Two big trades were officially announced on Monday, with the Mariners sending Robinson Can贸 and Edwin Diaz to the New York Mets and Jean Segura, Juan Nicaso and James Pazos to the Philadelphia Phillies. Since being made GM of the Mariners towards the end of the 2015 season, Dipoto has made more trades than any other executive. While the goal of Dipoto’s winter trades has usually been to make his team more competitive for the following season, it’s clear that this offseason’s transactions are intended to kick off a process of retooling the roster.Rox Pile’s Noah Yingling explores potential trades between the Mariners and Colorado Rockies. Pazos and Nicasio are included as options, which speaks to how active Dipoto is in his trading as they were not known to be included in the aforementioned deals at press time. One additional name that the Rockies could look to acquire is Mitch Haniger Jake Lamb Jersey , whose 120 DRC+ (yup, I’m breaking out the new stat) in 2018 would have ranked as fourth-best on the team, after Nolan Arenado, Trevor Story and Charlie Blackmon. Mariners make odd, seemingly indefensible trade, send Jean Segura, Juan Nicasio, and James Pazos to Phillies for... payroll flexibility? | Lookout LandingOur friends over at Lookout Landing are taking the Mariners’ trade news quite well. Kate Preusser describes the trade with the Phillies as “cheap and more than a little desperate,” as the return for Segura, Nicasio and Pazos was Carlos Santana and J.P. Crawford. Those two are certainly not prospects (though Crawford will only be 24 in January and has a high ceiling) http://www.diamondbacksfanproshop.com/authentic-zack-greinke-jersey , so the trade appears to have been done largely for cost-cutting measures. Correct (and incorrect) analysis of the Mets’ trade for Robinson Can贸 | Beyond the Box ScoreAt Beyond the Box Score, Daniel R. Epstein analyzes the Can贸/Diaz trade, dissecting the prospect return for the Mariners. There are various scenarios in which the deal could be a win (or a loss) for both teams. Rumor season is the best, and also the very worst"Something is going to happen eventually, it has to. Bryce Harper is going to sign, Manny Machado is going to sign, the Indians might trade a starting pitcher. Eventually, something is going to happen. In the meantime, baseball fans the world over can enjoy Ken Rosenthal being the conduit for baseball front offices spitting gossip at each other. This time around it’s a “rival executive” who doesn’t believe the Indians are serious about trading Corey Kluber or Trevor Bauer after all. Says Ken on The Athletic: He goes on to correctly assert that Kluber and Bauer probably aren’t going to be available at the deadline either, meaning they are pretty likely to be staying in Cleveland for at least another season. But that’s not the issue here Jeff Mathis Jersey , of course. It’s a clearly salty general manager who didn’t the trade he wanted and is now trying to throw the Indians under the bus. It’s not my job to blindly defend the Indians and I have no interest in doing it, but this is so clearly one-sided that it’s laughable. “Cheap roster fillers” is a direct, in-quotes, phrase from an executive. That’s not something you say to a reporter without the clear intention of it getting out and receiving a negative connotation, the same connotation that Indians fans like to bring up every time they sign guys like Mike Napoli and Rajai Davis instead of making big splashes in free agency. What business is it of a rival executive if the Indians are going to sign a cheaper player, if not because they’re mad the Indians wouldn’t agree to their offer for Corey Kluber or Trevor Bauer? Indians don’t want your players? Better go tell Ken about it. None of this is a knock on Ken Rosenthal, either. He does a fantastic job at what he does, and without him hearing all these hilariously petty comments from front offices, we would have no idea this kind of Mean Girls discourse goes on when we’re not watching large men hit balls with sticks. The best part is, the executive probably isn’t even wrong http://www.philliesfanproshop.com/authentic-pat-neshek-jersey , depending on your definition of “cheap” and “fillers” (which is also a really encouraging way to hear a baseball executive referring to players). The Indians very well could be turning their nose up at substantial offers for Kluber or Bauer because they just don’t need to shed payroll anymore, and they believe they could grab a couple free agents to fill out the outfield and bullpen. Hell, they’ve already done it with the glut of fourth-outfield types they’ve acquired in the last year. If even one or two of them can catch fire for a season — much to the chagrin of Mr. Mystery Executive — they get to keep their two aces and still compete for a World Series. Maybe the Indians will trade Kluber, maybe they won’t. Maybe they’ll even go out and sign Michael Martinez again. Either way, this is yet another reminder this offseason that most of the rumors we hear come from general managers and others who didn’t get what they wanted in a trade and ran to a reporter about it. Spring training can’t come soon enough.
