Dodgers Official Offseason - Trade Talk Thread

[Bleedinblueball]

agreed ^

[Bleedinblueball]

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

they value trumbo just under trout I believe they might be talking to the mets about a r.a trade for trumbo but he was rookie of the year runner up

We need to put Gordon at SS and Hanley at 3B

Gordon is terrible fielder. His mechanics playing defense are not developed yet. He takes bad angles on balls. No, Gordon is not a good fit at SS. Rather have Hanley there, at least you know what your getting.

[LakersEaglesLA]

Gordan is a nightmare for opposing pitchers on the base pads. Let him develope more before we trade him and he leads the league in steals the next 10 years on another team.. Luis Cruz was our best player in the second half of the season last year WHY trade him! Some of you are so determined to trade both of these kids for some older players with NO upside. You don't trade just for the sake of trading.. I hope the Dodgers keep both of these kids (they can play)

Or to eat something

he needs to hang out w/ uribe for a week lol

Hanley might be worse

[Dodgerbluemmm24]

Other FO said that if they got Gordon in a trade they would make him gain 20 pounds and bulk up.

Wonder if we might do the same?

[LA RO]

We done?

[LASportsFan1996]

No

No way. Hanley's a better fielder (not that he's great).

The only this Dee offers at thinking is base stealing. He is a horrible fielder and not a good hitter either.. In time, with proper development, he will be a solid overall player - that's 1-2 years of AAA ball away though..

[old blue]

People thought Ozzie smith was a bad fielder also cause he made a lot of errors. Give Gordy a chance.

[old blue]

How about nick evans

I don't know, blue. I've heard others make that comparison in the past, but it's really not close. Ozzie never once had a fielding percentage below .970 (his rookie year). He always had a knack for making amazing plays, and turning 2. His range factor was also far superior to Dee's.

It's hard to remain objective about this kid

I certainly hope so! My suggestion was about 10-15, but the kid is seriously skinny... I consider myself a little guy by baseball standards. Dee is an inch taller than me, but I've got him by 25lbs...

That guy has never met a carb he disagreed with.
