2012-2013 off-season trade ideas

He's 22!

Viciedo is 23, so your point is?

Viciedo is 23, so your point is?

Viciedo has been average for two years, and people don't expect too much more.
Delgado has a 3.95 ERA in 25 career games, and most people expect him to become a very good player.

Delgado>Viciedo now, and in the future.

Viciedo is 23, so your point is?

You used Delgado's lack of major league success at the age of 22 as a reason to put down his trade value.

Most 22 year olds aren't even in the majors yet.

Who hangs up first?

MIN gets: Tommy Hanson, Tyler Pastornicky
ATL gets: Josh Willingham

MIN gets: Tommy Hanson, Tyler Pastornicky
ATL gets: Josh Willingham

I'd do that in a second, considering Pastornicky was released from the Dominican Baseball League with a .280 OBP. He blows.

[JBears79]

What do you guys think of this for the Cubs and Indians?

Cubs get: Zach McAllister, Michael Brantley and Dillion Howard

Indians get: Alfonso Soriano (+cash to cover his contract) Josh Vitters, Junior Lake, Matt Szczur and Trey McNutt

Trade Ideas:

- Red Sox acquire UT Michael Cuddyer(along w/ 10mill cash) from Rockies in exchanged for 2-mid level pitching prospects.

Why: Cuddyer can either play RF(replacing Ross), play 1b or 3b.

- LA Angels acquire RHP J.Shields from Rays in exchanged for 1b CJ Cron, C H.Conger, P Maronde, & IF A.Romine.

Rotation Outlook: Greinke(Resigned) Weaver, Shields, CJ Wilson, Richards.

- Texas Rangers acquire RHP J.Johnson from Marlins in exchanged for 3b M.Olt & LHP M.Perez.\

Rotation Outlook: Harrison, Darvish, J.Johnson, Holland, Ogando.

Josh Johnson is not going to bring anywhere near a return like that. The guy is constantly injured, only under contract for one more year and quite frankly he wasn't nearly as dominant as he used to be last year.

[kokes]

-Tigers get Bauer from Arizona for Porcello and Crosby

-Rays get Escobar, Gose, D'arnaud for Shields +cash

[Scully in 2012]

Dodgers trade Dee Gordon, Chad Billingsley, and cash to the Mets for Wright ... good trade?

Absolutely not!!!

We do not trade Billingsley.

[metswon69]

Absolutely not!!!

We do not trade Billingsley.

Yeah because Billingsley has more value than a 7 WAR 3rd baseman?

I am hoping Scully was kidding.

I know, I just wanted to say that it's as stupid to put down Viciedo's value because of what he did as a 21 or 22 year old. The.jury is still out on him or Delgado.

[Scully in 2012]

I am hoping Scully was kidding.

I was. However, I think this is a key year for Wright. His power has slipped (21 hr) and it slips any further he is flirting with mediocrity in the power hitter category. Nonetheless, he is awesome and I would love to h e him on The Dodgers

It's not about Wright's power, he is still an effective run producer and was certainly hurt in that area due to the lack of production at the top of the Met's lineup in comparison to previous seasons (sans Reyes)

Remember a 2 WAR third baseman is considered above average.

Wright was a 7 WAR third baseman last year due to his great defense and how he hit especially in the first half.
