And all though I really don't wanna lose Montero if it can get us a decent Pitcher I'd do it.
I'm more afraid of losing Buenelos in a trade because you know every team and their mother will be asking for him.  |
I wouldn't trade Montero for a 3 month rental. Posada may be on his way out, and Montero's bat is going to play, especially in that ball park. Unless they're getting someone like Jose Reyes form the Mets (who don't have a position for Montero with Ike Davis manning 1st base), I don't see it happening.
Sanchez might be a guy the ship out. He's only 18, and is probably a ways off considering his age and the fact that he's in Single A. I think a package of him, Romine, and maybe a lesser prospect, would be more than enough to net a nice piece. The only question that I'd have is; is there really anybody out there that would be on the trade block worth two top 100 minor leaguers and is that person a long term solution or a 3 month rental?
