Official Mariners arm-chair GM offseason thread 2018-2019

[ulmax]

with the 2019..draft still comming and the new international starts around the same time

so if the mariners traded seager and segura they would have to replace them..but with who
the article leaves this out
and as far as projected money goes as well

 

[ulmax]

jose iglesias ..would work at ss
and eduardo escobar..would at 3B

but they would still need a utility guy

 

[ulmax]

i like the idea of keeping span as well
i would trade gordan but not for what..it sayes in the article...same for leake..but i dont really want to trade leake

 

[ulmax]

i may trade gordan to boston for brock holt...and a prospect...cuz gordan is a gold glove 2b

i like this guy

 

[ulmax]

or i could put gordan at ss and trade leake to san diego for franchy cordero who i would put in CF...along with span

or trade leake...and gordan to san diego
for cordero..and villanueva

 

[ulmax]

sandiego maybe the best fit for gordan....and they could really use leake until..there young pitching develops

hosmer gordan and myers ...whhoo

 

[ulmax]

trading hernandez and leake..would make them keep ramirez..im ok with that..out of the bull pen

danilson lemet..will be back for san diego...add leak in at #4 or #2 works...with nix as the 6 th guy

 

[ulmax]

ok so i found a spot for gordan and leake...but if they do that ..do they need to trade segura..??

i honestly didn't follow the team at all this past season, but all i see is dipoto selling poop for more poop and the m's goon owners paying their mouthpieces at the times and other "media" outlets to make the poop sound like platinum.

wash, rinse, and repeat for at least another decade unless there's new ownership, which won't happen.

meanwhile, at least one other 100% poop team in the AL will start rebuilding the right way, and contend within the next few years.

Yea its just an endless cycle. We are reaching the point where Dipoto will need to make the desperate move to save his job that will fuck over this franchise for years. You know, the Adam Jones move or the Cano Contract type of move.

 

[ulmax]

a gordon for cordero plus...seems a trade to sweet..to be true..from both sides......i will cross my fingers...lol

 

[ulmax]

Franchy Cordero likely having elbow surgery

 

[ulmax]

cordero would fit well in the 9th spot...he can run..and steal bases

i would hate to see the offence without cruz

and segura...that is just too much

so it would be seguras team....ok so be it...with a bulldog mentality...well they need an identity
anyway..that sayes where not that loser anymore

Yea its just an endless cycle. We are reaching the point where Dipoto will need to make the desperate move to save his job that will fuck over this franchise for years. You know, the Adam Jones move or the Cano Contract type of move.

Cano contract I’ll agree, but if it was just the Adam Jones trade alone it wasn’t bad, it was the Chris Tillman trade to me. Jones was the top prospect that had no role with the team and they got a solid pitcher back. Had the team half performed the way they did the previous year it wouldn’t have been a bad deal at the time. But they gave up their two top prospects for 100 losses. Bedard would be a solid number 2 behind Felix had the offense or bullpen performed, but they didn’t and Mr. Anti Social and anti 6 innings didn’t look good. I’ll put that deal in the category of signing Figgins or Silva.

Kind of like how I’ve disagreed with Jerry trading all of the top guys in the farm system (prior to him getting the job) You can package those guys in bigger deals or add them in in to deal a guy like Seager or Felix. No one will take on those contracts but giving up a prospect should entice some team enough where they will take some of it. This was the year to make the playoffs and Jerry had not ammo to pull off what they needed at the deadline so had to shop at the Goodwill instead Macy’s or insert your higher end store.
