    imo (and yes, it's easy for me to say) we need to bite the bullet and pay whatever it takes to dump carl and dre
    joc has nothing left to prove at AAA, and an OF of joc/puig/kemp es muy sexy

    As long as Kemp is not traded. Losing Hanley and Kemp in the same off-season can not be an option.

    Part of my interest in a top tier pitcher is because Greinke can opt out and leave next off-season.

    Wonder if there is a correlation between the Liriano and Martin interest. Grab a solid starter that is used to and comfortable with our newly signed catcher. Would be nice

    Yeah, I just don't see how we deal Kemp. Crawford and Ethier being explored makes perfect sense, but Kemp's situation is entirely different from those two

    Has anyone noticed that Puig tanked at the end of the year and that the courts refused to dismiss the $12 million jaw suit against him? How playable will he be next year?.

    AGon exploded once Kemp got hot and was hitting behind him to trade kemp might result in exposing AGon.

    Is it possible just possible that when DBB told Kemp let me know when you are ready to play left it wasn't because of his attitude but because he hadn't played the position and was practicing and getting comfortable and DBB didn't want to put him on that stage until? Reporters being the ass jokes they are try to create drama.

    Sounds more like a gamble 'Zona might take. Low cost pitching help is on their radar.

    hate to say it, but letting Greinke go is a sure fire way to get payroll down a bit more and based on what most are reporting that's their goal, so they may let Greinke go without top tier replacement anyway. Urias may wind up taking his spot in the rotation. ETA on Urias is 2016 and he's breezing along.

    IDGAF about payroll. Can't let a good pitcher go.

    well, if they eventually deal Kemp and cash to Seattle for Walker or Paxton..you might be able to start waving buh-bye to Greinke.
