So you'd trade 2 dudes who are valuable pieces to the offense in Santander and Mountcastle and a guy whosgreat on defense in Mateo for...what again? Santander would probably command maybe a #3 guy in another teams rotation, while the prospects could command a #1 or 2 in another rotation. Dont break up whats working right now. We did that in 2014 and look what happened.
Santander is absolutely expendable considering who we have in the minors and the case could made that Mountcastle is as well.
Mateo has been hitting much better this year, which makes him much more valuable than as a simple defensive replacement.
Middle relief remains troubling and santander and mounty could get valuable shut down guys for the 6-8th innings.
