Andrew Stoeten

@AndrewStoeten

Heard a whisper a 2B of some kind or other signing soon. Vague, eh?

9:09pm - 21 Dec 14

Would be a nice Xmas gift

[GreekFatAss]

Did he not mention the Donaldson trade before it broke? At least that we were on the verge of completing a deal part?

He wasn't the source though

[TheHurl]

Stoeten is not a source of anything except for maybe lice.

[Chappy]

Izturis getting an extension.

Hush you! Don't destroy my dreams! DJ Davis for Ben Zobrist here we go!!!

lol

[glory]

Andrew wants to give the inevitable Nick Punto signing more hype than it deserves.

[Dr. Dinger]

This is probably satirical.

Yup.

You sir are a fine comedian.

[RealAccountant]

Ben Zobrist would be amazing on this team.

[RealAccountant]

That would be nice but we added to much WAR for one season. Were at our WAR limit.

 

If we get zobrist our offense would rival the offensive dominant Yankee teams of the last decade.

[Chappy]

My guess would be Chase Utley or Phillips.

 

This has nothing to do with the jays IMO.

[King]

Probably Toritani, if anything.

[baubau]

Ben Zobrist would be amazing on this team.

 

I was joking above. I do agree he would be amazing but would cost something like Stroman or Hutch as the main package going back.

Hope so. Would be a decent 1 year depth move to keep the spot warm till Travis is up.

For Zobrist? Shelby Miller got 1 year of Heyward, I doubt it takes Stroman or even Sanchez to get 1 year of Zobrist.

Oh snap! I thought he had 4 years of control for some reason.

[Chappy]

Why?

[Chappy]

Not Stroman, but Sanchez probably. He isn't anything special tbh. He has a high ceiling but the probability of reaching it is almost non existent IMO.

[baubau]

Why?

Obviously getting him mixed up with someone else lol.

[Deadpool]

I hear rumblings that we're getting Devon Travis for Anthony Gose...

what about Cabrera...he seems the most obvious choice. He could be looking for a 1 year deal too.

I'd do it. I have significant reservations about this Toritani guy, who would likely just be a stopgap anyway.

Players likes to get things settled before Christmas when possible. Cabrera isn't out of the question. Jays Journal has a piece on him earlier this month: http://jaysjournal.com/2014/12/14/mlb-free-agent-profile-is-asdrubal-cabrera-a-toronto-blue-jays-target-hot-stove-rumors-free-agency/

Yeah, if AA can nab Cabrera for 1 year I think it's a no-brainer. If Travis doesn't destroy AAA we could do way worse than Asdrubal Cabrera at 2B with Goins as a glove-rich backup MIF for 162 games. Then next year Travis will likely be experienced enough to begin his big league career out of ST.

[TwistedLogic]

I kinda want Zobrist.

[intentional wok]

I'll take Ben Zobrist and Mike Trout for $500, Alex.

 

SS, Reyes

CF, Trout

RF, Bautista

DH, Encarnacion

3B, Donaldson

2B, Zobrist

C, Martin

LF, Saunders

1B, Smoak

 

Is this real life?

 

No. No it isn't.
