Perennial..

No thanks .

I wanted Jazz Chisholm at the deadline but a lot of fans thought we could do better. We haven't and Jazz would fill the need for a 3B right about now.

I thought you didn’t like him cause of clubhouse issues

Ya I would pass on Castillo for Kjerstad. Not enough. Now Kjerstad and Mullins I would do and that helps Orioles with some payroll.

I don't know enough about Mayo to say I would do Miller or Woo for him. Plus that doesn't help with our cheap ass issue.

Same with Gilbert/Kirby and prospects for May/Kjerstad or Mayo/Westburg.

I would hold to my guns and say it is Castillo and maybe a prospect for Mayo/Kjerstad or Mayo/Westburg. I kind of still like Mullins in a deal.

I am not in a hurry to trade just to trade. Either it makes sense for this year plus a couple more or just forget it and roll with the same crap hitters we have. With our self-imposed low budget, I want to keep all the top prospects because we aren't getting good in their prime in the next several years so that is our only chance.

Just my opinion but Mayo is a go for it move. He may end up like Kelenic where he is a top prospect who flames out but IMO with how it appears ownership is content with not spending to win trading for a huge upside guy is what I’d do.

I see your point with Mullins and I’d never thought of that. I was going mostly Kjerstad because he is cheap, former highly rated prospect as well is a throw in because Mayo is the key

My thing is if they trade with the Orioles I think it has to involve a prospect swap somewhere. Unless it’s Castillo for Mullins I don’t think it works.

And finally IMO if Westburg and Mayo are on the table there isn’t a prospect that can’t be involved. Cause those two guys are the perfect two guys that would make this offseason an A

[ulmax]

But castillos money would still be available.
21 mil..

And Kirby..5mil call it.

 

[ulmax]

I would not trade Jorge but if they gave
Me a deal I could not refuse.
I would have to.

Prob Baltimore..

That may be case...so watch.out..

I don't want to compute the odds.
On that one.

 

[ulmax]

Yeah they would back up the truck..
With
A load of guys .in that case

 

[ulmax]

Most likely..in that case

Kerstad..
Montcastle..maybe not..but.maybe.
Dean Kramer .rhp..
Dylan beavers...AA cf..cal berkly

 

[ulmax]

Well its baltimore.narative..

What the cost..... not a lot ....
And top pitching..

 

[PolarVortex]

I wanted Jazz Chisholm at the deadline but a lot of fans thought we could do better. We haven't and Jazz would fill the need for a 3B right about now.

He did much better for the Yankees than I expected; looked like an Alfonso Soriano clone with 11 HR and 18 SB in only 46 games. He'll be a 30-30 guy and with that short porch in Yankme stadium, a possible 40-40 threat.

No telling how he would have done as a Mariner. Maybe a Dylan Moore clone. LOL.

 

[ulmax]

Then Seattle rotation

Castillo.
Gilbert.
Miller.
Woo..
Hancock

 

[ulmax]

Well It would give them a fighting chance.
Both clubs
Really.
But not Baltimore if they don't fix.
That Bull pen

 

[ulmax]

Ok .ok.not.
Kramer..

Mcdermott..rhp
Or.
Povich..lhp

 

[ulmax]

If it's get fired or have no one there.

I trade kerby cuz I more or less need to

And cuz that is what Baltimore wants
