    Alfonso Cuevas: 4.5 star LF, absolute beast

    This is mainly a feeler to see if I can acquire some pitching for this guy. This isn't a salary dump, as he is signed for the next 4 seasons on the cheap(6.6 mil). I'm not giving him away, I do expect a starting pitcher, an mlb ready sp spect or two, or a couple of lower tier younger SP...

    I have plenty of offense. If there is an opportunity out there to move this guy for pitching, I'll do it if it makes sense for my team.

    I dont want to let the cat out of the bag but this move is a franchise changer. Cuevas is a rare talent who will make a serious impact on an offense that underacheived in its potential. He will be very useful in the OF and upgrade the entire lineup for whoever got him .

    Im sure your offense thats been in the top 5 the last 5 years is underachieving. or the 22 runs you put up in one game during the WS.

    Hey, my pitching staff only gave up 21 runs in that game, not 22. Get it right.

    Yes it has. My offense has yet to break 1000 runs and it has been constituted to do such for that time .

    I didnt say I wasnt happy with my offense just that my offense could be even better than it has been. .

    My offense will be fine without Cuevas... I'm pleased with the pitching prospect I will be getting should this trade pass. If not, I'll go try put something else together... I dealt a top young SP for Cuevas... arguably the best SP... and needed someone who can be in my rotation for the next 10 years...

    So, hypothetically, who was Cuevas being dealt for?
    Marshall: MILSWANCAs?
    Ted
