Looks like Seattle is having a all out clearance sale. Wonder what it would take to pry Haniger loose from them. He would make a nice replacement for Tucker should Kyle be moved for Realmuto or a SP.

If the Phillies land Machado, they’re in the running for best infield in baseball.

Apparently Salvador Perez will not likely be traded according to MLB Trade Rumors. This is what they have to say:
One guy not likely to be on the move is Salvador Perez. The story has not changed for Salvy and the Royals, whose price for Perez is “so exorbitant no team would meet it,” per the Athletic’s Rustin Dodd (subscription link). While teams around the league would certainly check in on Perez were he to become available, it is unlikely anyone values him as highly as the Royals.

The Mets and Mariners trader is official. Our turn to make some moves. 1. Sign Morton 2. Sign Cruz 3. Sign Ramos 4. Sign McCutchen. 5. Sign or trade for a starting pitcher.......signing Eovaldi is probably workable. That's a lot of money for all those FAs is my only concern. Short-term money, hopefully, but still a lot of money. Hard to get Springer or the pitchers signed to an extension. I don't see us improving the roster without trading some prospects. |

At this point, I just hope we get a clear offensive upgrade at C, LF, or DH, and an extra SP (preferably not Eovaldi). I think more than that and we're expecting the FO to act like the Yankees, which won't happen.
Give me Cruz and Morton with what we already have, and I think we have a great 2019 without hurting the future. We can make trades during the season as we see areas we need to upgrade, but our division rivals are looking weaker and weaker. We don't need to win the WS during the regular season, we just need to take the division. Win the division and make a trade or two during the summer to get us ready for the postseason. Save some money and go big in the offseason next year.
We'll have had 2019 to see if James, Framber, Tucker, Whitley, White, have future value or not.

It won't take much to upgrade the offense we got from the catching position. I still want them to make Marwin a reasonable offer to stay. |

They need a healthy arm to replace some of the healthy arms they've lost. I'm more and more concerned about Ramos and the lack of attention he is getting. I'm wondering if there are more health concerns. I'm more leaning towards the proven healthy Cruz and then seeing what Stassi and Stubbs can do. Cervelli is becoming more of an interesting piece but we don't seem to be looking at him. |

But at the end of the day, our catching production was pretty much average compared to the rest of the league. It's not what held us back. We need more from DH or LF, imo. If they want to go with Tucker so be it, but get a proven DH so we're not reliant on White repeating and/or Gurriel showing more power. |

I know there have been rumors of Luhnow going after both Realmuto and Goldschmidt in trades this offseason. It will require giving up Tucker in a package to get Realmuto. Since Seattle is in a “sell” mode, and if Haniger could be obtained from the Mariners by trading prospects that are under consideration for trading to Arizona for Goldschmidt, I think I would rather see Luhnow trade for Haniger now to replace Tucker and try to sign Goldschmidt next offseason.

Even signing one would mean that everything would have to work out in order for us to be serious contenders for a World Series berth. Our only real chance in my mind would be out score our opponents. It is highly doubtful that Haniger will get traded to the Astros because of the level of team control he has left. So we have to load up with Grandal/Ramos, Cruz, and Goldschmidt. No way Goldschmidt costs Tucker for only one year of control. At the worst he would cost White, Perez, and Martin. That way we have a slugger's chance of winning it all again. |

So some interesting news.
Strong feeling Goldy/Greinke will both be traded to Houston during the Winter Meetings
For some reason it wont post who ot qhen it was posted?
Adam from Arizona sports news last night posted it.
Says look at the way the Mets moved cash and think the same way.
Yuli and Joe Smith could be going back Idk if that's true.
Another note. Tucker looks like he might be traded sooner rather then later.
But who knows if its J.T.Realmuto.
Although there is a love feast for him as a need player the Astros want. Look out for Snydegaard.
Apparently the Mets asked for Tucker Kemp and a Picthcing Prospect not name Whitley

Can I ask you a question? Would you take Santana along with Haniger for let's say Joe Smith and some prospects? Or even Seager? I doubt they trade Haniger straight up any where. But I also dont trust Haniger and his one year of greatness. But that's me. |

Yeah, but if we can't outscore most of baseball with a healthy Altuve, Correa, Springer, Bregman, Gurriel, and an addition like Nelson Cruz, we probably weren't going to outscore people anyways. If Goldschmidt can be had for some prospects that don't include a top pitching prospect or Tucker, I'm okay with it. I just think we have other areas to improve before a 1B rental. We can improve DH and LF through free agency easily and for reasonable money (plus a pitcher like Morton or Buchholz, etc.), and then use Tucker and some other prospects to go trade for a top pitcher like Syndergaard with multiple years of control so we can contend past just 2019. |

Thor; has yet to have a 200IP season, I say keep the top prospects and focus on offering contracts to Verlander and Cole. If they can keep Verlander through 2021 and Cole to 2024, then that really expands the window the Astros have being the top in the AL West....plus, they don't trade away any top prospects, ones they will need. |
