Kennedy price should be high, 3 arbitrage years remaining.

If Kennedy's price is high I'll pass, don't like the idea to add an expensive flyball pitcher.

 

Just 2 arbitration years left for Kennedy.

 

He has a 5.25 ERA and a mediocre 2.25 K/BB. They can't ask for that much for him.

 

They also stand to benefit in both the short and long term by clearing Kennedy's salary and his roster spot. There is a financial cost tied to him, as well as an opportunity cost.

They want pitching and we have some now that Drebek Hutch and Happ are close. Send them JJ or MB I don't know what prospects you would have to add to that though.

Only 2 Arb?

My bad. Janssen + Boni + Non-prospect

The only way I am going to come out of this day happy is if AA finds a way to unload JPA. If he does that he would ALMOST get a little respect back from me.

Owings is fairly legit and his stock is on the rise. They probably don't move him.

 

I could see them moving Kennedy for a guy like Janssen. They're only a few games back in the division, and 2nd in baseball in blown saves.

 

Ya, he seemed like a guy who could be an MLB MIF'er as soon as next season. Doesn't look like he'll be a star but that's a pretty sexy age vs level. If Janssen is enough for Kennedy I wonder if Janssen + Oliver + Bonifacio could land you both. Either way Janssen + filler for Kennedy would be a decent deal for the Jays. I think Kennedy will bounce back to a mid-4 ERA in the AL East.

JJ would do nothing for them since it appears they have given up on the season. I would think it would cost something more along the lines of Gose + (Minor league pitcher not named Sanchez) + Izzy.

I'm really hoping LAA still values MB fairly high and would take his contract on. Dream trade; MB + Nolin + Carreno for Kendrick. Makes no sense for LAA, other than being desperate for MLB pitching, though.

Towers has been avoiding resigning him for a couple seasons now. Definitely seems like they would prefer to trade him over giving him a long term contract.

Perhaps a 3 team deal with STL getting Ruiz, the Jays getting Wang, and Philly getting something equivalent from TO..

No chance. We all want JPA gone, but don't hold your breath until the off season.

Surprised they don't want Lind too. He always seems to tear them a new a-hole when he's in their park.

Any deal for EE or Bautista has to start with Profar - no questions asked.
