I've got some extra depth, with people stacked up at AAA, and wanted to see if anyone would trade a middling to low draft pick to improve their bench.
Infielder Julian Arenas. Arenas can play all four infield positions and has put up OPSs in AAA of .867 and .852 the last two years. Teams could do, and have done, a lot worse as a utility infielder.
Outfielder/first baseman Stephen Jackson. Jackson is a good bat off the bench, especially against right-handed pitchers. His OPSs in AAA the last two years are .885 and .967. He's hit 18 home runs in 552 major league at bats.
Outfielder Lawrence Fenster. Fenster also swings a good stick from the left side of the plate and posted an .879 OPS in AAA last year. He's only 23, so he may have some development left.
Starting pitcher Dennis Pickens. A former Rule 5 pick, Pickens put up a 4.93 ERA in the majors in 2016 and a 13-6 record with a 3.50 ERA in AAA last year. Not a lot of strikeouts, but he doesn't walk people or give up home runs.
Reliever John Burgess. A crafty lefthander. Burgess split time between the majors and AAA last year, posting an ERA of 3.81 in Seattle and 2.51 in Tacoma while striking out just about one batter per inning pitched.
Reliever Tsumich Yoshida. A 22-year-old righthander, Yoshida was hurt pretty much all of last year. In 2016, he had ERAs of 2.84 in the majors and 3.40 in AAA. The two yearsd before that, he had a 2.70 and 4.97 ERA in AAA.
So, if any of these guys can be of use, let me know and we'll work something out.
