With the fear of cricification...

With the minors loaded with quality centerfielders (mostly Grossman and Hernandez), would it be wise to consider a trade of Cutch in a season or two. Possibilty of great returns and an in house replacement. What do you guys think?

Might as well start calling him SMart now

Shop smart...

shop S-Mart.

It's just my two cents. Could be worth more, could be worth nothing.

Crucification and criticism all rolled into one.

Grossman is not a centerfielder.

You run the risk of cricification dragging facts into this, you know...

Free your ass and your mind will follow.

Just thinking. Hard to drag facts into the future.

With the play and potential of 2 or 3 good oufielders in the system ( we all know who they are) would you consider a trade of Cutch. What would you consider. Again this is 2 years away when arb is over for Cutch.

this was for epoc

Grossman only played 15 games in CF this year

He’s prety much not a centerfielder anymore, regardless of what that article says.

MILB sites still list Miguel Sano as a SS

they also list him at 3B but I believe hes already mostly a 3Bman. We all know Grossman is a corner outfielder. No biggie.

If his power continues to develop, maybe a move to 1B would be in the works if Curry and Dickerson flame out.

I’d rather trade him than move him to 1B. No matter how the bat develops, he can handle the OF. Rather get equal value in trade than reduce value with an unnecessary position switch.
