I now have an abundance of hitters available for those who need bats.

Prince Fielder
Albert Pujols
Martin Prado/Daniel Murphy/Justin Turner

All have usable or very good projections and some play multiple positions. No specifically identified needs, so just get in touch with me about trades.

Going to leave the pitching alone for now...

Added to the first post, but no longer looking to move bullpen after dealing Strop yesterday. Lots of bats still available.

Bumping up. Quite a few talks on these guys, just not able to work out a deal to this point.

Focused on moving a couple guys who could be regulars for other teams looking to compete:

Prince Fielder
Albert Pujols
Martin Prado/Daniel Murphy/Justin Turner

Mostly looking for prospects and young players. Would also entertain a multiple player for an upgrade type deal if it exists.

Cabrera/Young dealt. Still willing to move one of the sluggers and perhaps one of the infielders.

Not sure how fruitful this will be, but I'm going to toss A.J. Pollock out for consideration. I'm not sure if there's hope he comes back this year, but if not, there's no reason to think he won't be a very good CF next year with speed/power. But, if I can find help for this year, I have to explore it. Ideal situation would net me a CF back, but really just gauging interest at this stage.

Fresh update here.

MLB vets available:

A.J. Pollock
Albert Pujols
Prince Fielder
Martin Prado
Daniel Murphy
Nick Markakis
Justin Turner
Rich Hill

Minor leaguers/young guys available:

Billy Burns
Mark Appel
Hunter Harvey
David Hess
Jordan Patterson
Kennys Vargas
Mauricio Dubon
Travis Jankowski
Greg Allen
Rio Ruiz

Main need is a this-year upgrade in CF or a long-term 3B solution. Open to other suggestions.

Fingers crossed...

A.J. Pollock hoping to resume baseball activities on July 1

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder A.J. Pollock, who fractured his right elbow on a headfirst slide into home plate April 1 in an exhibition game, has not ruled out playing again this season.

Pollock had surgery to insert a plate on the tip of his injured elbow and was told then by doctors he could not resume baseball activities for at least three months -- with the possibility that he could miss the entire season. However, the outfielder on Tuesday said he's on track to resume activities on July 1.

"I've never went into this thinking it's a dead year for me," Pollock told AZCentral.com on Tuesday. "I feel really good. I feel like everything is where it's supposed to be. It feels really strong. I can't remember one time I felt any discomfort. Mentally I don't even worry about it."

Pollock hit .315 last season with 39 doubles, 20 home runs, 39 stolen bases, 111 runs scored and 192 hits -- all career highs. His 192 hits led all outfielders. He earned his first All-Star berth, by players' vote, and won his first Gold Glove.
