Imagine the backlash if he trades two of the three best relievers and BP blows 27 games. I wouldn't trade anyone that was a solid contributor this past season. btw did you see Ken Giles is the second highest paid player on the team now. :shock: :lol:

And why can't we combine Cal's D and Torrens bat. We would have a great catcher. Ugh.
I can see Dipoto trying to trade Steckenrider, he's scheduled to make a whopping 2.1 million in arbitration. :lol:

They control him for another 2 years. If they don't trade him, they may want to sign him for 2 years plus an option.
Yeah he is the guy that is mentioned most often to be traded but we have a ton of prospects why F with our lights out pen.
He may have a LH reliever pickup in mind (Chapin?). I'd have to give him the benefit of the doubt for now.

I was about to say, if you like soft-tossing lefties, Loup would looks good.
