    Wait, why the heck wouldn't Correa - 3B, Quinn - SS, Altuve - 2B work? That'd be incredible.

      This is enough to stop you from making the deal? The fact that Quinn MIGHT need to move to an OF spot he'd be about 5% less valuable at?

        Owings could work, but I could see them moving him off of SS.
        Yeah Galvis has played mostly 2B but according to my buddy who's a Phanatic, they've been running him out there as insurance for an injury prone Utley. He has great arm strength and could handle SS

        Gordon and Altuve at middle infield would make a sick and speedy DP combo. Have Altuve bat leadoff and Gordon in the 8-hole? I find that quite intriguing

        Owings moving to 3B? Haven't thought of it that way but I guess it's likely

            I doubt they'd trade him, he's a valuable 2B who'll take over for Utley imo.

            Same could be said about Quinn, but Quinn won't have to bat in the 8-hole

            This is a team that traded for Michael Young and signed Delmon Young

            You can't put this past Amaro

              Nick Ahmed is the SS in the Upton deal I was thinking of. Listed as a 2B in the OSFM set though but should be SS/2B

              I actually think Utley will stay for another 2 years at a discounted price with the Phillies leaving Galvis as some sort of utility infielder since Rollins is signed for a few more years as well.

                That does seem like a pretty good infield although Correa probably wouldnt have the power expected from a corner infield spot. I do love speed though so Quinn may be the move I like the most.

                Any thoughts on Aaron Hicks? Would the Twins move him?

                  Doubt Ahmed sticks at SS. Owings though, I could see being moved in a deal, but not yet.

                  Meh I'm not so sure. Some team will probably like the name and offer him a good amount. I think Amaro likes Galvis so I don't see it happening.

                  Meh, I don't think that's any reason not to do the deal.

                      Any thoughts on an outfielder with good speed in his mid 20s who would be available to Houston?

                        Drew Stubbs? Michael Choice? Gary Brown? Those kinda guys are rare and usually can't hit lol.

                            I think Stubbs was a Longhorn in college so getting him back to Texas would be a cool twist. Especially since the Tribe have a surplus of outfielders.

                            Jose Tabata is another name for you
