I imagine Paco will be on the 60-day, right? Maybe Grilli, too?

DL can't be used in off season

nope, that is how we got Winkler. the Roxs forgot how much we love TJS and left him unprotected.

My only concern about that is the potential for him to get dinged up at 2B.

I see your ding and raise you strain on the elbow from throws to first from third. (Although I admit your scenario is more likely.) That said, I WOULD appreciate at least a look, if only because AT PRESENT Garcia looks > Peterson/Castro on a daily basis, and I have, uh, a hard time picturing Garcia at second.

Adonis would be a solid DH for us... but we don't have that luxury.

Maybe we can ship Adonis off as trade bait? He won't have the value or time Gattis put in, but he's still solid.

The team will have to make some choices in that regard. I'm assuming Detwiler, Edwin Jackson and Marimon will definitely be gone. Jackson is a free agent. Not sure about Detwiler, but even if he isn't I don't think we'll be keeping him.

After that we will probably have to let go of two more guys if we sign 3 FA relievers, 1 starter and 1 catcher this off-season. If we add Gant to the 40-man (and I think this is likely) the number currently on the 40-man who will have to be moved off increases to three.

The choices for who to move off the 40-man will come from Burawa, Kelly, Cunniff, Cabrera, Weber, McKirahan, Marksberry, Lavernway, Cunningham and Eury Perez. My guess is that Burawa, Kelly and McKirahan are the three most likely to be moved off from this group.

I'm not sure of Moylan's status. I believe he is in year 1 of a 2-year minor league deal that guarantees him an invite to major league camp. I'm assuming he will not be on the 40-man.

Why does Jackson have to be gone? He's been pretty good if anything he could be the new varvaro
