Giants would still seem to be a fit. A's if Piscotty deal falls through.

I'm not sure 2 years of Avi makes sense for the A's. Piscotty is signed for 5 years with an option for a 6th so I kinda get that one.

After Piscotty goes to the A's, there's still Yelich, McCutchen and the free agent outfielders available.

Hopefully the Red Sox can lock up JDM soon. Would he DH mostly though? I thought I read that Hanley is moving back to 1B next season. IF JDM is in the OF, then Bradley is available even more.

Yawn. I'm bored.

Yeah. That one Winter Meetings where there was like 20 trades and then the Meetings last year spoiled us. It's the last full day and there's been minimal action.

Jon Heyman‏Verified account @JonHeyman 1m1 minute ago Marlins are regrouping now and plan to talk to Christian Yelich about how he feels about staying. He’s frustrated to see 3 best friends/top players go. So he may say he wants to go, which may trigger trade of him, too.

 

They could wait until the deadline too. Or next off-season.

Does he have any sort of no trade in his contract?

It appears not.

Did you know Harper owns a Chicago Bulls shirt? That can't be a coincidence.

 

He was hanging out with Kris Bryant, a friend from the same town he grew up in! And has a dog named Wrigley!/green

Typically in a very early extension like that, this is not something that is usually there. No trades come in with players that are closer to 10/5 status.

If the Marlins trade Yelich, I really hope Ichiro is at least brought back as a semi-every day player.

Yeah, I know. I was just wondering if the Marlins old FO did something stupid like that. They have a record of not always making the best decisions.

Sox should be all over Yelich. I don't know the logistics though.

Cost to acquire Yelich likely is very very high. 25 year old quality center fielders under control for 5 years generally do not get traded.

Think Adam Eaton package.

Good lord. Seriously?

Of course ( edit - it might be less if he demands a trade )
