Happy Holidays to you as well! Have listed top three DFAs in my mind a couple times, but would probably go DUJ. ... Also possibly Vilade. ... I like the Santana move the most and probably Choi the least. Just strikes me as a little redundant given some other options coming up at that position.

Following up my Reynolds question, are there any other quality trade chips (Keller,Bednar,etc.) that could be moved this off-season or possibly at the trade deadline? Obviously next year doesn't look to be a winning season and with another high draft pick in 24 and the thought of continuing to supplement the system with high end prospects it's hard to not like the looks of potential teams in 24/25 and beyond.

I would look at the guys on one-year deals -- Choi, Santana, Hedges, Garcia (I know he has an option), Velasquez and a few others. Not Bednar or Keller. Keep those guys, use them, take advantage of the arbitration side.

Merry Christmas to you and your family. You do an awesome job given the circumstances around the team you cover(even though you’re a Titan. Go Presidents). Regarding a Reynolds trade, what teams/Top 100 guys make sense to you? Any chance at all of the Pirates coalescing and giving him the long term offer he wants? Thanks!

Thanks so much, Ben. Appreciate it. Happy holidays to you and your family as well. ... There's no chance in this coming back together based on what I know. It's just a matter of when he's dealt, which I do think will be before the 2023 season ends. ... And a lot make sense, honestly. Anybody willing to deal multiple top-100 guys. Or someone with the capital to go, say, top-50 with some other quality pieces around it. Dodgers, Blue Jays, Yankees, Padres, Rangers. They could all get it done.

OK, folks. That does it for me this week. Thanks so much for participating. Lot of great questions. Hope you all have a wonderful holiday. Chat with you next week!

Jason, Hotel Illness is one of the greatest, least appreciated freaking rocking songs by any artist, let alone a solid music man such as myself. Your thoughts?

Hello Jason, thanks for the chat and merry Christmas. With Oneil Cruz seemingly sticking at short for now, what is the plan for Liover Peguero? Is he in line for a position change or will Cruz eventually end up in right field and Peguero sticking at short?

Hypnotized by your rotten behavior. I always thought "raunchy" would have been a better lyric. Still one hell of a jam. Concurrence on your end?

What percent chance do you see the Pirates bringing back McCutcheon? And what team looking for an outfielder do you believe has the best assets to obtain in a Reynolds trade? Thank you and Merry Christmas!

Jason, should I have held onto those cold weather assets for awhile longer? I bought into the global warming thing, I guess.   Buy low, sell high is always the goal, no?

Jason, trying desperately to head where those chilly winds don't blow, but I'm frozen out of my VW Microbus. You happen to have any of that stuff they squirt into door locks?

Not sure why they would sign a guy like vince velasquez and put him in the bullpen. Agreed? I would think he is line to be the 4th or 5th starter in the rotation?
