I agree, that might be Goodbye Seager.
I’ve been expecting him to get traded all winter, which kinda sucks because I like him. But his best position is 2B and he’ll never play that for us (unless Ackley somehow needs to move to CF because everyone else we try there fails miserably). If we don't think Seager can play 3rd long-term, then he's definitely a candidate to be moved.
Who needs a 2B?
Off the top of my head:
St. Louis (pretty sure they’re still running Schumaker out there), but they also have Wong, their first rounder, and he’s probably just a couple years away.
Reds have Brandon Phillips but his contract is up after this year, and Hamilton’s a baby. Rodriguez has potential though.
Cubs if Barney doesn’t have their confidence. They don’t have many other internal options the last time I looked em over.
White Sox are having a fire sale, so Seager might be part of a package to get Quentin. Beckham has been a HUGE disappointment.
We can find a trade partner for a 2B, but I dunno what Seager’s perceived value is. I would think it would be more of a package deal like the Quentin thing.
But whether he stays or goes, Guillen isn’t a bad add. We needed a vet hitter for the clubhouse, IMO. Guillen certainly counts, if he can make the team.
