…the answer should be Hell Yeah. Huff’s contract is up this year, right?

get something for the man-horse. No outfielders though, pitching and infielders would be just fine.

of Santana the Mets have kinda had some shoddy pitching this year.

At the right price.

the NY?NJ area. seems to be everyone’s top choice (especially on espn radio), and thats including over Johnson. I just don’t know what we’d ask for in return. The Met’s system isn’t exactly great, and everytihing at the ML level is either great or crap, so there’s no one they’d part with or we’d want there. Maybe some relievers? Really don’t know.

1) Wilmer Flores, SS-3B, Grade B+: I might take some flack for this, but in this case I think his upside is higher than F-Mart. If I could have just one of them, I’d pick Flores.

This guy would be nice. Write up from Sickels.

Huff should be shopped, and if the offer is right, promptly dealt for prospects, irrespective of whether they’re ML ready like AM demanded for Sherrill last year.

If the other teams try to low-ball us, then we get picks if Aubrey continues to slug.

All this is contingent on Brandon continuing to impress, though.

I would be looking for 1B/3B/SS for Huff or Baez. I feel like there is a ton of young pitching in the farm already.

Remember that if Huff doesn’t get injured he should be a type B or possibly type A free agent. So the orioles should be looking for at least 2 quality players or a package of several lower sleeper prospects

I’d ask for 1 sleeper pitcher along with maybe a bullpen prospect and ask for some type of infielder prospects. I figure Elvin Ramirez as a sleeper pitcher prospect. Maybe add one more or a bullpen guy from either single or double-A. We do need some infield depth as we lose our third basemen and Huff this year I believe

Elvin Ramirez, RHP, New York Mets
    A Dominican signed by the Mets in 2004, Ramirez posted a 3.67 ERA with a 62/36 K/BB in 81 innings last year in the Sally League, not overly impressive. But he gets tons of grounders with his 90-94 MPH sinking fastball, flashes a good curveball and changeup, and has made progress with his command. He’s had durability problems and command remains an issue, but he should be watched for signs of further development.

(writeup from stickles)

Dont trade Huff to Mets. If Huff needs to be Traded trade him to the Brewers for a player to be named later. And that player is pitcher Jeff Suppan. So what the Brewers could get is another chance to win the Penneat. But Next year we have 2 good starting pitchers Guthrie and Jeff Suppan.

add Adam Eaton into this deal and maybe even mark hendrickson

A first baseman to replace the one you would trade.

Always listen to any trade but who is behind Huff to take his spot?

Both the Giants and Braves are lacking offensive production. The Giants are getting little to nothing from first and the Braves outfield has been terrible.

Trade ideas: Huff to the Giants, Scott to the Braves
Prospects in return: one or two of Angel Villalona (1B), Conor Gillaspie (3B), Nick Noonan (2B), or Ehire Adrianza (SS) from the Giants and Freddie Freeman (1B) or Brandon Hicks (SS, 3B) of the Braves.

Bumgarner is going nowhere. He’s the left-handed Lincecum. They’re not going to trade him. If Kotchman starts hitting, Freeman becomes expendable. Anyway, I support both these trades. If they happen Wiggy takes over at 1B to be backed up by Salazar, Montanez moves to full-time DH, and the forth outfielder becomes Pie permanently.

The most important thing about both trades is getting infielders (corner and middle) prospects in return. Waring and Turner have turned out great but neither are ready to contribute to a major league roster, and, outside of Blake Davis, there need to be other options at short for next (or in two) year (s) and beyond.
