Reynolds requests a trade

This is huge news that deserves a thread imo. I just don't think we have what it takes without trading Gilbert or Kirby which I am not doing.

Hancock+Miller+Kelenic is a great start.
Then, turns out, the Comp balance pick and the Julio ROY picks are tradeable.
Add one of those picks and it's a pretty competitive package imo.

I dunno about that. They know they are still 2 years away from contending in a best case scenario. I dunno if they would truly want guys already on the main roster. But a package of Kelenic, Ford, Hancock and Brash would have to get their attention I'd think. Values has it 59.9 reynolds to 37.8 for our package so maybe not. But a lot of people still put a lot of stock in Kelenics future and thats a fairly strong package. Would hurt like hell but we have a great draft coming up to restock plus Celestin signing as well. Could reload and thats a hell of a team. Still money left over to sign Senga as well.

JK becoming a Pirate could help him. Maybe he will hit better with a hook for on hand and a peg leg?

Interesting approach trading Kelenic twice in the same transaction. You are a crafty one sir.

Putting in twice prob makes the package less attractive! LOL

I'm just saying, if we turned around and signed an ace in free agency, we'd never miss Gilbert.
And I don't think we'd miss the package of 6 guys either

I think the best chance of this happening is with a 3 or 4 team trade with the Mariners sending out Flexen and/or Marco, maybe Diego Castillo, maybe Hancock, and maybe JK, along with some other prospect pieces like Dollard, Clase, and Woo. I don't know which teams would be involved or who would get what exactly, but the end result would be a whole bunch of players switching teams and Pittsburgh getting the haul they're probably after. I'm also wondering if the M's would consider moving Ty France in that sort of scenario.
