Chuck & Buck 4-9 Hour 2: Headlines and the Draftmas Catalog, ABC's of the Mariners and Stocking Stuffers!

Headlines and Draftmas Catalog Today, we’re taking a look at some of the wide receivers available in the draft. Will any of them draw the Seahawks’ eye? :30- ABCs of the Mariners Chuck is using the ABC’s to propose a trade… X is for Expectations: The Mariners have expectations to go to the World Series this year and they aren’t letting a 4-9 start get in the way of that. The Chicago Cubs also have eyes on the World Series prize, but they have a lot of injuries to their starting rotation and that could make them excellent trade partners. Soooo, Chuck is trading Luis Castillo and Victor Robles for Ian Happ and Javier Assad or Ben Brown. You keep your pitching depth and improve your defense in left field. Y is for Year: Happ only has a year on his contract, but that could work in your benefit. Z is for Zen Garden: no increased payroll (actually decreases), frees up Hancock and adds depth to bullpen, potential starting depth if needed as well. You’ve improved your defense and eliminated a platoon, plus you free up money for next year when Anderson and Sloane might come up. :45- Draftmas Stocking Stuffers - There’s rumors that there will be a lot of trade activity in this draft. It is a down year, so wouldn’t that heighten the opportunity to package some picks up and trade for that one special player? - The Seahawks are being linked to Chris Johnson, a CB out of SDSU.
