There’s too many guys on the 40 man roster now. Someone still has to go.

Arte is nuts, they would win the trade talent wise, we were just trying to dump payroll.
I say fine, keep Joc and his 36 HRs and .876 OPS.

Cool trade Joc and Strip to the Cubs, Indians, or Mets...NO PROBLEM! If those teams were smart they'd start the dialog right now.

“Only” 20 something? It’s more than that anyway.
Guy is an elite platoon player, and has had some big postseason moments. I would have no issue with keeping him. Only reason they won’t is to save against the luxury tax.

Only reason they won’t is to save against the luxury tax. I think Joc is a good to great left handed power hitter. I wouldn't call him elite. I think it's fair to say that he is a good to great left handed power hitter with a low batting average, low RBI totals, no speed, average arm, and the weakest of the team's outfield defenders.

The word is that Joc's price tag of $7.75 mil is kind of an obstacle for some teams. Why not contact the Mets about Syndergaard and package them with other stuff. Probably Joc to the Mets wouldn't fly since they have the outfield covered and I think Cespedes returning but I'm sure they would want Strip.

I've heard that Rengifo figures to develop into a pretty good utility guy with a left handed stick. Being under control made Kike expendable which would allow the team to same some more money. I guess the deal would have sounded better if we had known who the other two prospects coming were.

I didn't say he was "elite". Elite players can play against both RHP and LHP. I did say he was an "elite platoon player". And he is.
Great power and high OPS. Team him up with a right handed bat like AJ and you could get 40-50 HRs from the starting left fielder.
And btw - he had 74 RBIs from mostly the leadoff spot last year and in only 450 total at bats. That's not a low amount. That's a lot of production.

I don't think Noah is on the block. Would love him too but just do not see him being moved. There are no trade rumors at all about the guy here.

It's simply amazing how bad Moreno's judgement is.
