This doesn't mean we go into a EEI style trade proposal fest. If you have trade ideas as well as call ups and demotions feel free. Just make it reasonable please.
My two candidates for removal from the rotation are Buchholz and Kelly. Kelly is the easy one. Buchholz would probably require dumping. Oh well.
I think the bullpen is the last thing to be fixed. It only gets added to if rotation and lineup changes do their job.
Lineup changes would include Craig to AAA, trading Nava for a lottery ticket, and putting Castillo into the lineup. No changes at catcher yet. That position is pretty much a lost cause offensively in my mind. Swihart goes back down after RH returns. No trade to upgrade there though.
Reengage RAJ about Hamels. Not trying to bring this discussion up again but pay a bit extra if you need to. Just no Blake or Mookie.
I may regret this. If it gets silly quickly I'll be the first to suggest shutting things down. Have at it folks.
