The 815 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I would assume Danks and Viciedo are gone for low level prospects and Rodon and Johnson will battle for #5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Dec 13, 2014 -> 11:45 PM) Quintana is good. Melky is is probably not anymore. He was just fine last season and the season before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venom4789 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 So let me see if i get this right, Mariners are thinking about trading for vicedo, Mariners then turn their sights to melky cabera, White sox sign melky, ..... How great would it be if the last part is filled in with the mariners trade for vicedo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamshack Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Dec 13, 2014 -> 09:45 PM) Why? I would have preferred Kemp, just never cared for Melky as a player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BaconOnAStick Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 He was just fine last season and the season before He was a train wreck in 13. I don't have a problem with him getting caught, I have a problem with how getting caught has affected him as a player. Look, I gotta accept it and root for the guy starting now. The way it is, I'm along for the ride. #teammelky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

professa Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 This is just my opinion, but if I'm Rick Hahn, I keep Viciedo as a power guy off the bench. He can spell LaRoche against lefties (I know, Viciedo hasn't hit lefties well since 2012, but still) and is a good insurance policy due to the injury history of Melky and Avisail. If one of those two gets injured, that means Jordan Danks is your starting LF/RF, and that is not a good first outfield option off the bench for a playoff contender.

I don't think we can afford the 4th OF to be so bad at defense. This team still needs a ton of defensive help. I'd like to see them be aggressive with late inning replacements to protect leads this year. I'd honestly rather have Danks than Viciedo.

Jose Abreu Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Now watch us go sign Ichiro as our 4th OF, trade for Tyler Clippard... it sounds completely unrealistic, but so did signing Melky to a 3/45 deal after this week's moves.

The 4th OF has to be able to run and defend. I get where you're coming from and you're not wrong, but Viciedo just doesn't profile as a guy you can enter the game in multiple secnarios.

GGajewski18 Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 If its true about the 3/45 contract. That is the perfect amount of years. Just turned 30, so we won't be committed into a deep deal with an aging player. I wouldn't be mad about a 4th year either. Incredible.

BaconOnAStick Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 (edited) Judging by Rick Hahn's sleep schedule I'd say he's a college sophomore resigned to his fate of flunking out of school.
