I also want to see Odor extended to a mutually beneficial deal.

Brocail could/should be replaced fairly easily IMO

It's difficult to knock a manager who has won back to back division championships but Banister has room for improvement too. May be off base here but he has a problem evaluating players. ( Exp: Diekman.) Hope he spends some time looking at some of his errors.

You can add Alberto to that list. Thanks for the thread.
I don't like him mostly bc he can't hit. As a UIF he does a good job and if he goes who replaces him? Profar is not a candidate most likely. :noidea:

Thanks for this thread Blue Jays :doh:.


I guess I'm pulling for either Cleveland or some team from the national league.

Carlos Gomez: "Of course I want to come back. If I had (this much) fun, that I enjoyed it so much for like a month and a half... I can't imagine it for 180 something days. I put this in God's hands... and they know that I love it here. I'm very loyal, it's not always about money. I have money. It's about enjoying the job that I love."

A show me deal would be seriously perfect for him. If he can sign for 1 year 8 million he could get a big payday with a good year.

Not sure who I want to see gone yet. That all depends on their situation and what we get in return if they are traded. There are no Kirkmans that I want to see gone even without getting anything in return.

I would like to see our major free agents given QO so as not to lose them for nothing.

I just want JD to be open to trading anyone if it helps improve the team. Even if that it one of our best pitchers or best position players. When I say improve the team I mean improve it more than just in 2017.

I would like to see Profar as our everyday 2B next year.

Anyone interested in going after Chapman in free agency?

Feliz?

Unsure what I want for Profar. 2B is fine if we won't lose 33 HR in Odor. What do you think the chance of Beltre at 1B and profar to 3 RD are?

Hell to the no on Chapman. You don't don't spend big bucks on relievers. You can trade prospects for them, but just lie the NFL you don't wanna be the team that shells out the cash for a running back. It's not worth it.
