    Trumbo really isn’t having a great season despite all the homers. I don’t think he even has 2 war yet. Whoever signs him is likely going to end up regretting it, especially after he leaves Camden yards

    Red Sox would be a great fit for Encarnacion

      thats where I think he would end up, not sure who else would get him unless the jays bring him back and not Bautista. Or if the sox don’t get Encarnacion they get Bautista to DH and split time at first or third
