Is Joey Bart a piece in a big trade or just a small trade prospect for prospect?
Mark P
9:30
By this point, Bart's stock has dropped to the point that he wouldn't be the headliner in a trade package for a prominent player.  Some kind of swap for another post-hype prospect would be interesting to see if either could get a breakout on a new team, or the Giants (maybe more likely) could try to package Bart along with a young pitcher for a proven veteran

Heard of my new movie called the… Beekeeper?

Beadkeepers?!

Do you think the cardinals are done making moves after gray Lynn Gibson and kitterage
Mark P
9:32
They'll add at least one more reliever, and I wouldn't be shocked if they acquired another starter and bumped Matz to a swingman role
Houston B.

Hearing little
Mark P

On the Astros?  They don't really have any truly glaring holes, apart from perhaps maybe the bullpen.  Not surprising that it's been a pretty quiet winter thus far in Houston

Who wins the National Championship Monday night? I feel Michigan has it. What do you think?
Mark P
9:36
I'm kind of rooting for the Wolverines by proxy since I have a lot of friends who are Michigan fans.  But, I admit I'd like the symbolism of Washington winning the championship as one final triumph for the Pac-12

Bieber traded before spring training?    Before Opening Day? Or at the trade deadline?
Mark P
9:36
I'm still of the opinion that he'll be traded before Opening Day, and probably before the start of spring camp

Glaybor Torres + for Burnes, who says no?
Mark P
9:37
Brewers.  They'd want some kind of long-term help for Burnes, not another player who's a free agent next offseason.

Now, some kind of package deal where New York and Milwaukee each trade multiple players including Burnes and Gleyber would be interesting....

kenley jansen by jack leiter. makes sense?
Mark P
9:41
Leiter's stock may be down, but the Rangers aren't going to sell low on him.  Jansen is a good pitcher obviously, but one year of a reliever for a #2 overall pick (less than three years ago) doesn't make much sense from the Rangers' perspective
Trout
9:41
I will let people know if I'm being traded as I have a no trade in my contract.
Mark P
9:43
I think most people discussing Trout trades just assume that he'd waive his NTC to join a contender, though that also gets into the tricky situation or whether or not the Angels would move Trout if he asked out
9:44
Well, time to wrap up the chat, since the Dodgers just signed Teoscar Hernandez (!)  We'll be back next weekend with another chat, including probably some answers about this very signing
