Please DO NOT hesitate to trade Nootbar

[Jobu's Rum]

I can see the hesitation for Burly and Donnie, although I move either for the right price.

But Nootbaar can easily be replaced by Church/Koperniak

I don't care if it is just cash back, do it please!

Agree. But hard to raise interest in an oft injuries average to below average player.

I'd change your thread title to "please trade Nootbaar"

[Jobu's Rum]

Noted haha

[rockondlouie]

Front offices that dig the baseball savant metrics love Noot, seems someone would come calling.

Maybe Shildt's Padres come calling if they can't land Kwan?

I may be in the minority, but I think they need to keep Burleson.

Noot s/b oot. If not for his name, he wouldn’t have near the notoriety he has now. I’d rather he had some XBHs and RBIs. He can do Japan after the regular season ends. That’s where his money is.

Sorry but with Kwan, Taylor Ward, Robert Jr, Mullins, etc supposedly available WHY would anyone trade for Nootbar? As a 4th or 5th OF is even a stretch, well except in STL.

He gets to be a 1st OF here!

Depends on the return. I'm not in a hurry to trade him now that he seems to have figured it out. But he isn't ever going to be that feared MOTO bat some proclaimed him - IMO.

They're trying to clear out the position clutter Juan.

Where does he play in 2026?

1st base - Only to spell WillyC

DH - Crowded already w/Gorman & Hererra when he's not in LF

RF - J. Walker & Noot

If you could package him w/Maton or JoJo, then you might get a major league ready #3 starter.

[Strummer Jones]

I would argue that you don't even need to replace Nootbaar with anyone from Memphis. He's as extra as extra gets.

My exact thought!

I understand, Rock. I just think he provides more than Nootbaar. But if you get an immediate rotation guy, you have to do it.

Ship off Nootbaar and Gorman for whatever they'll get you. Problem solved.

Noot for sure could happen, I doubt they move on from Norman until Bloom and his group have a full year to work w/him (and Walker).
