Ok I'm sure you are right I just don't think its that simple though, think the market will determine the contracts
Agree on Lind and would love Gomez although I doubt he is available I want no part of Gonzales, his numbers away from Coors are not even what Tucker puts up (much better defender obviously)
Well, maybe I'm completely wrong But I think if we trade for him he will like it here and we will have a great chance to sign him Hope we trade for him and we can find out who is right, lol
I'm pretty sure Gomez is available for the right price. If we get him he replaces Marisnick in CF. Gomez is a great fielder and a productive hitter. Earlier in this thread, I suggested a Lind and Gomez deal. Would greatly improve our offense by addressing our lineups 2 biggest holes. Both guys are under control for next season as well.
Has Gomez come available? He has been tearing it up lately so his price must be pretty steep! Unload the prospects. I could care less at this point. We have so many B rated prospects that are doing well in the minors and will probably never crack the squad long term. Even guys like Reed, Kemp, and Phillips aren't a sure thing to be anything. I would go for it.

Feeding off Drellich's report that SD & Houston talks are "gaining steam", Jon Morosi says "it would not surprise him" if it was Kimbrel + starter (Cashner or Ross). <blockquote class="twitter-video" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">The <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Astros?src=hash">#Astros</a> & <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Padres?src=hash">#Padres</a> are reportedly discussing a big trade. <a href="https://twitter.com/jonmorosi">@jonmorosi</a> discusses on <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/WhipAround?src=hash">#WhipAround</a> on <a href="https://twitter.com/FOXSports1">@FOXSports1</a> <a href="http://t.co/X0N4ljMz3G">http://t.co/X0N4ljMz3G</a></p>— FOX Sports: MLB (@MLBONFOX) <a href="https://twitter.com/MLBONFOX/status/626532865925222400">July 29, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Kimbrel in this pen would be absurd but I would be more inclined to go after Benoit as part of the package. Makes more economic sense.
Which one's the *******: Gomez or Gonzalez? I dearly hope 37 Boxes of Orange Jello is there for not Lance McCullers Jr.
Why not Upton, too? We could use the bat. Kimbrel, Ross and Upton would be dreamy. As long as we didn't have to give up any good prospects.

Forgot about Greinke too, he is in that class also I've read how the Dodgers will be a team going after Price in offseason and that might be true, but that would likely mean Greinke isn't being resigned and is another top arm available Lot of great options this year
