans are saying than IMO it is ludicrous to spend that much on Murphy. They could’ve rolled O’Keefe out there is they had a 2B, 3B and two COF’s. I don’t know, it just seems backup catcher is a position that has burned them every year the past 3 years cause they counted on Murphy. And we all love Cal but he can’t continue to be behind the plate as much as he has. If he does then Cal will be burned out by the time they will have to resign him. I think with his playoff clinching home run plus his comments that were basically what every fan thinks, him not getting resigned or traded will be a worse PR hit than the 54%.

As well as I am all about having good clubhouse chemistry but that chemistry is such a weird thing with Jerry running things. He has preached culture and all that but then twice trades clubhouse leaders for nothing. He treated Seager like crap, and Marco and Haniger openly questioned Jerry. So basically from the beginning of the rebuild he has poisoned the culture but somehow I’m suppose to believe culture is such a big thing to bring Murphy back? I don’t know cause Santana was positive for the club but they are at a point in the rebuild where bringing in or keeping the veteran leader who provides nothing doesn’t make sense.

[ulmax]

Even if they keep Gonzales till the trade.deadline..they.still,..need to trade him by then .
He simply won't fit...after ray comes back..

 

[ulmax]

It done ..

 

[ulmax]

Good luck there .
Yes even I considered .for a while.

Japanees or 1.korean..baseball.players.
Are possable..we will see..what the mariners .say..on those guys .

What..I have shown..is ..me ..putting.a team...together..mariners style..

Lane Thomas..11..with..73...

Hernandez..14..with 69..
Raliegh..18.th.with..67..
Ty France..31st..with 62

Julio..56th...with..56..

[ulmax]

My add of Thomas..I'll cut down.his srikeouts..and runners stranded..
With..canzone
Remember ..he was on the natbats .
They don't have..all that many..guys who..
Are good..

 

[ulmax]
