Arenado at the trade deadline

[Shady]

Some teams might have some interest because of a need. However, I don't see the Cardinals getting much of an offer for him unless he gets more productive, offensively, before the trade deadline. He is pretty average, currently.

This is why you are so valuable to the forum. I doubt anyone on here could have broke that down like you with no edits. Amazing.

He's not going to bring anything in return. Only reason you'd trade him would be to unload him and play someone else. Maybe that's a conversation we'd have in July if Wetherholt can slide in. Would much rather do that if the team is out of it. To take the pressure off that young group to let them get comfortable as a unit for next year.

Insightful.

If they would manage to trade Arenado, Would Gorman move to 3B no matter what? Or would they call up Saggese and see if he can take up where he left off when he was up last time. Maybe, move Donovan to 3B and Saggese to 2B. Also, Prieto is continuing his fine hitting at Memphis. Maybe he deserves a look.

They should try Deniel Oritz or JonJon Gazdar at 3B.

I, personally want Yancel Guerrero or Yoerny Junco to man 3B.

You’re going to give Shady some more players to discover

[Jatalk]

I’m starting to think NA is here to stay unless some team in contention becomes absolutely desperate for a good defensive third baseman. Even then I don’t see them taking on his salary.

This is a MAJOR problem for the organization.

I'm just being prepared...for when he does discover them and tells us all about them. We will then see the light...or the sign. Those (bleep) long-haired hippies....

Guru, just keep reporting on player's performances. Analysis isn't really your best suit. You aren't really as clever as you think you are either. Stick to reporting. Of course, you aren't into actually making a comment on Saggese and Prieto. Trying to demean Shady thrills you more. Maybe you aren't really a baseball guru after all.

Just what the forum needed, yet another Shady “Arenado trade” thread.

And it can’t be just “some” team, it has to be one that Arenado would approve a deal to.

Which is why I’ve been of the belief that since he wasn’t traded in the offseason, he would end up being a Cardinal through his contract.

I don’t see it necessarily being terrible, you just have to realize we have an average offensive, great defensive 3B who is probably a future HOFer for the next 2.5 years.

Actually, pretty good analysis. Maybe the forum Guru can take note. Sidenote, if the Cardinals are trapped with Arenado. It will be interesting to see if the Cardinals still play him over Saggese and, especially, Wetherholt.

He promised (yet again) that he was going to “cool it” for a while. But as usual, “a while” turned out to be just a few hours.

What's wrong with wanting those 4 as my 3B?
