November 21, 201510 yr QUOTE (GreenSox @ Nov 21, 2015 -> 12:09 AM) If people want Ozuna so badly, trade Avi for him. Change of destination trade. Both have basically sucked: too little OBP and too many Ks. We've been through this, why would the Marlins want Avi when they already have their corners filled?

November 21, 201510 yr QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Nov 21, 2015 -> 12:13 AM) We've been through this, why would the Marlins want Avi when they already have their corners filled? Can't answer that. But I also can't answer why we would want someone off of a sub . 700 OPS, and in whose " big year" had a sub .720 OBP and 150+ strikeouts.
November 21, 201510 yr Thinking a deal like that leaves plenty of money to spend mid season. Ozuna is simply an upgrade over avi is all, not really the feature component if you add Fernandez to become the best rotation in baseball with no starter making big money. More interested in gordon for what he does to the top of the lineup. Rolling with sanchez is fine if we upgrade massively elsewhere. I just hope they spend 150M or deal everyone to houston/Boston/pitt for 6-8 top prospects, bogarets types. Anything in the middle is an 81 win team with robin at the helm.

Both have basically sucked: too little OBP and too many Ks. You could try to make that trade but with the Marlins wanting starting pitching in return for ozuna it probably won't work for avi. The main point is why does anyone want ozuna. It's not a one of the main position of need and trading to get him would not make sense and wood be poor choice to spend what little resources this organization has.
November 21, 201510 yr Correction 6-8 prospects headlinedby 2-3 guys proving it early on at the big league level like bogarets

Anything in the middle is an 81 win team with robin at the helm. yes they need to do that and smartly.... with some players and contracts being smart, in other words, stagger so it will come off in different yrs, to go with the prospects graduating to the big leagues. anyway, 2 contracts comes off the book at the end of the 16 season, danks and laroche, ball park 25 mil, so in essence the 150 mil is for 1 season and depending on their accounted does it the gain / lost can be a trade off with the contracts coming off at the end of the season.
November 21, 201510 yr They discussed this topic on csn and we're just clowning the Sox....sad times that all were good for is a laugh.
