Where will Justin Upton land? Orioles are somewhat reasonable, Yankees if they trade Gardner. Rangers, White Sox, Giants, Tigers, Angels?

 

Rangers? They have a glut of OFers, that doesnt make any sense

Isn't Gardner just a more expensive and older version of Eaton?

 

That's what I see him as. Gardner's power definitely played into that ballpark as well imo.

 

Comparing contracts, Pablo Sandoval (same age as Upton when given big contract) got 5/99 from the Red Sox. However, Pablo is coming off 3 WS titles I believe, I don't know if he was part of the first one though.

 

So, imo, I think that would be the starter for Upton. I'd do 5/100 for Upton.

 

Trade for Frazier and Norris.

 

Then you have a formidable offense.

 

I think those 3 additions, a better start to the year, not trading Q to get these 3 players.

 

I think this team could make some huge noise next year.

Yep!

 

But that doesn't mean we couldn't use a second Eaton that's a bit older and more expensive.

 

No reason to give up assets to trade for an older and more expensive version of Eaton. Spend the money, and get one of the top 3 OFs.

Not at all and I'm not saying stop. I've stated my mock where we sign 3 guys and trade for Puig. This team doesn't have the talent to stand pat. They just don't. They have to make moves.

 

Alright we're on the same page. Sounded like you were in the it's all over camp.
