Bauer has a lot of potential and all, but he hasn't been able to throw strikes since he got out of college. I also don't think the DBacks are just going to throw him into a deal, we are going to have to make it worth their while to add him.
Personally, Putz is the only guy on Arizona that I want, Upton is nice but not worth what we would have to give up in all likelyhood. If we're going to deal our top 4 trade pieces right now in Castellanos, Smyly, Porcello and Garcia, I would rather fill all of our holes with solid to good players while doing so, something like what Toronto just did but without the salaries because we would be giving up better players/prospects.
I think with peralta added that would allow us to hold onto smyly. Garcia, nick c, Porcello, and peralta honestly should be able to land us Upton, Baurer, and putz. Id still like to see another bullpen arm and starting pitcher brought in. Dan haren ? Jonathon broxton? And obviously a ss. Although I see better options via trade. Dee Gordon has solid range and arguably the best base stealing threat in baseball. I think trading boesch or berry could get us dee Gordon and javy guerra from the dodgers.

Justin Upton has a lot of talent and is a legit MVP contender, but you cannot forget that in three years Garcia and Castellanos will most likely be the same and maybe even better. I would rather have the tigers going out and trading for Giancarlo Stanton. He has power, speed, and everything and also he is even younger than Upton. So how about Castellanos,Porcello, and Smyly for Stanton. Any thoughts? By the way it won't be too tough for Dave Dombrowski to pull this trade off since has done so many with the Marlins organization.

I read on the main page that the marlins are already looking to move escobar. I wonder if we have called on getting him. I would love a stanton n escobar trade.

I'd only want Escobar if we flipped him to another team. Horrible in the clubhouse and its not like he would be an upgrade. Peralta is the better hitter and probably better on d. I'd love Stanton behind Fielder. As a pitcher, I wouldn't get much sleep the night before knowing I had to face Miggy, Prince, Stanton the next night. lol
Yeah that would be scary. Okay it's settled then. Now we need to let Dombrowski know that he should go trade for Stanton. Then we should also go and sign Zack Greinke instead of Sanchez. And then put Rondon at closer. I wish Dombrowski would just make another one of his big moves. I'm also glad we got Torii Hunter. He's gonna actually make our team a little more happy and excited during games. They were always so tense last year. And vmart better be good next season; no pressure though lol. But don't get me wrong I would still love to have Upton for the right price.
