I'd go for buyers if we could trade managers...
Only place on the internets where people are fighting each other after a win.
Fredi is finally going to get on the board this year with his first manager of the year award after being overlooked in 2012 and 2013.

BTW, do y'all think Ciriaco will get an AB before we see him sent back down? Place your bets if you want.

We only do that to pitchers.

We'd probably have an extra win or two if it weren't for Fredi

I know. I was just saying that the Phillies are sick of seeing him bat, period.

Fighting during a win and I wasn't involved. That's why this place is awesome!

They couldn't give him away this offseason. I think I read they were willing to eat all but about $5M and there were no takers

Your presence was a unifying factor. Without it all hell breaks loose.

I could see buying for players that arent half season rentals and selling Chris Johnson and Cameron Maybin in salary dumps. Its hard to say who will even be available at this point. A mega trade for Gomez/Lucroy could take the offense to the next level. Sign one of the aces in the offseason and we could be very good in 2016 if not 2015.

I'd love to get Lucroy but I doubt the Brewers trade him. He would make a big difference because he is such a great catcher, both on offense and defense.
MLBTR: "The Brewers are telling other clubs that injured catcher Jonathan Lucroy is not available via trade, ESPN.com’s Buster Olney reports on Twitter. It is early, of course, and that stance could presumably always change with the right offer, but Milwaukee is presumably less than thrilled with the prospect of parting with perhaps its highest-value asset. The very same thing that makes Lucroy so appealing to the rest of the league — his top-level offensive and defensive production in an up-the-middle position at a bargain rate for multiple years — also make him an obvious player to build around in either a go-for-it or reloading scenario. Assuming his club option is picked up, the 28-year-old will earn just $12.25MM from the start of this season through 2017."
BTW, do y'all think Ciriaco will get an AB before we see him sent back down? Place your bets if you want.
I will place my bet that he plays 1 inning in right field, never getting a ball hit his way, and never gets a chance to bat. He will then retire from baseball, obtain his medical license, and start his own practice in Chisholm, MN.

Funny. He already played an inning at third and had a ball hit to him on the first pitch. So that bet won't play. You're welcome to bet again though.

I'd offer a big name starting pitching prospect for Lucroy personally but I am not interested in trading for Gomez. I'd also include Bethancourt in a deal for Lucroy too. But again it seems they are not interested in trading him and even if so I am not sure what it would take to get him. Maybe too much as you say.
