For those thinking there will be a major shake-up, that is what we have been proposing for at least the last 2-3 offseasons, waiting and waiting. In all honesty, the main questions are outfield and back-up catcher. Thus, we can propose all these trades but I doubt we get any until ST - doing a wait and see.
I think they will do most of their looking internally. In particular, I would like to see Arias and Rocchio battle it out for SS. For LF, I wouldn't be opposed to Freeman trying to bump Kwan to CF. As a back-up plan, I would also try to start moving Angel Martinez to CF as Bimbo suggested over a year ago. He has 55 Speed per FG. If both fail, you got Halpin in AAA next year and DeLauter not far behind. This isn't the sky is falling scenario. The key is to start to look at these youngsters and get consistent ABs so we don't trade another Jones/Benson thinking we had another solution.
Yes, we maybe able to trade a Bieber or Quantrill and help fill the need, but no one is going to trade full value for a Bieber until they see him in ST healthy. I doubt they will have Bieber start in MLB without another start in Akron on Sunday (get up to 70 pitches) at the earlierst being Sunday, 17th. Then if they call him up, he may get 2 mlb starts on 23rd and 29th (assuming every 6 days). Would you trade an arm and a bat for a guy with just 2 MLB starts??? I would at least want to see a few ST games to make sure he is healthy with 1 year left on contract (and still time to retain the tender qualifying offer status on new team).
As for RHB, a decision needs to be made on Oscar, Rodriquez, Lauerano, Noel and Fry as the possible RHB -- enough to solve the problem that they could have just saved Call for. I left off Calhoun as I assume that ship has sailed. Sorry, at this point, I am not sold on any of them. And, if Rocchio can take the SS position, Arias goes in as an extra bat off the bench. Yet, these guys are a dime a dozen and something that will not fill Tribe FO time this offseason fixing.
For regular RF, you got Valera who is hot as hell. Brennan is just getting to 500 ABs. He still has some hope especially vs RHP if he can learn to stay patient. I will take .300 BA guy if they can draw a few walks. Arias, if he doesn't make it at SS, is always an option. Noel is also heating up as one of the younger AAA guys.
