January 15, 200917 yr I just read that we managed to agree a 1 year, $500k deal with Dallas and so avoid arby with him
January 15, 200917 yr Still gonna have to battle Bonifacio for a roster spot. I'd give Emilio the slight edge because of his defensive abilities.
January 15, 200917 yr no, he can still be DFA'd. At which point another team could claim him, or nobody does and we outright him to AAA and at the end of the year either we put him back on the 40 man roster (have control over him) or he becomes a minor league free agent. Also, a team can only outright a player once. If that player had already been outrighted in his career, then he has the choice of becoming a free agent instead. But that's not the case with Dallas.
January 15, 200917 yr Doesn't this mean he's guaranteed a ML roster spot? I think he's out of options and we have to keep him up here. I hope he contributes and if some one gets injured can jump right in.

Wasn't he outrighted by the Angels?
January 15, 200917 yr no, he was non-tendered. He was due for arbitration last season, and the Angels didn't want to pay it.

Damn I thought the angels outrighted him guess not.
January 15, 200917 yr Still gonna have to battle Bonifacio for a roster spot. I'd give Emilio the slight edge because of his defensive abilities. 100% incorrect. McPherson is a lock. Bonifacio can be optioned to AAA.

January 16, 200917 yr Still gonna have to battle Bonifacio for a roster spot. I'd give Emilio the slight edge because of his defensive abilities. 100% incorrect. McPherson is a lock. Bonifacio can be optioned to AAA. This. Dallas could be huge for us off the bench, if he's willing to take that role. A power lefty bat off the bench is a huge asset, and its the type of bat we are seriously lacking. He's also the best option within the organization to take over at third if Gaby doesn't pan out at first. My guess is Bonifacio will be a September call up. Once we decline to give Amezaga arby in 2010, Bonifacio steps in as the replacement.

Once we decline to give Amezaga arby in 2010, Bonifacio steps in as the replacement. Bingo. But my question is, Does Dallas really have a choice? If he is put on the list as a bench player, I say let him beat somebody else out of a job.

January 16, 200917 yr Looking at all the moves so far this off-season you really gotta believe some more trading will be in the works. The roster is unbalanced at this moment. Anibal and Dallas maybe on their way out hopefully for an outfielder and catching prospect
January 16, 200917 yr Still gonna have to battle Bonifacio for a roster spot. I'd give Emilio the slight edge because of his defensive abilities. 100% incorrect. McPherson is a lock. Bonifacio can be optioned to AAA. And the reasoning behind him being a lock is?

January 16, 200917 yr Wow. I am so happy right now. Imagine, we are here discussing a bunch of good players and who we should start over who. Not a bad problem to have. An excess of young talent. Love it. :umbrella

Love it. :umbrella great perspective. also, lament the helms signing all you want, but the fact is, if gaby and dallas both fail to produce squat this season, we still have fairly legit corner infielders in wes and jorge.
