I'd rather trade Ozuna for prospects than deal him for Giles.

ESPN's Jerry Crasnick was told by several rival executives that they expect the Mariners to trade Mark Trumbo this offseason.
Trumbo currently projects to be the primary first baseman in 2016, but a lot can change over the winter. It's worth noting that new Mariners general manager Jerry Dipoto, formerly with the Angels, has traded him before. Trumbo projects to make in excess of $9 million in his final year of arbitration. He turns 30 in January and batted .262/.310/.449 with 22 home runs and 64 RBI over 142 games this past season.

If Ozuna is going to be 1 SP, and a free agent another, they can roll out Fernandez, Free Agent, Guy for Ozuna, Cosart, Nicolino/Phelps/Urena, with Alvarez on the DL. That's a pretty good depth chart.
Positionally, they could roll out a bench of Trumbo/Platoon CF Bench Guy, Dietrich, Rojas, Ichiro, Telis/FA and have this weird platoon of Bour vs RHP/Trumbo vs LHP at 1B, and Yelich/Ichiro/Platoon CF Bench Guy.
They can find someone to help in CF.
Also, Trumbo is not an ideal option for me, but they have liked him before. Just saying, could work if they get a good enough SP for Ozuna and sign a real one and not Pelfrey.

Looks like Ozuna to Seattle
No names yet but hearing and has been reported that they are talking and "advanced" stages
- - - - - - - - - -
If they get Walker somehow!!! They had talked at the deadline and a few times before but Seattle was unwilling to deal him
Names tho they have liked in the past Trumbo/DJ Peterson/Seth Smith/Zunino
- - - - - - - - - -
Clark Spencer says Karns or Elias?
Elias and Trumbo(Seattle throwing in cash) for Ozuna maybe? Terrible trade but least kills some birds. Karns is Koehler or Phelps. I would hold out for Walker or even Paxton and if not that then see about DJ PetersonLast edited by tjfla; 11-24-2015, 10:36 PM.

According to Frisaro tho they are now getting ALOT of calls on him(BULLSHIT) so they might be trying to talk Seattle into a Walker

As for earlier post,don't be surprised if JA Happ is our big FA signing. Hope its the Pitt version tho
Frisaro now saying could be a much larger deal. Damn he sucks at reporting HAHA. Looks like they are trying to talk Seattle into Walker or atleast Paxton
Looks like larger part could include Mike Montgomery/Brad HandLast edited by tjfla; 11-24-2015, 11:22 PM.

lol JA Happ. If that's the big free agent signing just call the season off now.
But hey, it's totally Marlins style to overpay a guy who posts an ERA under 2 in his last 63 IP after being nothing more than a mid 4 ERA pitcher the first 7 years of his career. There's absolutely no way that kind of signing is going to backfire.

The deal is still being discussed but the word blockbuster should be replaced by big deal.
They discussed Elias and Trumbo(with cash)for Ozuna. Miami prefers Walker who they have asked about ALOT to which Seattle said no. Then Miami put the rumor out that "they were talking to multiple teams" HAHAH,to which Seattle countered with maybe another arm too-Montgomery and a prospect or 2(Nothing great tho-likely Kivelhan or Smith and a low level project arm).
The deal will likely get done(cause no one else will offer them a SP) with Elias but they really want Walker
Deal discussed(PLEASE THO to the 3 guys who get mad when 1 name is wrong-REMEMBER IT CAN CHANGE)
Ozuna/possibly Brad Hand or Rienzo to Seattle for Elias/Trumbo(and cash)/Montgomery/Carson Smith OR Kivelhan/low level project arm

If the Marlins get Carson Smith, Roenis Elias, Mark Trumbo, cash, and 2 prospects for Ozuna and a long reliever, I will be shocked. I'm not sure you can say Carson Smith is "nothing great" when he had a 2.1 WAR 2015.
Ozuna is a good gamble for a team, but come on now. In that scenario, the Marlins are throwing in more or there are radically less guys in the deal for Seattle.
