Not me. Unless there is a fairly cheap option, paying him to rehab seems like a waste.
Uh isnt he saying he should be ready for opening day?

Then they did the exact opposite of this when they signed Edwin Jackson to a big contract when he might have been a useful back of the rotation starter on a playoff team and completely useless to a rebuilding franchise.
Yeah and didnt they basically admit that was a mistake the other day? Cubs system isnt devoid of hitters...but pitching is going to be a problem

White Sox looking for catching have talked to Tampa about Jose Lobaton . Chicago hoping to fill there and lefty bullpen hole.

#SFGiants VP Bobby Evans said "ideally we'd like to get something done" tonight in LF. I hear Franklin Gutierrez is a name they like.

I have a hunch that we're working on a three team trade with the blue jays involving a swap involving Beckham and Larwrie.
Both the Jays and Sox beat writers are reporting teams to be exploring three team trades again... With Anthopoulos being quoted as thinking it gets done.
Again... Beckham and Lawrie are just speculation on my part.
Yeah I was thinking about that earlier....certainly seems possible

Hearing #WhiteSox looking at catcher Adrian Nieto for the Rule 5 draft. Would possibly trade up to get him. Phegley, Flowers in jeopardy.

Dan Hayes @DanHayesCSN 2m
Has two 3-team trades so why not another? Rick Hahn said #WhiteSox still considering direct and 3-team deals. Lot of ideas floating around.

I'm not sure why the M's would move Seager and not get a 3B back. But Montero/Franklin could be something.
They arent moving Seager....and the Nationals trade just a few minutes ago is probably a bad sign for the LH reliever market. Probably asking for too much.

Not sure how your post makes sense. The post I quoted said "I don't think anyone says De Aza sucks." When in fact that's all JoshPR ever says.
The the original response that you quoted was talking about a majority.....reread

It's weird how Merkin and Hayes went out of their way yesterday to say the Sox aren't in on Uribe, but people are still reporting that the Sox and Dodgers are waiting on him to decide.
Yep really confusing

Great insider info there Bruce. We'd have never figured that out otherwise.
The catcher idea was pretty obvious....but the LH bullpen help is probably not going to make some people happy though
QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 05:38 PM)
This. But I'll take a 3B too.
Ill sit through another year of the black hole at catcher if they keep making moves like they have been
Do the Mets even need De Aza at this point? Signed Young and Granderson this offseason already....OF probably isnt on the top of their list at this point
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 10, 2013 -> 03:37 PM)
I still dont think they are going to do anything with Catcher, I think two more vet bats in the MI and maybe 3B
Was that Uribe report made up?
