    I know it's way to early but who doesn't love trade and free agent ideas for next year.
  2. jay87shot
    With Cahna, Yeli, Frelick, Weimer, Anderson, Perkins, and Taylor I think the OF is covered. We only have 4 guys who can play 2B, SS, and 3B in Turang, Adames. Anderson, and Montesterio. It will definitely make pinch hitting the non starter hard at least until the very end of the game. Perkins, Taylor, and Weimer (just for 2 weeks to get his extra year of contol) all could/should go down. VS RHP C Contreras, 1B Santana, 2B Turang, SS Willy, 3B Monty, LF Yeli, CF Frelick, RF Anderson/Canha DH Canha/Anderson (No more Weimer VS. RHP) VS LHP C Contreras, 1B Santana, 2B Monty, SS Adames, 3B Anderson, Lf Yeli, CF Weimer, RF Taylor/Perkins, DH Canha

    1) B+. Santana helps 1B defense and provides a better middle of the order bat than what has been put out there. Barrios has some high end upside to make this bad in the long term. 2)B+. Basically the same boat as the Santana trade, his defensive versatility can help and is at least a huge improvement at DH and verse lefties. Jarvis is at best Adrian Houser in a few years so we don't really lise a ton of potential. 3)A. I love this deal, I don't see Strez turning into legit high stress reliever. Chafin had amazing 21 and 22 seasons, if he can limit the walks he will be a huge add. Add in a potentially pickupable 2024 option and jackpot. 4)A-. This depends on if you think Urias would have had a chance to be a 2B upgrade. However I feel like we would have non-tendered Urias next year so getting a solid young arm is great. 5)A. McKendry kind of has a Jason Alexander/Colin Rea feel to him next year. With Henry, Naveretto, and Quero getting something something interesting is a win. Missing opportunities= There really weren't any big bats to be had at a reasonable price. However not getting a 2B/3B upgrade does seem like a bit of a miss. Final Grade= A-. We got 3 solid improvements and got a prospect who is better than anyone we gave up. There were no wow moves but we are better set to compete and didn't lose anything towards the future.

    1) Santana for Barrios 2) Canha for Jarvis 3) Chafin for Strezlecki 4) Blalock for Urias 5) McKendry for Jackson Missed opportunities= Overall deadline Grade=

    He probably would pass through unprotected even if we send him to AA a some point.
  6. jay87shot
    Blalock ranked #17 on the Red Sox rankings for fan graphs. Here is a red sox site scouting report https://soxprospects.com/players/blalock-bradley.htm Looks like a good get if management didn't plan for him to return and the non tendered next year.

    Agreed we spend a bunch of money on Brian Anderson, Voit, Hiura as well as all the in-season pickups (Ruf, Tapia, etc.). You could add Winker as well but I think most of us were ok with that. The problem is none of those guys have much upside. If we just found 1 better bat for similar value (Bellinger, Drury) and filled the hole in with our depth things would be better.
  8. jay87shot
    I like this deal, Canha can let Weimer go down to AAA to get his extra year. Go Yeli, Frelick, Canha with Perkins and Miller as depth or to let Canha DH.In a few weeks Canha goes to DH/1B platoon and 4th OF. He hits LHP really well and is solid. Is he sparkly, no but he is better than most of our lineup. The option is interesting and unlikely but he could be a good option to decline the 11.5 mill option and then resign. Jarvis is solid but ultimately we have Peralta, Ashby, Gasser, Rodriguez, Misi maybe Woody that would be ahead of him. Best case he could be like Houser worse Dylan File/Alec Bettinger.
  9. jay87shot
    Yes, sorry thought I had that in there. Burnes for Kim based trade this offseason.
  10. jay87shot
    Kim would be nice but I wouldnt give up Chourio, Misi, or Quero. I would be ok with a solid package for him however my guess is the Pads would want an established player for him. A prospect package of Frelick, and 2 10-20 ranked prospect seems reasonable. I think maybe something based on a Burnes for Kim swap this summer might make more sense. The Pads could lose Snell, Lugo, and Wacha with Darvish going down hill they don't have much in there rotation after Joe Musgrove and little in the way of interesting upper minors arms.
  11. jay87shot
    What about Michael Kopech from the White Sox's. He has 2 and half year left and a top of the rotation arm. I feel like our pitching team could improve his change-up and he could go from a 4+ era guy to a sub 3. I would give up a top 100 prospect but Gasser and Eric Brown seems like start of a solid package for him.
  12. jay87shot
    Just a place to organize trade ideas with 3 days left to the deadline.
  13. jay87shot
    Would it make sense to bring Woody up for his next start? I know they want 1-2 more rehab starts however 85-90% of Woody for 70 pitches is better than Rea, Teheran, or Houser will give you. If Woody is throwing anyways and his stuff has been good why not have it in the big leagues. His next start would be at the Nats or home vs. Pirates so it's not like he would be facing a daunting offense.
  14. jay87shot
    I wouldnt offer any of our top 10 prospects for Eloy. I would probably give 3 solid prospects but his injury concerns any k/bb rates would keep me away from anything substantial. My best offer would be Logan Henderson, Hendry Mendez, and Carlos Rodriguez (OF). I feel like that is a substantial offer with good upside but nothing to crazy that would make us really regret it. That being said I am sure the Sox would want/get a top 100 prospect and more.
  15. jay87shot
    I wouldn't be a fan of trading Caratini. We do have 2 solid AAA catchers (3 with Naveretto) however I can't see us getting more than a prospect like Johnny Severino (Santana trade). To me that just isn't worth risking a Burnes decline.
  16. jay87shot
    I wrote in a different thread I wrote that Jorge Polanco would be a good fit. Jeimer would be my #1 if the price doesn't get to high.
  17. jay87shot
    He moves the needle a bunch in my opinion. He adds a bunch of defense at first and solid run producing (53 rbis). Somehow only 3 gdp's and respectable strikeout rate which means he probably make productive outs. We could still use another middle of the order bat at 2B, 3B, or DH (maybe OF).
  18. jay87shot
    The Angels are a joke, their rotation still isn't very good. Giolito is like a solid 3 when you get to the playoffs. There backend of the bullpen is solid with Estevez and Moore, Lopez can be a passable 7th inning guy but unspectacular. They have plenty of guys on offense if they could get healthy. However when healthy they aren't a great defensive or base running team. They have like an 8% chance of making the playoffs. Add on the worst minor league system after this trade. If they almost no interesting trade prospects after O'Hoppe who is there catcher just hurt. Why would Shohei stay with what they have. Almost nothing after a injury prone Trout.
  19. jay87shot
    I think the quote there of not wanting to spare run prevention is huge. Santana is a huge 1st upgrade, +6 runs. Rowdy can focus on DH when back. My guess is Jeimer Candalario has to be our top target. He isn't a gold glover but has had a positive runs scored metric. Jorge Polanco would be an interesting name for 2B. He is set to come off the IL any day and is a solid defense 2B who could be a big improvement offensively. The Twins have Julian playing really well at 2B and I am sure there is something we have in an arm that would be interesting to them. He also has 2 reasonable team options if he plays well the rest of the way.
  20. jay87shot
    I vote no hesitantly. Obviously there is always a trade that would be to good to pass up. However we shouldn't be cash strapped for 3/4 years unless we really want to sign all 3 of the big 3.
  21. jay87shot
    Great deal, Severino has a little upside but Santana has been pretty good lately and will help 1st and DH. If he can hit .250/.350 the rest of the way it would be huge.
  22. jay87shot
    Would he move the needle, yes but not as much as using the same resources for a bat. The problem with Rodriguez is that he is a good number 4 starter (possible #3 at times) who was awesome to start the year and has slowly been coming back down to earth. He also 3 year at 16ish mill a year and that only gets picked up if he blows out his arm or is truly awful. My guess is that he would cost a top 10 and top 20 prospect and using that capital could get us 2 good bats. Say it would cost Eric Brown and Logan Henderson for Rodriguez (and that might not be enough seeing what Giolito was traded for) We could trade EBJ for Jeimer and maybe a small throw in. Then Henderson for cj cron (maybe a bit more from us.
  23. jay87shot
    This. If Woody pitches well I doubt his contract would be to crazy. 5/100ish maybe an opt. out or the last year or two are options. Burnes will still bring in a top50-ish prospect and at least a couple other strong pieces (I still love Burnes for Goldschimt and a second piece in the offseason). Adames hasn't hit well enough to pay or for someone to give a substantial trade package.
  24. jay87shot
    What about a trade for a mlb ready prospect with the Rangers, they have Seager, Semien, Duran in the bigs and then Acuna and Foscue in the upper minors. I think Foscue is mlb ready and fits our mold of low k players. Foscue for Houser and a throw in or Foscue for Daniel Guiallrte and Janson Junk. Connor Norby and Michael Busch would probably be similar prospects. However Busch is more a LF/1B defensively. Edit:Tyler Freeman would be interesting to.
  25. jay87shot
    Can't trade deadline, need to keep at it. August 1 though will be a sloppy night in the front office.
