We need to set out sites lower. Haniger would be nice but probably not doable either. I still like the idea of trying to add Marte for two years if he would do that. Meanwhile AA is on the phone, “Come on Nick, come back! I’ll give you a three year deal!”!

I don't go on global warming or fairy tale threads.
It's not what you think. It was started years ago when a ship studying global warming got stuck in the ice. Check it out. (not sure why this link doesn't work for me. Does it work for you? I made it with the "Link to Post" dropdown.)

I doubt they trade Reynolds who is under control for enough time for their system they have to probably develop
If I were a Bucs fan I would be pissed if they moved Reynolds, that would be like us trading Freddie Freeman for a minor league package during the rebuild.
But it never hurts to ask. On second thought I would even offer Contreras, we can bring up Alex Jackson for now
Waters, Contreras, Wilson, Touki, Wright even Tucker Davidson, not saying they would do it but you can always ask
I have no idea what it would take to get Haniger but what can we offer them without depleting the MLB roster.
Do we have anything in our system that would fetch a Haniger type? add - without moving Langliers, Muller and the mainstays on the MLB roster
Just for thought what do yall think it would take to be able to get Haniger. Or, even Marte as a rental.
What would you give up?
For the heck of it you can put a package together for Reynolds though as Uckery said, our sights should be lower than Reynolds. That makes sense.
Or, do you have another OF we can pursue and what it would take to get that guy.
One of the reasons Marte is so appealing is we should be able to get him as a rental without giving up anything that would kill us. We should have grabbed him when the Marlins did, they didn't give up very much for him. I have no idea what the Pirates would want but it wouldn't be anything that would hurt us in the long run. Then we have the option of trying to resign Marte this offseason or let him go if it's going to take too much or if our fat LF wife abuser is coming back. If fatty is coming back then it limits what we can do, If he's not coming back it opens our options a lot. I'm not even sure we'll know by the end of the offseason where we stand with that P.O.S. I don't want to envision the possibility that he'll ever take the field for us ever again, but if he ends up getting off scott free management has one hell of a decision to make for that amount of money. Maybe average fans will accept a big P.R. campaign better than I would to accept him back, I need to see years to go by before I buy and B.S. about him being a better human being.
Anyway, we have a winnable series this week vs Pit and yes, the chance to get back to the even mark again. By the ASG, we just might climb over that magic number - would be nice to be on the right side of .500 for a change
lol, he's been drawn in again, everybody prepare for another epic Westie meltdown when we lose 9-1 tonight.
