Kaplan on shopping Fiers

quote:

With the deadline to tender contracts to arbitration-eligible players looming, Jake Kaplan of the Houston Chronicle reports that the Astros will “surely attempt to trade” right-hander Mike Fiers between now and that 8pm ET deadline on Friday.


I still think he would be a nice pickup for someone like San Diego with a huge park needing a guy who can eat innings. Could probably get him for next to nothing

Or they could wait until the deadline and get him for nothing.

Its no secret that Fiers pitched his way into a diminished role and off the post season roster. He's got no role on the Astros. He's affordable rotation depth who can be serviceable. It'd be nice to hold on to him for that reason but we've got a few back end/bullpen types which kind of force out Fiers. I think he ultimately gets non-tendered.
