Teo has started 172 games in LF but only 3 this season. He is Mitch's replacement imo. But could play LF if we sign Nimmo.

Love this! He has a career .833 OPS on the road so he is not a product of a friendly home park. And with a decent sample size of 60 PA he has hit .357 with a 1.079 OPS at T-Mobile Park!

I see this as a sign that the M's don't think they've got a good shot at getting Nimmo.

I see that Macko is a Slovakian-Canadian.

That sounds about as a random as a Martian-Earthling.

I would now leverage Flexen and Marco to re-stock the bullpen.

M's have the prospect capitol to make another big trade.

They just dropped around $14.5 million for one year of Hernandez (maybe they extend him?)... which tells me the M's probably have another $20 or so million to spend in free agency.

I get the feeling they want to add one more starting pitcher, a corner OF, and a player that can play 2B.

I see one more big trade and one more significant f/a signing on the horizon with a couple smaller transactions mixed in.

I would give Macko a value of about 5 dollars and 40 cents and the values for the other two look about right and happy to slightly overpay for offense with a RP.

I think Jerry prefers trades to FA. I am mostly with you on your assessment, SoB - but I think if he signs someone it will be an international one (Yoshida or Senga). I think he fills other holes with trades. I don't know - maybe he goes after some relievers through FA, but nothing splashy like an Edwin Diaz haul.
