The names being bandied about include Gohara.. Pike.. Paxton with Barney and Franklin possibly being mentioned. There is also discussion about Hultzen NOT being included..
He is only 28 and is their ACE so I don't see him going to the pen any time soon. He would be a great #3 for us. I read on another site about this rumor from a different source so there is some legs to it. Here is a part of the other post regarding this rumor:
Would not give up any of the Mariners top 4 prospects (Walker, Paxton, Peterson or Sanchez) for him. Jeff is a #3 at best and I honestly believe that Paxton could match his performance minus about 30 innings. He may be their ace but he still had a very average 4.34 ERA in 2013.
I wouldn't give up a Paxton in a million years for a run of the mill 28 year old #3-#4 starter.
