Rockies Offseason

TRADE
NYM- Yency Almonte (19)
COL- Lucas Duda

Colorado needs a 1B. Duda will be available because the Mets are moving Michael Conforto to 1B. Almonte is a young project who could become a #4 starter or a relief pitcher.


PHI- Gerardo Parra
COL- Adam Morgan

With the emergence of Dahl, Parra and his contrat become expendable. PHI needs an OF and the Rockies could benefit from moving the contract. They get back a decent young pitcher to slot into their rotation. Morgan fits well in Coors because he is a strikeout pitcher who limits fly balls.


SIGN
SP- Hisashi Iwakuma 1 year $10 million


ROSTER
C- Nick Hundley
1B- Lucas Duda
2B- DJ LeMahieu
3B- Nolan Arenado
SS- Trevor Story
LF- David Dahl
CF- Charlie Blackmon
RF- Carlos Gonzalez

SP- Jonathon Gray
SP- Hisashi Iwakuma
SP- Tyler Anderson
SP- Adam Morgan
SP- Jeff Hoffman.

Mets aren't moving duda for another lefty outfielder. They have grandson bruce conforto and nimmo.

Trade 1 is horrrible. If that happens for whatever reason, then the Rockies are trading that guy for someone who will be injured all year and they'll und up getting nothing while giving up a prospect and losing over $6M. Iwakuma won't go anywhere because he fails too many physicals. And nonody should be interested in Adam Morgan. Phillies don't need a near 30-year-old who is making $8M a year.

"Phillies don't need a near 30-year-old who is making $8M a year"

8M a year for a guy like Parra is actually cheap.

Iwakuma is staying in Seattle; he pitched a certain number of innings which automatically qualifies him for another year.

Jerk, they have Joseph at 1st, and an outfield of Altherr, Hererra, and Borjous. No room there. Who would pay $8M for a backup outfielder on a rebuilding team?

Good god, I never said he was a fit in Philadelphia. I said $8M for a guy like Gerardo Parra is a steal.

Also, Bourjos is a free agent, and even if he weren't, Parra would be an immediate improvement over him.
