    not really considering they'd be getting $10M from the Dodgers and not paying it to Haren

      The other LH options are Abraham Almonte, Alex Dickerson, Jake Goebbert and Will Venable. It'll probably be Almonte or Venable.

        I think I'd rather keep McGee around. For once it'd be nice to be able to withstand multiple injuries in our lineup without turning into a minor league journeyman clown show.

        What could you reasonably expect to get for McGeehee on the market?

          I think Emilio Bonifacio would be a better fit for this team than McGehee.

            I would trade McGehee for Venable in a second.

            It's relatively cost neutral, and the OF is rock fucking solid.

                I would view him as a Solano upgrade and not the same "role" on the bench

                  Prado, who turned 31 in October, will serve as both a backup infielder and outfielder. During his nine big league seasons, Prado has played more than 2,100 innings at three different positions – left, second and third.

                  We gave the Marlins too much credit.

                    There's no way we acquired Prado to not start him. Right?

                      Yeah I don't see them giving up Eovaldi for a utility player

                        There's no way they traded Eovaldi for a backup infielder. Prado will start at 3rd.

                          Absolutely.

                          Another deal or two is coming to clear McGehee and figure out 4th SP slot

                            No, you give JCR too much credit.

                            0% chance the Marlins traded Eovaldi for a $8M a year player to not start him

                              Yup. Don't forget that they were interested in Headley as well...so it's not like they were married to McGehee starting.

                                #Marlins may not done dealing. Prado acquisition makes Casey McGehee expendable. Prado expected to be every day third baseman.
