What would it take to get someone like Benintendi he plays left field and looks like a good offensive player MLB has him listed as one of the players that would probably be traded I’ve seen a couple people here say they’d like Benintendi. How would you arrange the lineup with him in it? |

Trey Mancini, RF, is a FA after the season. If Baltimore was for a change sensible in their asking price, should the Astros be interested? Brantley LF, Tucker CF, Mancini RF. Mancini can play 1b |

The ideal trade scenario for Andrew Benintendi would be let Jake Odorizzi pitch a couple games and see if the Royals would bite on Jake and McCormick for Benintendi.
Then you would move Brantley to 1B. Yuli would then be the odd man out and you would see if you could add something of another player for the future or RP to go in our BP.
If you didn't want Brantley at 1B you would try and make a move for a 1B like Bell of the Nationals and do a Uber platoon Tucker Benintendi and Brantley with yordan circulation

Odorizzi, Meyers and McCormick for half a year of Benetendi is a lopsided deal.

Any way you look at it this offense is too inconsistent to compete with the big boys at this time. To be shut down after the game they had yesterday.

Put Yordan at 1B or DH already. He’s not an outfielder.

How would you arrange the lineup with him in it? I would put him third and drop Bregman down leave Tucker at his position At this point I think Gurriel is getting to be the odd man out. What's with Brantley DH more. That should be Alverez DH. he is terrible in the field. |

That should be Alverez DH. he is terrible in the field. Yuli’s production has nosedived. As much as I think Bregman is disappointing and that Maldy is awful, Yuli has had the worst performance on the team respective to his position. Whatever corrects this situation is the right move. |

I've had a feeling for alittle while this would come. On Yulis perduction.
I mean Brantley isn't to far behind him. Even though he hits alittle better. Age is a problem.
Benintendi would be perfect for the Astros to take over in LF. Yordan is an OK OFer I doubt he will ever play 1b.
Brantley needs a look there if they go get Benintendi

Then what would you trade for him He is not the right solution for our situation. In my opinion we are really lacking in offensive production from catcher and first base. Fix those two issues and we can shuffle through the center field situation until one of the four long term candidates proves themselves out. If one of them does that is, and if not then it is next year's problem. |

Yuli's contact profile does have some red flags, but not to the point that I think he can't turn things around. Notably as well his BAbip is .248, a full 50 points below his career mark. Things could get better with him.

If one of them does that is, and if not then it is next year's problem. I would leave CF alone. Let Siri and Meyers fight that spot out use McCormick to find other help. To me 1B, C and LF will be our problem going forward. Josh Bell Andrew Benintendi would fix it were we can wait it out on C. Maybe our farm can produce that Catcher. But grabbing the two above would go along way. Royals need Pitching this is why I would think we could use Odorizzi or even a Urquidy to nab Benintendi. Nationals need young blood. They are building around Soto. Idk what it would take to get him but he wouldnt be a bad add.Bell that is. I think we could get something for Yuli maybe a flip to Toronto for Biggio. Idk |

I can almost guarantee you that Click wouldn’t re-sign either Bell or Benintendi. |

Things could get better with him. It obviously would be the best fix for Yuli to fix his issues on his own. The question is how long do we go on with the hope that he does so. The clear answer to me is a time that is short of the trade deadline. |

Our biggest issue all season has been a lack of offensive production from the catcher. That should be priority #1. The second priority should be first base. If Yuli can fix his issues or if the law of chance starts to play in his favor then great we can turn our attention to additional production for the outfield.
Clearly though the clock has to be ticking on Yuli.

Clearly though the clock has to be ticking on Yuli. I can’t stand Maldy’s bat but he doesn’t bat ahead of Tucker like Yuli. Besides, it’s harder to find teams willing to part with catchers who can hit and also call a game even if they bat a lot better than our god-awful catchers. While I think there’s easily a catcher you can find who hits better than those guys, I don’t think it’ll help as much as improving on a low-.600 OPS hitting 1B, which is easier to acquire. |

There is a lot to be said for Maldonado's overall performance. Offensively though he is historically bad. Yuli may pull himself out of the abyss that he finds himself in as Ash has pointed out. Both spots have to be fixed and whether it is internally or externally it has to be done before we go into the stretch run. We have to get one more WS title before we go into a rebuild or significant retooling. |

I can almost guarantee you that Click wouldn’t re-sign either Bell or Benintendi. I think he would resign both those players. And I don't think it would cost that much. I mean think about it. Josh Bell for Jose Urquidy, Taylor Jones, and a mid prospect maybe some International cash. The Andrew Benintendi for Odorizzi, McCormick and a PTBNL. Then we are looking at a 27yr old at about 12m a year. 5 years. With moving away from Yuli Brantley and Odorizzi that would almost be 30 million With Josh Bell it's alittle trickier. This could seemingly be his last contract so a 3yr deal should suffice with a couple team options for a 4th and 5th year. He currently makes 10m so I think he would be looking for close to that if not more. So same contract 3yr 12m per with a player option on his 3rd year and two team options on a 4th and 5th year |

To add to that see if the Blue Jays would be intreasted in Yuli Gurriel and Forrest Whitley for Cavan Biggio and Vinnie Paquantino
