Seriously. You aren't getting lawler for a bunch of castoffs. You aren't getting him at all anyway, because AZ is cutting budget and he's cheap, but you certainly aren't getting him for three mediocre players.
How does one force their way on the roster if they aren't playing because Larnach is? Which two OF are you benching, Jenkins, Keaschell or ERod?
Roden outhit Larnach and can play defense.
I don't care about the money, it's about ceiling and defense and the future.
They mostly have, but I'm guessing Falvey left because he wasn't allowed to sell..... Now there's a yes man, trading away the future for last year's team.... And now than a few others have left or been forced out.
Like not trading Ryan for Tolle and Arias? The Brewers, Cleveland, and Tampa stay good because they trade for young players. Colorado had the worst FO in baseball for years.
Buxton, Keaschell, Jenkins, ERod, Martin, Roden (who outhit and out Ds Larnach) are all on the roster.....and Clemons can play OF too. How much depth do you want, exactly?
What are you trading ERod for? What does balance the roster mean? You also have Keaschel, Martin, and Roden.....
I have no idea why people want to keep a LF who can't field.
Let him go. He can't field. They have four OF besides him already.
I'm sure a huge number will come here saying keep him..... But those same people say keep everyone. Everyone on a team that hasn't won in two years.
This.
I mean, I expect Houston to be in Minnesota after half a year. So Clemens can move to first then.
I'm fairly certain Tommy boy will trade for a first or second baseman, giving up real value for a short term player.
