Any further word on this fire sale rumor? I'll be honest, it's wildly intriguing. The team was pretty much screwed by this pandemic- this really was the last go round for this core, the team was looking at a modest rebuild after this year anyway but lost out on the time to develop replacements. Just going scorched watch and maybe, possibly taking advantage of a deeper pocketed team that is willing to sacrifice to win in this shortened season and load up on prospects seems like an intriguing idea. About the only 'vet' I don't want to see go is Santana.
Personally I don't think we will be fire selling at all. We have too good if a roster to be doing that. Though that being said, guys like Carlos Santana, Brad Hand etc who have a team option year will get cut for next season if they have a bad season. Also we wont be able to spend a penny in free agency next season outside of minor league invites with incentives. Who will be Hernandez's replacement, i have no clue at the current moment. We also may not be able to extend Clev now as well.
