...I'm not talking about Chance Ruffin level pieces...I'm talking about established big leaguers who are club controlled. And I'm not talking about trading Mike Trout...I'm talking about trading Taijuan Walker.
Oh...and here's how I view the Mariners' position right now. We have four stars (Felix, Cano, Cruz, and Seager), three other interesting players with star potential (Walker, Paxton, and Elias) and a bunch of fungible dogmeat filling out the rest of the roster...except for the gigantic, catastrophic holes we have in our bullpen, in RF, and at 1B if we're trying to unload Trumbo. So we have like 5 holes to fill, no money to fill them, and we still have to resign Iwakuma. How exactly do you plan to do that if you don't turn one of our interesting star-potential players into several gap-fillers. Not just relievers...the RF, the 1B, the RP, and a replacement starter, perhaps.
