Yolmer's at least a decent enough player to be a guy that could be traded to fill a role on a good team. I think he's somewhat comparable to Eduardo Escobar at this point in his career.

I agree Yolmer is decent enough.  He's a solid utility guy and a guy that can fill in for a few weeks for a DL stint and you don't feel too bad about plugging him in.  But he's no where near as good as Eduardo Escobar, IMO.  Escobar has had 4 straight seasons of above average OPS+ seasons, including 118 and 127 his last two seasons.  Yolmer will never sniff that.

I am not saying lets cut Yolmer or anything, but I don't think you're getting anything for him via trade, and I'd rather roll the dice with Rondon for a season than Yolmer.  At least let them share 2B duties. 

Again, hopefully this isn't an issue once Machado is in the fold.
