ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 QUOTE (hi8is @ Nov 27, 2016 -> 03:33 PM) http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/red_sox...radeable_pieces I would prefer to explore someone like Mike Zunino, who although he can't seem to hit over .200, has huge power, but most importantly, plays really good defense and is a good pitch framer. Swihart has rated below average so far in his short career. Might give the Mariner's a chance to stretch Edwin Diaz back out to starting like he was prior to June of 2016 (now that they moved Walker), or maybe see if Diaz can be a 2-inning Andrew Miller type guy before Robertson comes in to close. Who the hell knows, but them trading Walker and Marte for Segura suggests they might be trying to win now.

caulfield12 Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Christina Kahrl on what the Giants should do if they can't afford Cespedes/elite closer: My thought? Place a priority on getting one of the closers on the market. And then, to give the offense a boost, I’d be fascinated to see the Giants go to the Minnesota Twins to talk about Brian Dozier, because second base is a place where the Giants don’t have a long-term financial commitment, yet they could make a massive upgrade on offense without having to spend anything like what it would cost in cash to buy Cespedes on the open market to add a right-handed power bat. Start with second baseman Joe Panik and shortstop Christian Arroyo, put Ty Blach and whoever else from the prospect pile into the conversation on the pitching side of things, and see if the Twins listen. And maybe then get in on a late-market loser from among the many corner outfielders on the market, any one of whom might settle for signing short-term with San Francisco to get a shot at winning, having failed to get the huge multiyear money he expected. But if the Twins don’t talk and the closers walk, go to the Chicago White Sox to talk about a multiplayer package to get David Robertson to close and Adam Eaton or Melky Cabrera to play left. http://www.espn.com/blog/sweetspot/post/_/...all-in-for-2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait awhile and every rumor will be updated with a different one: Edwin Encarnacion may soon follow Cespedes's lead and end his free agency by this week, his agent tells TSN's Rick Westhead. The Toronto Blue Jays were “showing Edwin the most love.” The Boston Red Sox and Houston Astros are also in the running, according to Olney. http://www.si.com/mlb/2016/12/01/rumors-ne...ts-deals-trades Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
