    Apparently the Red Sox plan to use Hanley at DH most of the year so he can get his 497 PA's to allow his option to vest next season.
    Yep. I doubt Dombrowski would make a public statement about not going for a 1B, then turn around and sign Hosmer. He's not sneaky like that. All signs point to signing JD Martinez or a trade for someone like Yelich.

    I do think Dombrowski is kind of putting cheap tires on a luxury car by letting a player like Mitch Moreland hold down a starting spot for a team like the Red Sox.

        I'd be shocked if Hanley gets enough PA for that option to vest.

          There are reports out there saying the Cards are pursuing Donaldson more than Machado. Look, the only way Donaldson leaves Toronto is if the Cards give up the entire farm for him.

          It's not going to happen so give it up and wait til the trade deadline.

            I'm not a fan of the players running **** and holding teams hostage and whatnot but the Marlins deserve everything they get. Worst franchise in sports.

              St.Louis needs to stop with this win now at any cost mentality. I understand the desire to get back to the postseason, but you can potentially set yourself back for future postseason runs by trading the future for one year players in an attempt to win now.

                Perfect scenario would be Cards giving up so much for Donaldson, and then Donaldson re-signs with the Jays next offseason.

                    Maybe the Braves are interested.

                          I was hoping they'd keep him. Best backup catcher we've had in a while.

                                It's going to be difficult to trade him without attaching prospects to the deal(the front office already knows this and are smart people). He'll end up getting released if all else fails. Just like Adrian there is nowhere for Kemp to play. We already have too many Outfielders as it is and we already released Andre Ethier.
