I don't like Smith either, but seems like a Dipoto guy.Plays OF and 1B blah blah blah. Pass.

Other organizations have the same troubles as the mariners...
Good luck...

I read he wanted to play for a bg market team. Not sure we qualify for that. He is visiting Padres right now and is good friends with Darvish and two other players. Uphill battle to sign him.

Tick, tick, tick...

Dec. 5-8: Winter Meetings in San Diego. This is typically when all offseason hell breaks loose. The Winter Meetings are the busiest few days of the offseason, if not with big trades and free-agent signings, than with gobs of rumors. It is four days of non-stop hot stove action. Historically, the biggest moves of the offseason are completed at the Winter Meetings. GMs can talk face-to-face with agents and other GMs to get things done

However, Dipoto is excited about the young outfield group. Obviously Julio and Teoscar will anchor the outfield, leaving, as it currently stands, Jarred Kelenic, Taylor Trammell, and Cade Marlowe to battle for regular reps at one of the corners. “Somebody in that group is going to break through,” said Dipoto. “We do want to make sure that we provide opportunity so that our young players have that chance.” From that, it doesn’t sound like the Mariners will be super-active in seeking out another outfielder (including Haniger, who Dipoto did not mention during that call), but never rule anything out where Jerry Dipoto is concerned in the off-season.

As far as further additions, Dipoto says they’ve been in touch with all the free agents the Mariners have in their “Tier A, Tier B,” in some cases having direct contact with players, but he does anticipate the market to slow down some with the holidays approaching, as it does every year. On the trade side, the Mariners have been in contact with other clubs, as “we do have more than one target,” even exchanging names with some clubs, but there is no “direct hit” as of yet, and he describes the tenor negotiations as “not particularly close.” So for those of you who have been waking up early to play the What Has Jerry Done Today game, it sounds like you can hit the snooze button...for now.

This sounds scary. Dipoto makes it sound as if he is done. We have accomplished nothing. Please tell me I am wrong.

 

[ulmax]

There is masataka. Witch they have said they are interested but in..
And he would make a great..LF option for the mariners..
He saying he may be going with kelenic..or Trammell..then ..better get...yoshida..

Who could also be sent down just for n case..

 

[ulmax]

Not that they would.,....
But they could is a plus...
The idea would be kelenic and yoshida..

LF and 4th outfield.,

Then ya still need conforto...so.
Yeah..he is not done.....yet....

Some are saying turner....and I could see..that..

But Torres..is 25..years old...witch...is big .in the long run...
And Torres fits at the end of the lineup,and he can steal more than 10 bases..,
Yankees don't steal ...that much.lol..
It's a bit diff....style....ball
But Torres...is well suited..

 

[ulmax]

If I put ..line up..

1 yoshida..LF...L/L
2 Julio...,...cf
To stop running here.

3 France....1b
4 Hernandez.,.RF
5...,I don't see anyone else that fits.except conforto..that is just me though..
6 Suarez....,3b
7 Raliegh....catch..

They can run from here
8 Crawford.....ss..L/L
9 Torres.....2B,....

 

[ulmax]

Bench

10Murphy
11 Moore
12 haggery
13 kelenic.,

The way I see it anyway .

 

[ulmax]

This line up is no.,
Draft picks...overboard....

Free agents..
Conforto..
And
Either...
Biantendi...or..yoshida..

 

[ulmax]

37 mil...
Conforto 20 mil
Binantendi...17 mil or yoshida..

37 mil...is a good off-season...

Basicly..there are a lot of extras .to add expenses..as well..so it's still..50 mil prob

And not counting bull pen.

So call it the heavylifting

 

[ulmax]

In the end anything below 200 mil is good
