Actually they are as many as 7 buyers in the AL.    So it’s very possible Bum and one or two other starters could be traded.  Actually Shark May be the 2nd choice of others

But trading Smith would be dumb and dumber unless they know they can’t resign him.

I am sure there are plenty of teams that WANT Bum. The question is, how much will they be willing to give up, especially for a short-term rental?
