southsider2k5 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 First transaction: DFA Rodon and Mazara Crazy trade scenario: Big trade for a SP that no one is talking about. My guess, Marco Gonzalez Biggest signing: Stroman 2021 closer: Colome Bauer 2021 team: Rangers Extra Credit: Cubs sell off Bryant and Schwarber this winter, don't add any significant free agents.

flavum Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 I don’t know, but stop signing guys that have been suspended for PEDs while in the union. I like Benintendi. Calhoun would be interesting to trade for. Vaughn and Abreu should be DH/1B pretty much all season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yesterday333 Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 My prediction is we sign Bauer and Joc and bring back Colome. And crazy probably won’t/can’t happen prediction we sign both Colas and Cespedes. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And actually think the money can be better spent than in RF. I think Engel/Leury will be fine in RF, especially with Vaughn in the lineup. Spend the money on pitching. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It can happen to if we went bold. Not sure if we should do it, but it could be done. But you are losing Kopech and Cease for sure. I'd make the Mets eat some of the salary though, maybe take 12 million off that 32 and we take Fam off their hands. Still could sign Bauer and Joc/Springer after unloading EE, Mazara, Rodon, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you did it, have them pay down DeGroms salary by 12 million and use savings to sign Bauer as well. Degrom Bauer Gio DK Who cares It would suck to have those guys come back and bite us, but unlike the other trades we make, we are getting a HOFer in return. Tatis trade sucks because we got hot garbage back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we sign him and he platoons with Engel. I also think the ifa we sign being Cespedes or Colas will be the long term answer. I don’t love or hate Joc but he fits the need.

Yeah, I kind of agree. He'd be an upgrade, but I would prefer a contact hitter for balance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
