...or the like
 
Of course we dont know, that is why Coppy is always in the discussion. If it happens, I assume Coppy will provide quantity moreso than quality. that is why Oakland is such a better partner than others.

I assume 2 SP and 2 others...something like Gohara/Touki/TD/Cruz or lesser pitcher for better position like Touki/Meuller/Pache/TD.

I have no idea what Oakland is thinking though, so I could see nothing happening as much as something. I just think that is what Coppy wants.

Youth, Excitement, High ceiling, balance of veterans, set for next years run when we then add more young pitchng.

What's the price tag on gray?

Reading between the lines of rumors (bad idea) I think Coppy could keep Tehran but thinks he can sell Tehran for parts we are missing (OF, 3B, C prospects) and buy Gray for parts we have duplicates (SP, SS, 2B prospects). He can sell for quality (Fisher) and buy with quantity since he has built up so much depth in the farm.
 
Maybe it's just me, but I am not enamored with Gray. Short RHP who throws hard with a lot of torque on his arm. I think he's an injury waiting to happen.

All available numbers and every scout that has ever seen both play disagree with your take.

I have a recollection that Deester who has seen them both in person a fair amount liked Albies more at short. Hopefully, he will weigh in.
 
Can't ever see them being switched personally - whether it makes sense or not, I'm afraid. Dansby's been identified as the franchise's SS since the day he was acquired.

Many of the people involved with the management team were more than happy with Jeff Blauser at SS years ago - not sure that doesn't answer any questions about a Swanson position change.
