    We get IKF, the Dodgers get Civale, and the Pirates get a prospect or 2 from the Dodgers. We upgrade SS and 3B and relieve some overcrowding at SP, the Dodgers get a healthy vet pitcher to help with all their injuries. The Pirates save some money and get a prospect or two.

    Agreed, Pretty sure we would have to start with Misi or Henderson and then add a couple of the guys originally listed. I like Westburg but that doesn't seem wise since he is hitting under .220 at the moment. Urias is the easy O to go after for now.

    I like the Turang at SS and Siegler and probably Collins some at 2nd. For a couple weeks I don't see it hurting and it would be nice for next year just to see exactly what Turang looks like at SS just for the future.

    Because it might be the best way to get a SS/3B or maybe some would feel like he is at peek value and will never be better. He has been good and again I wouldn't give him away but for an overpay it should be considered. A reliever, especially a closer is always like 3 bad outings away from imploding there trade value. I still love Yoho, I am not saying he is a take over the closer role tomorrow guy but he has an ERA under 1 in AAA. The stuff movement is top notch, I think if Megill did get traded he would come up and could be a guy later in the year to take big innings be it the 7th or 8th and be in the conversation to close next year. As for Rob Z and McGee, that is always how our team operates trying to add arms for free-ish (Rob Z.) or steal a couple innings for an option to reduce the overworked pen (McGee).

    I could make a case for any of Wilken, Boeve, or Adams to get a promotion. Then Burke to AA, it would be nice to be able to move or another good bat to Appleton but with Josh A. would have been the guy but injuries, Bitonti isn't quite ready. Garcia to AA and Pena to A+ would work well also. Murray could go to AAA if space in AA needed.

    I would be OK with trading MeGill if the value is right. Last year the Padres gave up a top 100 prospect and 2 other solid prospects for Jason Adam, I would probably say that is about right as an overpay for Megill. It would be great if we could make that a SS or 3B return. With Uribe, Ashby, Yoho, and others (Mears, Koenig) we can survive losing Megill. If the price isn't right I would trade home before Freddy or one of the top 6-7 prospects.

    The problem is that Mone isn't a better option. That ab in the 8th against Adam from Mone is about as bad as it gets. If we could even add a washed up vet for a couple weeks I would be on board.

    Mlb pipeline just doesn't upgrade there rankings ever. Last week I read an article that they "updated" the rankings but in reality they just add Josh A. to 16 when Collins lost prospect status. They only rerank players like in August after the draft and in the offseason.

    Yophery is hitting g .173/.314/.282 and Holobetz 3.98 era in 20.1 innings 6 bb 16 k's. With Priester coming around this is looking better than early in the year. If he can develop a strike-out pitch he could have some upside to be a higher end starter sinker baller like Logan Webb.

    I voted Rhys but regret that on 2nd thought. The NL has Harper, Alonso, Freeman, and Olsen. My 2nd thought was Sal but the NL OF is loaded as well. Turang probably has the best path, ai like Uribe as well but think the lack of save will hold him back. I seeiously think Yeli is going to hit .300+ with like 10 more HR in by mid July. That likely puts him around .275-.280 with 23 HR and 15+ sb.

    I love the idea of an 8 man piggyback rotation on a 4 day run for next year. If we trade Freddy this offseason I could see it making a lot of sense. Each pitcher goes around 60-70 pitches for an average of 4 innings each. That leaves a 5 man bullpen to soak up 1-2 innings a night and you could make a bullpen game easy if we have a couple taxi AAA starters. You could also switch to a tradional 5/6 man rotation easily if/when injuries happen. 1)Misi/Gasser 2)Patrick/Ashby 3)Hall/Priester 4)Henderson/Myers That would leave our deep underrated AA staff, CarRod, and any other prospect (from Freddy deal) or other cheap veteran additions as depth.

    Agreed, Mitchell has so much upside that trading him doesn't make much sense. We probably just need to on planning on having 4 quality OF with a couple of utility guys like Bauers and Collins who can play OF. I doubt we would get anything of value for Mitchell who still has 20-20+ potential with gold glove defense. At this point it is unlikely he ever play 140+ games in a year but here is to hoping. Maybe by mid-late 2026 Lara will force him to the 4th OF role and it will be easier to trade him.

    Jared Spencer is a senior reliever at Texas (via Indiana St)., as like a 5-10th round pick to save money I think there is some great upside. A 6'3" lefty sits 93-95 up to 97 with a 3 pitch mix. Younger for a senior (22 in July), his delivery and pitch mix looks a lot like Hader.
  14. jay87shot
    I was coming here to ask about Bauer. I am consistently seeing him out of the 1st. I can't believe a HS lefty who can throw 102 with what looks like an easy smooth delivery isn't a consensus top 10-15 pick. Bauer, Schoolcraft, and 3B Xavier Neyens make 3 super interesting HS options with out of the world ceilings.
  15. jay87shot
    Being tomorrow is June 6 and historically there are no super 2 players after June 6th I expect to see Misi soon. We play 10 games in 10 days so a piggyback day like they have done with Hall/Priester would be perfect for a debut. I don't know how they lineup but putting him in front of Quintana for 3/4 innings would be a great pairing. Maybe he only last an outing or two but I'm ready to unleash some "Misi"ery on the world.

    With Sal hitting so well and Contreras struggling to drive in runs I think it might be a good idea to move Sal up against righties and let him play vs. lefties. What do we think about 1) Sal 2)Chourio 3)Yeli 4)Rhys 5)Turang 6)William 7)Bauers 8)Durbs 9) Ortiz vs. RHP VS LHP 1) Chourio 2)William 3)Yeli 4)Rhys 5)Sal/Turang 6)Collins 7)Durbin 8) Ortiz 9) Sal/Turang

    Vindication, put some respect on those names. Nioce Any chance Logan Henderson is getting on top 100 lists? With 4 big starts and impressive minors numbers he is a perfect guy to fit into the back end of these lists. Maybe if Bitonti hits 5 more HR in the next 3 games a again he could too. Haha
  18. jay87shot
    I think there are a ton of options based on how deep our system is. It also depends on how national evaluators put guys in their top 30. Di Turi, Burke, Arienamo, Hardin, a couple of the rookie ball teenage pitchers (Dorchies, Renz, Dubanewitz, King, Mercedes), Manny Rodriguez, and any place that doesn't have Luis Pena as a top 100 prospect will be vastly underrating him as well (probably a dozen other good options). We do have over 50 prospects that deserve to be in the top 30.
  19. jay87shot
    I would go with Cornielle if they want pitching. His stats are enticing but doesn't have nearly the upside of Wichrowski. Then add a 2nd piece like Alastre who has some intregue but isn't a big part of our future (lower ceiling).
  20. jay87shot
    I think Isiah Kiner Faleafa is the guy to go after at least early like now. He doesn't have the power that our lineup could use but he is a plus defender at SS and 3B. He hits well enough to at consistency and at 7.5 million the Pirates might move him early to save some money. Maybe something like Wes Clarke and Hedbert/Garcia would be enough.
  21. jay87shot
    That entire AA rotation is severely underrated. Crow, Kuehner, Cornielle, Hunt, and Wichrowski all have the ability to be solid 4/5 starters with some traits that could make them more than that. Pena is just spectacular, easily a top 100 prospect at this point and maybe top 50. A future IF with Made, Pratt, Pena, Josh A, Turang, and Adams/Boeve/Bitonti/Wilken/Burke is just amazing to think about. I don't know much about Carra buy he seems to fit the mold of our Latino pitchers. If he can get to 95 or so there is a high ceiling.
  22. jay87shot
    I think Made still has a higher ceiling, because of the power potential. However as Pena is showing more power everyday it is getting close. Pena is definitely further ahead right now. I would put the odds of him staying in Carolina through June at slim to none.

    Any chance we pull a Hader style move this deadline if we continue playing like the past week. We have enough depth to cover losing Freddie but with attendance down to start the year I can't see the front office doing that. I still think it might make sense, at this point we could get a overpay for him with a lack of high end pitching that will be on the market. Here is to hoping the team stays hot and we don't have to worry about it until the offseason.
  24. jay87shot
    A road sweep of the Phillies, oh yeah. The offense is starting to get more consistent and the pitching staff is getting to full strength. Bring on the Reds
  25. jay87shot
    It's nice to see Kuehner coming on strong after a couple not great starts at the beginning of the year. Burke needs a call up, even if he isn't hitting bombs. He needs a chance to get some serious AA ab's in to allow him a chance to compete with EMJ, Black, Boeve, Adam's, and Wilken for 1B next year if need be.
