Now is that enough for them to start winning, doubtful. JR will sell some tickets in Seattle, no matter what. I say ship him back before the 600 and add to his value somewhat.
Anything we get back at all is fine, he just needs to go.

I understand what your saying but what do we really want from them that they might give up?
I'm serious I know next to nothing about their franchise. |

A bag of ash bats to replace the cedar ones would be a solid trade.
Seriously, I don't know their minor league system that well and we aren't going to get any good prospects from anyone, anyway.
It payflex and addition by subtraction.

Agreed, and I am with Jax do it before 600 and you get more trade value, as that will sell tickets there for a while...
Get a young player or two about AA level, maybe an leadoff type young CF, SS or young bullpen arm...Then you can bring up Bruce, and unload some salary...

Swung at a pitch. bat broke, ball slammed straight into his knee, walked it off and got a walk out of it but that walk gave us a point.

As much as I rag on David Ross, that bunt just brought a tear to my eye. That's something this team NEVER executes.
