HDID: Mixed Keep Forever

[virgonomic]

Tough call. JDM is four years older, but Yelich...well, it's not been good for two partial seasons so far. I don't see how you keep him over those four if you're in win-now mode next year.

Thanks. My core is those 4 plus Tatis Franco Strasburg(?) Severino(?) so I'm definitely in win now mode. A dumper has interest in Yelich as a top 4 keeper next year.

Interesting article. He isn't chasing pitches, just not swinging well.

The other question is: is he worth keeping around as a bench bat? If so, I can trade his rights for 2022 now or move him in the offseason.

What is he offering?

If it helps win this year I would easily trade him.

Perez/Voit/May is the package (5x5, H+SV). I'd be dropping TyRogers/Odorizzi and benching 2 of: Voit/Franco/Gallo/Tapia on nights where everyone plays.

I traded Jazz/Yelich/picks for Perez/May/4 adds (25 per year).

Tatis and Kaprielian went to IR so I held Rogers/Odorizzi and picked up Megill.

I have 1B Myers and 2B Merrifield with no backup so I'm looking for a backup 1B/2B.

Who are the top 3-4 names ROS from the list of FA?
