Shackamaxon's Shopping Shack Max On Spectacular!

Another season, another list of quality players available for trade!

Major league batters

  • IF Jesus Alvarez - excellent bat, can play 2B or 3B and hit near the top of the lineup. Due to make $2m this year and next, followed by a team option.
  • IF Ieyasu Suzuki - virtually identical description to Alvarez: can play all over the IF and can hit. Due to make $2m total (!) over the next four years. Ideally, I trade one of the pair and keep the other.
  • IF Jonathan Locker and IF Tae-Sung Pak - I'm not looking to trade either young starter, but I'll listen to an offer for one of them. 
  • OF Lawrence Gould - superb corner OF, can play CF in a pinch, and mashes with power (289 ISO). Arbitration eligible after the season
Major league pitchers
  • MR Rick Taylor - swingman who excels in the bullpen. 3.44 ERA so far this year. Not eligible for arbitration for two more years after this one.
  • MR Dane Beck - another swingman, similar to Taylor except two years younger. Sparkling 2.22 ERA this year!
  • MR Tony Dominguez - reliable mid-to-late inning reliever. Free agent after this season. 
  • MR Kwang-Sub Kim - similar to Dominguez, with a team option for next season.
  • MR Edgardo Rodriguez - dominant late inning lefty. 3.10 ERA and 8.9K/9 so far this year. Team option for next season.
  • SP Qing-Hua Tso - free to a good home. Turnaround candidate in need of a fresh start. Team option for next season.
Minor league batters
Minor league pitchers
I will discuss traing any pitchers in my minor leagues (except the rookie league) excluding these players:

  • AAA: Juan Santiago, Todd Davis, Brian Powell, Joe Younger, Leonard Christopher
  • AA: James Ferguson, PJ Booker, Nate Gibbs
  • A: Micheal Leach
(Seriously, I'm not looking to deal one of those pitchers.)
