i wonder what Stanton will command in his first year in Arb

**jej** · 12-31-2012, 12:14 AM

Not feeling Walker, Franklin, Paxton+.

as of right now.... id throw smoak out there vs leftys and have him play 1b....

im not defending how bad hes been but thats what gives us the best chance to win right now .... vs RHP he is out, but maybe late inning replacement bc i like his glove.

Thats exactly what I am saying, and you kept disagreeing with it.

if you go back to post 250 i said i wouldnt mind him on the roster to platoon and for D purposes. meaning the way the roster is set now.

i still think hes been garbage and cant stick up for him. hes on his last legs, hanging by a thread, thats been my point all along.

I don't know. It depends on the +. If its VCat or Romero then maybe.

Actually, I might be ok with that. Cause we still have Hultzen, Maurer, Erasmo and Sanchez. Plus we could sign one too.

That bat in our lineup would be sex. I say do whatever it takes and land that ****. Stanton plus a SP FA could possibly equal playoffs.

in a heartbeat. easier to replace these specs than find a stanton. 40hr hitters dont grow on trees.

**FWBrodie** · 12-31-2012, 01:05 AM

Anyone ever wonder what would happen if Mike Stanton hit a Jamie Moyer fastball as hard as he possibly ****ing could?

Enjoy. (watch the end)

Uh, yeah. I'd tell Miami to hand over Stanton and then just take whatever they need.

**A.Mopp** · 12-31-2012, 01:45 AM

yeah one of the few players id let a team take us out back and have their way with us

**jej** · 12-31-2012, 01:47 AM

I guess I would do any specs. But wouldn't want to include Seager like they would want. Then we lose a position that is much harder to fill.

But:
Ackley
Seager
Montero
Stanton
Morales
Jaso/Smoak/Zunino
Saunders
Guti
Ryan/Eventually Miller

Would look pretty damn sweet. Then we could sign Grandy or Choo to replace Guti next year and be even better

**** it. Id offer Walker, Paxton, Franklin, Romero, Triunfel
