Andre Ethier

[DHonks]

mlbtraderumors reports that Ethier may be made available this offseason. How about adding Ethier for RF, Hart to 1b, McGehee at 3b (or traded), Green in AAA just one call away, and Gamel on the bench starting several days per week?

I don't think the Brewers match up well with the Dodgers plus the Red Sox would be all over Ethier if he does become available. I do not see how the Brewers could compete with the Red Sox prospect wise.

Yeah, don't see us trading for anyone in the offseason. Just keeping most of our guys, probably going with some guys from the minors, and maybe signing a few lower priced free agents.

I actually see Melvin trading away some pieces on the major league club in the offseason to fix some positions of need.

I think Ethier would be a great target. They could sure use a lefty bat if Fielder leaves.

 

Morgan or McGehee? Granted Casey's value is low, but Ethier is a FA after next year. Brewers like Schafer a lot and still have Gomez, so Morgan, as special as he's been might be expendable and this might be the time to deal him.

Try Gindl, Peralta, and a PTBNL.

Hart, Gamel and Gindl for Eithier and Loney?

[craigharmann]

Better yet, Hart, Gamel, Gindl, Yuni and Parra for Ethier, Loney and Kemp....maybe if we pitch in Arnett, they'd throw in Kershaw.

[Cracked Bat Collector]

Being a fan of his since he's from my fave college, ASU, I would pass out if we got Ethier.

As much as I hate the idea of making a trade and moving a bunch of guys around, where would you see Gamel starting "several days a week?" Corey and Andre would play 155 games if healthy. That leaves 3B.

[Hate those Rodents]

I am hesitant on this, but I think given 500+ at bats for both, Green ends next season with a higher OPS and OBP than Gamel. That will maybe be a good offseason prediction thread.

[DHonks]

Nader, I'm as diehard as we get, but I would be heartbroken if we traded for Loney. I worked around him in the AFL and he was the biggest jerk I was around, outside of Keith Bucktrot. Give me 1000 Elijah "Anger Management" Dukes before you give me 1 James Loney. We have a fun team that plays hard...we don't need Loney, unless its for depth in AAA.

[PilprinBuddha]

I just don't see Gamel in Mke's plans....call it a gut feeling.
