Just saw Ken Rosnenthal reported that the Brewers and Angels were talking Parra and Lind before Dipoto got fired. Would make perfect sense. Both are great fits for the Angels.

There's no reason not to play Parra everyday, or at least vs. RHP, until he gets traded. Davis can go back to playing everyday after that.

If they want anything of value in return, then they'll look to move someone out of the group of Gomez, Segura, and Lucroy. Lohse, Garza, Lind, Parra, K-Rod, Broxton, Cotts, and Ramirez, the more likely trade candidates, won't net much in return. Lohse, Broxton, Cotts, and Ramirez have been terrible and will likely be salary dumps. Teams won't want Garza's contract, and likely not K-Rod's either. Parra and Lind will get something, but likely lower level, high ceiling guys. Gomez is the only guy who might get traded before July 31 who would bring back an exciting return.

Adam Lind would be a perfect fit in St. Louis in a platoon with Reynolds now that Adams is likely out for the year with a torn quad.

Matt Adams likely out for the year. Time to ship Lind to St. Louis.

I don't dislike BA at all, but I do like Lepay more. I wouldn't be upset if BA left, and he took over. I also am tired of Rock. But he'll be here until he retires, so gotta deal with him. When he was gone, and Cirillo and Counsell filled in, it was night and day.

I'm sure they've been open to trades for awhile now. Melvin even said himself, teams don't wanna deal this early. Gotta wait till mid-late June before anything heats up. When do you ever see trades this early in baseball?

This is probably the lineup we'll be looking at for the second half of the season. Segura Lucroy Braun Davis Clark Rogers Gennett Schafer

Pretty confident that Lohse, Garza, Ramirez, Lind, Gomez, Parra, K-Rod, and Broxton will all be gone come August 1st. May just need to eat some money on a few of the them, which isn't a big deal if it's just for this year. Lucroy and Segura would likely take pretty hefty offers for the Brewers to even think about though.

He'll get plenty of playing time at 1B and 3B once Lind and Ramirez get traded.

Don't worry. Gomez will be traded soon anyway.

2B Segura SS Arcia UTIL Rivera. Trade Gennett and Sardinas.

I can't help you out, but just wanted to say that MVP Baseball 2005 is the best game of all-time. I have never loved a game more. Especially Dynasty Mode. Now I wanna play too. Lol.

My 20-pack is in the club behind home plate, and I'll never move. Love it there.

No need to overreact about Spring Training performance. Keep in mind that he's also working on a curveball and trying to perfect his change up. I won't get worried until I get to see him for awhile in season. Sometimes pitchers just have terrible springs, and come out in season and look better. Gotta give him a chance, much like with Peralta. Pulling the plug will only hurt his confidence. Gotta let him take his lumps.
