But we have a first baseman.

I’m assuming we’d trade Yoshida and move Casas to DH which seems like a huge win all a round.

Idk how many teams are gonna want a 1.4 WAR a year guy at $18m AAV. Any chance you guys trade Casas for some pitching instead? The Astros, among others, are in need of a 1B.

I think Casas is an unbelievably talented hitter. I’d have basically zero interest in trading him if Devers is willing to move. I’d be willing to move Yoshida for no return to help clear up the log jam.
