I really think we need to move away from the idea of trading any of our starting position players. We simply don't have the resources or depth to effectively replace them with certainty. Ender, Camargo, Dansby, whoever... I don't think any of them are going anywhere.

Ohhhhhhhh snap this is huge. We need to be all over Dietrich. He fits our bench like a freaking glove.

Edit: I should say, I don't think he is the greatest fit out there from a baseball standpoint. But from a cost of acquisition to value point of view, he's a fantastic fit.

Mariners and padres working on a deal that would send Jean Seguria and Mike Leake to the Padres for Wil Myers

I can understand wanting to dump payroll, but why would anyone want Myers and that Gawd awful contract??

Segura has averaged 4 WAR over the last 3 years and is on a very reasonable deal. He has got to have pretty nice value. Leake has negative value, but at least he can be bought out by 2021. Myers is nothing but negative value with a contract that doesn't expire til 2023. I the M's are only saving like 7ish million a year (my math could be wrong). What a terrible, terrible trade for Seattle.

Don’t know the details yet to say either way, but there seems to be a surplus of glove first shortstops they could get cheap to replace Segura.
There was also a reported rift with he and management.

a good bench option...there are others such as Walker...my guess is AA waits until prices drop to sign one of them
