Re: Shin-soo Choo?

Put me down for Stubbs having a resurgent year if he gets 500+ PA somewhere in 2013. I still think he's a .240/.320/.400 guy, good for ~3.5 WAR if he can just get out of his own head.

The #Dbacks would much prefer getting Gregorius back from the #Indians for young pitching than Cabrera

Is it still a three teamer or is the deal for Choo already made?

I agree. And to be honest, a change of scenery just might be the thing for Drew. I'd hate to see him go, but bringing in Choo is just too dreamy to pass up.

It's all the same deal. It may not end up technically being a 3 way deal, but two different trades, but it's the same thing.

I have an idea...

CIN trades Tony Cingrani, Dan Corcino, DiDi Gregorius and Drew Stubbs
ARI trades Trevor Bauer
CLE trades Asdrubal Cabrera and Shin Soo-Choo

CIN gets Asdrubal Cabrera, Shin Soo-Choo and Trevor Bauer
ARI gets DiDi Gregorius
CLE gets Tony Cingrani, Dan Corcino, and Drew Stubbs

How about that?!

Put me down for Drew Stubbs will always be atrocious.

Re: Shin-soo Choo?

No way the Reds trade all 3 Didi , Cingrani and Corcino at least I hope not. I don't want Cingrani dealt. Unless Choo will agree to an extension immediately.

Source: #Indians SS Asdrubal Cabrera will not be traded today, perhaps not even at all.

Well that was fun lol. I'll still take Choo.

Re: Shin-soo Choo?

Still in a fog on who the Indians send to D backs, Bowden seems to think Cabrera to the D Backs for SP's. Morosi and Rosenthal both believe Didi gets flipped per there twitter accts for possibly Bauer.

Re: Shin-soo Choo?

So it's Didi and Stubbs for Choo and it sounds like it's pretty much done.

Re: Shin-soo Choo?

Here's a thought: Given BP's double play tendencies and Choo's batting from the left-hand side, why not bat BP leadoff and Choo 2nd?

I thought it was Didi and Stubbs for Choo and another position player?

Re: Shin-soo Choo?

Would anyone have rather traded DiDi for Bauer straight up?

Not saying I would, just asking...
