What are your thoughts on atkins and the jays bringing back Kikuchi?
Mark P

A reunion isn't out of the question, but as much as another solid starter would really help the rotation, the Jays have a bigger need for hitting.  No real reason they couldn't do both, of course.

Atkins has done a solid job as GM overall but I have serious concerns over the state of the farm system, and how the big league roster seems to have already missed its window of contention.

Is this hear that Trout finally escapes the Angels?
Mark P
9:05
The Angels probably aren't keen to trade him, and what team would be willing to take on a player with Trout's injury history and huge contract?
Anthony
9:07
how would a France or  O’ Hearn work for Houston at 1B?  1 year $5-6M
Mark P
9:08
Neither is too inspiring a choice.  O'Hearn would be my preference of the two, but then you'd still need a right-handed hitting 1B to spell O'Hearn against lefties

Do you like Kim as a realistic 2B fit for NYY?
Mark P
9:09
Assuming that Kim wants to stay at shortstop, he's going to sign with a team that lets him play his preferred position
Cardinals

Is it better to trade Helsley before spring training or at the trade deadline?
Mark P
9:10
During the offseason.  Teams will pay more for a full season of Helsley than just a couple of months.
Tigers
9:10
Is Randal Grichuk a good fit for the tigers as a 4 OF/platoon bat?
Mark P
9:11
I like that fit a lot.  Grichuk is a lefty-masher that nicely complements Detroit's lefty-heavy lineup.
James
9:12
Could the O’s sign Adley long-term to a discount extension this winter after his rough second half to his 2024 campaign?
Mark P
9:12
Highly unlikely
9:13
Not that they wouldn't extend him, but I don't see Rutschman signing a discount

We've passed the two-hour mark, so let's wind things up.  Thanks to everyone for submitting questions, and thanks to front offices around baseball for not breaking any news during this extended chat period.  :)
