caulfield12 Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 Josh Bell, Happ, Contreras, Drury…statistically the current top of the trade market, those four guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy U Posted June 25, 2022 Share Posted June 25, 2022 I would hate to give up any tangible assets to chase a playoff bid for this pitiful team. If it were part of a major restructure — you trade assets and use money to get Soto on a long term deal — sure. But trading anything for half a year of Chris Drury for a team going nowhere? That seems insane. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems insane. If you go through all the Top 30 ops leaders, Brandon Drury might be the most obscure. 29 and LH, so younger than Cesar Hernandez, but certainly less experience in the AL obviously. Turning 30 in August. Versatility but not an outfielder as well like Adam Frazier. -0.5 fWAR combined for the last three seasons. Suddenly on a pace for roughly 4 fWAR. Cheap as dirt contract. FA at the end of this season…all that sounds quite familiar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That seems insane. I also don't want to be in a position where Tony has any influence over who we're giving up and who we're getting back. You shouldn't get to pick the music if you're leaving the party soon anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He hits righties at 792 and lefties at 974 so would be the third biggest threat after Vaughn and Anderson…on paper. Vaughn 843, Anderson 793. Adam Frazier, while LH, is equally bad both ways, .580 and .582. Benintendi 825 against RHP but low 600’s against lefties. Other than Josh Bell, he’s probably the best available LH option.
