Extremely valuable defensively

Right now, Heyward is not as valuable as Pollock. Doesn't mean he won't eventually reach his level but until then Pollock is the better player

I disagree

Wow Price to Red Sox. $217M over 7 years. That does nothing but help Shelby's value

How about Shelby and Markakis for Soler and Castro

Meadows would be a great target.

It's fine to dream on Seager but you all need to realize there is zero chance the Dodgers or any team would trade him for Shelby Miller. And that's not even close to a knock on Shelby.

good move

Because when you're in a rebuild like we are he is exactly the type of player we should be bringing in. He's a huge talent but clearly hasn't put it together yet. But he's only 25 and made some strides last year. So yes, the mediocrity of a 25 year old very talented player with big upside is...

Yes yes yes. He's exactly the type of guy we should be targeting and fills a black hole for us.

Yea that's way too optimistic in my opinion. The guy is nothing more then a AAAA player or bat off the bench

Well I disagree with your value of Shelby. If we trade him and had a smarter front office we would get a big return. My point is your not getting a potential superstar power CF in Joc PLUS a top 20 overall prospect in De Leon for Shelby. You're not going to get a guy like Joc who just...

You're not getting Joc Pederson plus De Leon.

De Leon, Verdugo, and Barnes for Shelby. Then sign me up

We need to stop talking about Seager. There is no team in baseball that would trade Seager for Miller and that's not a knock on Shelby

My point was to grab him and put his power arm in the bullpen where many people have expected him to land.

We should be focused on clearing his salary. He'll be a solid player this year but it's the final 2 years of the deal which are a problem. I think we'll get a solid prospect or two but nothing high end.

Pirates have picked up Allen Webster. Another head scratcher we didn't go after him. Huge arm and talent but obviously has struggled putting it together. He's the type of guy we should be targeting.

The problem is Hart/Coppy have severely limited how we can build an offense. The crap Olivera trade now that he can't play 3B and Markakis for the next 3 years in RF blocks two logical spots where we could target young high impact bats. We essentially have to completely ignore the OF when...

Teoscar Hernandez is perfect for this team. Very intriguing power/speed combo and can play all 3 OF spots. I'm going to be FURIOUS if he's there for us in Rule 5 draft and we pass on him. But I know we will.
