I'm not looking to add a lot but rather shuffle some pieces around and perhaps trim a little payroll. If I do add to the MLB club, it's likely to be pitching (starting or relief). SS/2B Jay BellJay Bell did exactly what I needed him to in 1996 but if I'm looking for somewhere to shave a little payroll, he's the obvious choice. He has a modest 1 year and 6.5m left on his contract but with Renteria in the wings, I can turn to the youngster. Finding reliable middle infielders doesn't seem to be all that easy and Bell has had an incredibly consistent career. 1B J.T. SnowMoving Snow isn't a given but I do have a bit of a logjam with the Olerud acquisition and Helton up for good. Helton can stay in LF but may as well listen on Snow for the time being. Gold glove 1B, good bat, reasonable contract. SP Adam PetersonIf anyone wants to try their luck with Peterson, now's the chance. The ratings have been consistently improving but it has yet to translate on field. Maybe it's just a change of scenery? OF Jay BuhnerBuhner has been officially squeezed out following last years acquisitions. Still a useful role player if you need a big vLH hitter INF Jeff ConineLike with Buhner, I'm not sure how I will be getting any playing time to Conine - undeservedly so coming off .923 OPS season. I can't explain Conine but he just keeps hiting. Has some positional flexibility at SS and the OF corners.

I'd like to get Jay Bell off the books, anyone need a one-year SS/2B? Cheap.

Anyone still looking for some short-term productive vet bats? Buhner, Bell, Conine?

I’m going to try and shake things up here...willing to listen on Alex Fernandez, Scott Radinsky, Todd Hundley. Negotiations still open on Jay Buhner, Jay Bell, Mel Rojas and JT Snow.
Adam Peterson can rot in hell.

Looking to move one of JT Snow or Kenny Lofton to make way for Andruw Jones. Lofton and Snow both GG winners last year and excellent bats. Could use SP otherwise prospects/picks.
