Exactly, why wait until this off-season. Waiting is not an option. We need to to find out what is available in trade TODAY!!!. With the probability of injuries or an off year waiting any amount of time could be disastrous. You have to hit while the iron is hot and the opportunity is great. We've all seen that our offence is historically bad after 25% of the season gone by and waiting for any of these players to get hot seems overly hopeful. Sure, Lutz, Ashby, Hiura, Mitchell, Turang, Small and Feliciano have promise, however remember the Yelich trade and how those prospects have turned out. What is the probability that any of these guys turn into stars much less starters? With the Rockies, Twins, Rangers and Diamondbacks struggling good players...starters are to be had. Kepler, Sano, Story, Cron, Culberson, Gallo, for example could be had if the price is right.
