Biggest offseason for my Mets in a long time, got to find a bat or two in order to contend for the playoffs for real.
 
Want Cuddyer?
Not worth giving up a first round pick for if he doesn't accept his qualifying offer. 

The MLB system of having to give up draft picks for signing players is so stupid. They don't want the big market teams to just sign every free agent, but I don't think they foresaw what was going to happen by putting these rules in place. 
 
Would love to bring back Reyes if we didn't have to give up too much and sign Melky. Those two moves would be ideal to me.
 
Only thing the Nationals desperately need is a 2B. Free agent market is overall extremely "meh" at that position. I'm looking for Rizzo to trade for a MI who can play SS and 2B in case Desmond bolts in free agency next year. I'd look for him to target Zobrist. Not really sure what he's gonna do, but I'm hoping he's not gonna stand pat and trot Espinosa out there again :x

Rizzo has a soft spot for the D-Backs. Asked about Didi before the deadline this past season as well. Wouldn't shock me if he ends up over here.

I think they need sp too and we got detweiler and Taylor jordan (if people still think he's good) plus like 3-4 sp prospects in the minors who are supposed to be something. So I hope that has a good chance of coming through and if we can finagle brad zeigler outta them while we're at it I would be very happy
 
But I hope we keep giolito cuz I think he's gonna be the man only exception to that is if we make a play for Giancarlo

No way they give up Giolito in a deal for Didi. More than likely it'll be one of the guys you mentioned, and a position player like Steven Souza or Jeff Kobernus/Tyler Moore.

Personally, if I'm the GM, I go out and try to get Max Scherzer. Doing this enables us to move Jordan Zimmermann (who is a free agent after the season) for a legit 2B. Ideally, I'd like for us to go and get Howie Kendrick or Ben Zobrist. The problem with these guys is that they're both in the final year of their deals as well. It'll be interesting to see how Rizzo goes about filling the position.
 
Very happy to read that the Dodgers replaced that bum with a capable front office man with Athletics ties. The A's-Dodgers connection grows stronger :pimp:
 
Andrelton Simmons and Jason Heyward Gold Glove winners :pimp: :D they are the BEST DEFENSIVE players in the entire MLB. Heyward > Legares

Heyward just needs to hit next year. Braves Offseason moves please get rid of BJ Upton package him with Justin Upton i don't even care. Sign/Trade for Starting Pitchers. Keep Gattis
