    I'm not sure Pence can really play the outfield anymore. If you're going to go after him, you might as well go after Castellanos, who has more power out of Comerica.
    Aggression with prospects is fine, but being stupid is not. There should be a way to find a happy medium between a Pirates like idea of being overly cautious with prospects and going stupidly fast with prospects.

    I'm fine with 4 years, but no more than 18 per

    I'm very interested in what the giants do. The team has overachieved lately putting the FO in a pickle.

    I think Pence is much better than Castellanos in the OF.

    AA will probably grab an OFer we haven't talked about much.

    Rosenthal: The #Mets scratched Ervin Santana from his Triple A start today. Syndergaard scheduled to pitch for them in majors tonight. Not known whether two are linked.

    The Mets wanna dip into our prospect stash even if it means trading us Thor and Diaz. Minaya was there watching Anderson and left after 3 innings bc he saw all he needed too. If they are reasonable I think a deal happens with them.

    He has a -5 DRS this year when he's played the outfield and in bigger recent sample sizes it's just not great.

    Alex Gordon and Corey Dickerson remain two guys to watch. Both lefties though, I believe. Both on the last year of their guarantees.

    Gordon brings the veteran/championship leaderyness.

    Zach Wheeler and a nice bullpen piece.
    But it also wouldn’t shock me if we did nothing because of the lack of sellers.I really believe this will be a uneventful deadline and MLB will move it back next season.

    Right, but Castellanos is Kemp-bad.

    I still think Pence is the best/cheapest cOF option.

    Renfroe and Reyes are the same sort of low OBP guys with big power the Braves thought they were getting with Duvall.

    I hope they don't go down that path again, but they could make sense since they both destroy LHP.

    I agree. Wood, Pence, and Leclerc would be a very good, relatively low cost trade deadline that would address all our needs.

    Pretty good point about the trading teams with high asking prices for controllable pieces made today on XM -

    They SHOULD be high enough to make you hurt - it's not their job to make your team better.

    If you want a chance to win, go get players - if you want to hoard prospects, enjoy watching the playoffs with the rest of us.
