I like JP, but with guys like Correa and Seager out there as FA’s I can’t help but want to upgrade. Wonder if we could pull off a trade for JP and sign one of them without the team whining worse than they did when we traded Graveman. Ehhh, highly doubt Seattle can bag Correa or Seager. But if so, jsut move them to 3rd; or JP to 2nd. Toro can move around all over the place to fill in as needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Cano) That and I feel like players can see we're on the up and up. I wouldn't be surprised at all if players actually wanted to come here right now.

Eagles27 Posted October 31, 2021 Author Share Posted October 31, 2021 Time for Story/Bryant/Semien. Warming up to Story more and more. Trade for a 3B (Chapman?) and go a litter bigger on pitching in FA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's the battered Mariners fan in me, but he just seems like a typical Mariners FA guy that disappears once he gets here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's already had off years too, so it just seems way too familiar. 1. Correa 2. Bryant 3. Story Those are the 3 I'm hoping for. Seager isn't coming and Correa probably gets too much $.

Mesa_Titan Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 Wow Kikuchi declined his 13 million. Honestly, shocked. That’s really good for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid that they are so committed to JP Crawford. If they could sign Correa and passed because he insisted on playing short I would be pissed to say the least. Glad to hear we won't trade our top prospects. Didn't expect Julio to be traded, but I was a little worried about Marte & Kirby. I'm expecting Dipoto to make a relatively significant trade, but Hancock is the only top guy I would be ok with moving. (Preferably nobody above Williamson in our rankings) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you could sign Correa and trade for someone like Chapman, I’d ship JP for some prospects in a hot second. It’s whatever though, sign a top tier pitcher, and get Kris Bryant and I’ll be mostly happy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles27 Posted November 11, 2021 Author Share Posted November 11, 2021 If Dipoto could get that done without any of our top 3 that would be an amazing pickup. It would have to be a pretty juicy package though. Hancock/Brash Williamson/Phillips Lewis/Fraley/Trammell Aguilar/Gonzalez Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
