Yuli AND a prospect for Cavan Biggio? LMAO. I never said it would happen. I said try. I would trade yuli as fast as I can of the above went down. I was talking to house of houston for about two hours this morning the only hard part would be the last part Yuli The rest as far as players could be done. Gotta remember you can front load some of those contracts to help you down the road. |

Lemme ask this. If you could sign Morton Sp 2yr option on last, Cruz DH 2yr , Happ Sp 2yr option on last, Robertson RP 3yr, Kelly RP 3yr and Dieteich OF 4yr Trade for Thor, J.T.Realmuto and Goldschmidt Not give up Whitley and Tucker or Bear And some how some way I understand it could be a long shot send Yuli with a prospect to Toronto for Cavan Biggio. How would you feel about that roster? I am not going to think about it because it won't happen. lf that was pulled off, we have no excuses not to win the WS. not sure why you want Dietrich |

Why would you want Biggio? Why? Why not? Biggio has a good bat. Would be closer to Dad and can play pretty good def. Could switch him to SS |

He hits left handed plays LF and can cover guys for days off. Not a bad bat to have if you could have it. Also insurance on Tucker |

Could switch him to SS (1) You call a .249 lifetime minor league hitter a good bat? (2) When we fail on this awful nepotistic exercise, you really want have bad blood between the team and the Biggio family, after we release him? Put down the pipe VooDoo. |

Ok so early indications are Paul Goldschmidt will be traded. They think along the lines of the McCutchen trade from Pirates to Giants maybe Little more Crick, Reynolds(there number 4 prospect)and slot money.
If that's the case
So Cional Perez, Jairo Solis, Joe Perez and Derek Fisher?
This was on Espn this morning

If that's the case So Cional Perez, Jairo Solis, Joe Perez and Derek Fisher? This was on Espn this morning So Goldschmidt (19 -$14.5M) for:
C. Perez [R P5] (19-CC,20-CC,21-CC or S2,22-A, 23-A,24-A)
J. Solis [P10] (19-CC,20-CC,21-CC or S2,22-A, 23-A,24-A)
J. Perez [P23] (19-CC,20-CC,21-CC or S2,22-A, 23-A,24-A)
D. Fisher [R] (19-CC,20-CC,21-CC or S2,22-A, 23-A,24-A)
139 OPS+ replaces 108 OPS+ Guriel to be replaced or moves to DH or Goldie moves to DH replacing Gattis 101 OPS+.
It improves the 2019 squad, but at a price for the next 5 years. If you think there is only a short window rather than long term sustainable success, then you go for it. But I want the sustained success. This would have made more sense before setting the roster.
I don't think having him in 2019 has any effect on prospects of having him beyond 2019 when he's going for the GOLD.

Astros going hard for an OFer.
A.J. Potluck, Micheal Brantley or Andrew McCutchen are the likely Targets.
Note Polluck will get the Highest Contract.would move Springer to RF Reddick to LF.
Brantley and McCutchen to LF.
Word is they dont know if Tucker will be ready for full time duty.
Which leaves the door open to sign one of those guys

If Pollock has still got it, that improves our outfield defense. Let’s just hope he doesn’t go on the DL for a papercut or something.

Like I said before it's looking like Goldschmidt with a Hard offer for and one of those three OF.
I wouldnt mind Polluck but I would bet on Brantley

I wouldnt mind Polluck but I would bet on Brantley The problem is Brantley gets hurt too but has a great approach at the plate. Pollock has a higher ceiling. When healthy in 2015, he was an MVP candidate. |

So do you think it comes down to maybe getting Polluck and trading for Goldschmidt hoping that Gildschmidt signs a extension?
Might not be a bad Idea.
But 5yrs would be to long. Wouldnt it?
5yrs 80m.
Or Brantley 4years 60m
Or Andrew McCutchen 2yr 30
Pick ur poison I guess

When we start handing out lucrative contracts, Springer should be the first to get one. His contract is up first, followed by Correa and Bregman. Right now, I think Bregman is more important than Correa. |

Well Olney and a couple of respected Sports writers are saying there could be offers already on the Table for atleast one of them.
I'm not making any of this it's on insider

It’s unclear whether the Diamondbackswill trade their franchise player, first baseman Paul Goldschmidt, though Buster Olney of ESPN (subscription required) hears from rival evaluators that they are “intent” on dealing the 31-year-old. While Goldschmidt has consistently been one of the majors’ best players during his career, it’s unlikely the Diamondbacks would receive a significant haul in exchange for his final year of team control, observes Olney, who notes that most contenders aren’t seeking a first baseman. But St. Louis and Houston continue to show a good amount of interest in Goldschmidt, per Olney, which jibes with a previous report from Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. Olney adds that rival clubs believe the Astros have seemingly tried to move young right-hander J.B. Bukauskas, their eighth-ranked prospect at MLB.com, in trade talks. Similarly, the Yankees were “pushing” left-handed pitching prospect Justus Sheffield in Goldschmidt discussions, Olney reports. Sheffield’s no longer in the picture for New York, though, as it traded him to Seattle this week in a deal for lefty James Paxton.
Back to Houston, which has been shopping near the top of the market for free-agent outfielders, according to Olney, who lists A.J. Pollock, Andrew McCutchen and Michael Brantley among their targets. Unless the Astros deem soon-to-be 22-year-old prospect Kyle Tucker ready for a full-time role, they have an opening in the outfield, where George Springerand Josh Reddick are their only obvious starters. Signing Pollock, a center fielder, would enable them to move Springer back to a corner after he spent the majority of 2017-18 in center. Pollock’s likely to rake in the biggest payday of the trio, though; further, given that Pollock comes with a qualifying offer attached, adding him would also cost the Astros their second-highest draft pick in 2019 and $500K in international pool space.
This is one of them but the other is pay for info crap.

So you guys can make angry faces and talk about Springer needing a long term contract and all but this is what is going down as we speak.
There is another article stating that Nelson Cruz could already have an offer on the Table from the Astros but is waiting for some wierd reason.

I do believe Tucker will be traded for Realmuto that's why there is this conversation aswell.............

Post by m240 on Nov 26, 2018 7:16:29 GMT -6
If we sign one of the first tier free agent outfielders you can count on Tucker being traded for either Syndergaard or Realmuto.
