What would it take to bring him in? I think he could compete for the 3B job- and wouldn't believe that he'd cost that much in a trade. maybe a Brooks Hall, Michael Strong or Daniel Fields? he's 29, but has always excelled at AAA, plays multiple positions and has never been given a legitimate shot at the majors.

If he's 29 and has never gotten a good shot at the majors, doesn't that say something about his upside? These kinds of players we need to stay away from if we're rebuilding...just like Jason Rogers (better look out, the pitchforks will be after me!), Shane Peterson, etc.

it will be curious if they go short term or look for a long term solution via the trade.

With gatewood and most likely lara competing for 3b in the near future, i dont think a long term (3+ years) trade makes a whole lot of sense. At least not until we have some idea as to what we have in them. Stopgap 3b for the next couple years works for me. Id rather they target a long term 1b for now.
