jeferson or edgar? either/or.. both?
Was thinking Angel's Edgar as I was just talking the other day about if Angels would be desperate enough to want a Bieber trade where, if so, we would line up good on the 2ndary (with Edgar being that one) and 3rd type prospect but nothing on top to lead the trade other than them throwing in a Detmers who we could keep or turn around and trade. Yet, Jefferson would line up well but the question is if Brewers would part with him even though they just landed Contreras to be back there. But, out of 50 games, he has caught 33 for them and only DHed 4 times. Yet, I would probably want to focus on OF on them. And, I don't know what they will do with their pitching injuries which have June/July timelines to return. I am sure they are in wait and see mode on if they can get their pitchers back to shore it up. It's their relievers that need help (even worse than us 0.0, if possible) FG War. If they want to do Civale for their Quero as a starting point, I would be interested.
Why would you want to put Freeman in RF? His arm is questionable for LF and he has no power. .
Sorry for confusion. I would be fine with getting bats in any way into the line up whether it be Freeman to RF which was in reference to transitioning Westburg in a trade (even though just new to position). Yet, as Freeman doesn't have arm or power, my point was, get him into the OF and be the new Arias super utility guy as that was the role I saw him playing for the last couple years (especially as he hasn't gotten his shot at 2nd here or anywhere for that matter). Then if Arias can cut down on strike outs and keep some power up, I wouldn't mind seeing him in RF or 1B at times (subbing Naylor/Brennan or others). Yes, a power RH bat (that we thought we had in Bell) would be preferable. Yet, for myself, I don't mind having either a .240 30 HR hitter or .300 hitter with 10 HRs. There is a transition place there where both would have equal value. And, if Freeman can do that as a super utility (and get more time playing/subbing LF/SS/2nd, so be it -- let Arias have more time in RF.
I agree but I was looking at a Plesac conversion to pen as our trade piece. Ain't going to get much (5 BTV value) and Santos is now 1.2 BTV but should be higher, Sandlin is 5.6 BTV. But as you said, it is just funny money as each org will have a different value. But, a regular reliever is nothing like Miller trade (that would be Clase and maybe Stephan/Hentges on the lower side of scale of magnitude).What did we give for Miller? A good prospect is not out of the question for a RP. It depends on the RP.
How ironic would it be if all of Bieber, Quantrill and Civale were dealt and Plesac kept. Kind of makes me chuckle, but he the most easily dumped when one of the kids are ready to replace him. Maybe he pitches well and creates some value. I'm not suggesting this is what they do, it was just a funny, random thought.
