Cervelli and Suzuki? Just need a German and it's WWII all over again.But really...them as a pair seems awfully expensive for two mediocre options together.
Didn’t say it made sense. How about Difo as the starting 2B. That makes me laugh also.
Do you really think Difo will be the starting 2B when the season rolls around? No chance.
They already said they are set at second base with him and Kendrick. Kendrick can hit but won’t be able to play defense well.
SO .... he'll be Daniel Murphy?
Please stop. They are not paying for another catcher.
If true, this tells me that we're primed for another 82-80 season. Difo was a mild disappointment in 2018. Both he and Kendrick are utility players.
I'll take Kendricks bat as many games as possible over Difo's defense.
I think you may be underestimating how serious an Achilles injury is and especially for a guy his age. No doubt he is a better hitter.
Yan Gomes is being traded to the Washington Nationals, per source. Haven't heard who is going back to Cleveland but it won't be for DC's top prospects
Twitter rumors are flying that the Nats are getting Yan Gomes from the Indians. OK bat, ranked high defensively. Team friendly contract, three years of team control with options after each year. All star last year so the price will be high.
The Hot Stove season's catching carousel continued to spin Friday, as the Nationals completed their second backstop acquisition of the winter by trading for Indians catcher Yan Gomes, a source told MLB.com. The Tribe acquired necessary salary relief and two Minor Leaguers -- outfielder Daniel Johnson (the Nats' No. 7 prospect, per MLB Pipeline) and right-hander Jefry Rodriguez -- in the trade between two contending ballclubs.
Rizzo fooled me. Gomes is not very good though, is he?
Now reported that Taylor is going to the Indians.
Yan Gomes is being acquired by the #Nats. Gives them a nice catching combo with Suzuki. Minor League RF Daniel Johnson going the other way to #Indians . (sorry if you saw earlier that mentioned Michael Taylor; he's not involved)
Amen. We're not going to have 2 catchers with multi million dollar contracts.
