Duran would be amazing AND I don't think he is getting traded. Donovan doesn't have a lot of speed with only 10 SBs but he could obviously hit leadoff as he did for the Cards.

I just really like Duran sorry but we could really use some speed somewhere. If we could snag him that'd be an absolute steal. I guess you could theoretically platoon him with Robles possibly with Duran DHing. But yeah when it comes to both Oka & Donovan I don't see why you can't have both. Not really banking on your prospects at that point are you. What do you do with Cole at that point you don't wanna give up on them so early. These guys aren't gonna cost an arm & a leg either in terms of money or prospects. I'm waiting on the Yandy talk, you know it's coming. It just makes too much sense to not do it. When was the last time Jerry pulled off multiple trades in 1 offseason or ever. The anxiety is getting to me ugh. So many options. Then there's still the matter of the Skubal factor. Not a need but definitely a win now move. Why can't December get here already. I hate having so much down time & no action. I wanna believe Jerry's gonna surprise us somewhere with something were totally not expecting.
It would take a MASSIVE haul to get Duran. They certainly are going to DH him wasting a third of his value for Vic freakin Robles.

Cole could go in the Donovan trade. Jerry has pulled multiple trades in one off season MANY times. Last off season was the aberration.

Agree he will probably do something nobody is talking about. He almost always does.

I will say if Duran does get traded to another team and it is for a haul that we could have matched or beat I won't be happy about it.

Duran is at 29.1 FPS, and Julio is at 29.2. Let’s play the all speed starting 9 post trade

CF Julio 29.2
OF Duran 29.1
1B/OF Raley 28.7
2B BLISS 28.4
3B Ben 28.1
SS Rivas 27.8 FPS
OF Randy 27.7
DH Polo 27.1 :D
C Cal 26

Bench 4th OF Robles 28.1, Util Miles 28.5 JP Josh 24.4, Ford = probably 28+, JP 26.7, Dom 26.5

I'm often underwhelmed by the packages these guys get traded for. But, he has three years of control left so maybe if a trade happens the package will be pretty good.

What is a trade haul we can't match or beat?

You should appreciate this Daren, Naylor signed because he loves the clubhouse dog
