It reeks of desperation. Trying to smack some hot, juicy lipstick on that pig.

We're right in the wild card hunt behind garbage teams. These moves improve us a lot.

So with Rizzo are they thinking Voit isn't coming back this year? There goes my PC.

Topps just announced a special Mantle card set coming out this year from Topps online.

I always love the Topps QA.

I hope not. I just bought a ton of his cards to PC him this year after my last PC, Tanaka, left.

Seems odd they would want to get rid of Voiit when they have no idea if they could re-sign Rizzoli since he's a free agent.

Probably for minor leaguers. Just so you know.

Not really. DJ at 1st, Gleyber back to 2nd, and then find a SS replacement in FA.

Should have moved him before the year when his value was highest. You knew Voit wasn't going to repeat that again.

This is what they should have done from the beginning. Re-signed Didi, kept Gleyber at 2B and DJ at 1B.

Fully agree with this. We still need to fill the SS position.

Story is in play but it would involve more top 10 prospects...

Story is a career .242/.310/.437 away from Coors. I would stay far away from him.

I would pull the trigger for the right price. Arenado, DJ had similar concerns.

Although we still need starting pitching

No need to sign a SS long term if Volpe is the real deal. Trading prospects to salvage this season was a huge mistake.

I think the general perception is he's a 2b in the MLB. Plenty of SS in FA this off-season, or one can hope Gleyber figures it out. FWIW he's only 24.
