Because he showed me last year that he is clearly on the back 9 of his career and heading for the clubhouse as fast as possible!!
just looking for a pay day along the way!!!!
1.) we sign Alonso for 1B. Casas to Worcester.
2.) we sign short stop Kim and move story to 2nd base. Mayer to 3b. Improves infield defense a lot!!!
3.) trade Duran and young pitchers for a number 2 starter!!
Arizona and Boston talked Marte and exchanged names has been reported.
what if bres-slow is trying to expand the trade? Is there someone else Arizona has that would interest bres-slow??
Starting pitching depth chart, my best guess:
1) Crochet
2) Gray
3) Bello
4) Crawford
5) Sandoval
6) Oviedo
7) Early
8) Tolle
9) Dobbins
10) Harrison
11) Uberstine
12) Drohan
13) Perales
14) Witherspoon
15) Phillips
16) Eyerson
the first 9 look pretty good. But the drop off from 1 to 2 is huge!!
Arizona wants 2 pitchers for Marte. Seems like bello and cutter (or Oviedo) could get that deal done !!!!
We have an offer out therefor 4 years to Alonso. The market for Alonso is soft!
if I were Alonso, I would leverage that offer to get an offer from the Mets!!
