jay87shot’s 2025 Payroll Blueprint: Post-Meetings Thoughts

[jay87shot]

Devin and Freddie Peralta to Tex for Josh Jung, Nate Lowe, Jack Leiter, Brock Porter

Rhys and Black to Arizona for P Landon Sims, OF Jack Hurley

Peguero to Royals for comp b pick and C Hyungchan Um

Sign P Max Scherzer 1/25

Basically we go big on the offense and put some faith in the pitching that the high ceiling arms come through and the young arms can get some experience for 26' with no Woody, Civale, Scherzer potentially.
