Dodgers Official Offseason - Trade Talk Thread

[GibbyIsMyHero]

Trumbo is a thumper, but that's about all he's good for. He's got a career OBP of right about .300 and struck out 150+ times last season.

With all his power, he could be a great project for McGwire, but you can't plug him at 3rd. Over 8 games at 3rd last year, he committed 4 errors in only 63 innings. When they stopped using him there, he had a fielding percentage of .714 - eeeeewwwww, right?

As for Seager, yes that would be great, but I think Gibby23 is right. It doesn't make sense for either team. We'd have to propose something with starting pitchers included. Besides, Corey projects better as a 3rd base prospect, and as a better prospect than his brother. That could lead to some ethical dilemma in the future.

Best bet would be a short term vet. Youk would've worked. If similar players are available via trade that's what we should pursue. If not, ask Hanley to move there and pursue a shortstop. If all else fails, give Cruz another shot. If nothing else, he's at least earned an opportunity to show he wasn't a fluke

the angels will not trade trumbo unless it is for a superstar like kemp, kersh and so on

We need Headley. Not going to happen, i know. But that would be awesome.

I think you're thinking of Trout... Trumbo is nowhere NEAR that good

[choloface]

Probably nothing but Dee gordon just tweeted this. Anybody on Miami worth trading for?

Dee Gordon ‏@FlashGJr

I'm talking about going to Miami for the weekend people...

[DodgerB24]

People were probably thinking a Gordon deal for Stanton.

[Tymathee]

i like the idea of moving Hanley to 2nd base as soon as possible, those scary throws he makes wont be as scary from there.

and more importantly could i get a reference to something that says the mariners want Dee

just cuz he can play SS (which he can't) doesn't mean he can play 2B (he'd be horrible)

U dont need alot of range aat 3B as u do at 2B or SS, he's best at 3B, he has the arm and he always overthrows from SS lol

[lamar2006]

how bout Asdrubal then? What will it take to get him? Gordon, Lee, Reed, Pederson?? move back Hanley to 3rd if he dont like it 2 bad.

Miami?!?! Hmmm

The "?!" implies that something is not in your control so the content of his second tweet conflicts with the emotion of his first...

Seems like he's simply trying to stir some shizz.
