  1. Would Josh Bell be a trade candidate? He has a 16 million dollar player option for next year that I would assume he will pick up at this point. He is a little better defensively than Rowdy and would be a decent boost at DH. My guess would be that he would cost very little in the way of prospects for a lower salary team like the Guardians. With guys like Lauer, Urias, Rowdy, Taylor possibly not being tendered and some FA's Caratini, Anderson, Miley, Winker we should be able to afford him next year (not to mention a possible trade of the big 3).
  2. In general i agree, however if Ohtani gets traded it would make up for a lot. I could see prices for slightly above average players being crazy high. There are some players like Goldschmidt, Hader, Snell, Bieber, Bednar, Scherzer, Verlander, and other who could make it interesting. The problem is there is very little depth, when out top target is someone like Candelario there is very little depth. On top of that, there are like 8 teams who need bats (plural) and maybe half a dozen truly solid good trade candidates.
  3. Any chance Chourio goes up to AAA soon or even the big league club. He is so hot it would make sense to try and bump him up. If he goes to AAA he could be a September call up, also there isn't a great AAA OF group with Frelich up.
  4. Luke Adams got 282.5k last year so most of those guys could sign for 300k-ish. Letson and Gholston maybe around 500k since they were ranked prospects.
  5. Grichuk and CJ Cron for Keston, JC Mejia/Peter Strezlecki, and Gregory Barrios We take on cash and get to potential better bats, the Rockies get 2 higher potential mlb ready guys who can audition this year and a lotto type prospect. Jeimer Candelario for Logan Henderson and Tyrone Taylor Henderson is a steep price to pay for a rental but Candelarii fits our needs well. C)Contreras 1B)Cron 2B) Montesario SS) Adames 3B) Candy LF) Yeli CF) Weimer/Frelick (send Weimer down for a couple weeks to get extra season of control and give Frelick a look) RF)Grichuk DH)rotate (eventually Rowdy) Bench) Miller, Anderson, Caratini, Perkins/Tapia, Turang/Peyton Henry/Alex Jackson That really lengthens out the offense and allows for CC to still have lots of matchup options. Maybe bring a 3rd catcher up so Caratini can play more. No more .200 hitters in the middle of the order. Willy could drop down to 6.
  6. I like the strategy used. In my opinion we got a 1st and 4 solid 2nd round talents (3 with 1st round potrntial). We also got to chose a couple of our scouts favorites like Woodward and Birchard. Then we took 2 or 3 HS kids who could have been top 5 round picks in 11-20 if one of the early HS guys doesn't sign.
  7. France would be ok but he does have an obp under .700. He was great the previous 2 years, but the Mariners are going to want a 2022 price for a guy who has been Brian Anderson-ish this year. If the price is like Hendry Mendez and Logan Henderson I think that could be doable but my guess is the M's would want more than that.
  8. He is having a very 2018 season where he was solid the first 100 games. Hopefully he his Barry Bonds-esque like the end of 2018 as well.
  9. What is the amount for 11-20 rounders that starts to count against the bonus. Was it 150k?
  10. Maybe in a couple years, Ramirez did Cleveland a solid with his contract. If they trade him they would lose a crazy amount of fan support.
  11. Jackson ChourioJeferson QueroJacob MisiorowskiSal FrelickTyler BlackBrock WilkenLuis LaraCarlos F RodriguezEric Brown JrRobert GasserAbner UribeJosh KnothCooper PrattEric BitontiDaniel GuilarteMike BoeveLogan HendersonJustin JarvisLuke AdamsDylan O'Rae I feel like this is the strongest our farm system has been in a really long time. There are easily 30 guys I could see in our top 20.
  12. I really like Black but the lack of defense at this time puts him 5 or lower in my opinion. Chourio is 3.5 years at the same level and is hitting 10ish points less (way lower obp). Chourio has way more defensive chops and power.
  13. I am over the moon with these signings. There might/should be enough to get Pratt, Bitonti, Letson, and a couple of the other HS picks later.
  14. Should it be concerning that we haven't signed any picks? I am sure we are just playing hardball trying to get every cent to sign Pratt and some of those 11-20 round picks. I know usually like 5 or 6 guys can sign at once. Maybe I'm just a bit antsy.
  15. Bellinger would be great however he is another guy that might cost one of our better prospects for. I would be all for giving up 2 guys in the 10-20 range of our ranking for him but not top 8-10. Renfroe would be fine, I wouldn't be over the moon but as a DH and occasional RF, meh (not sure how the clubhouse feel about him). With Cutch going back to Pitt. it sounded like he wasn't going anywhere. I believe I remember their GM saying that Cutch wasn't going anywhere as well. Would anyone take a risk on Tim Anderson to play 2B, he has been rough but I feel like getting in the playoff hunt would jump start him. He wouldn't cost much and could be a big boost if motivated correctly. If Jimenez isn't to badly hurt he would be interesting, however getting a young injury prone player who only really DH's could really hurt the long term outlook. I doubt the Sox sell low on him, they likely would need at least 1 borderline top 100 prospect and 2 other interesting pieces. With 3.5 years of control they won't sell low on a 26 year old. With Anderson out it seems like the perfect time to give Huira a chance. Is there some financial reason that Huira wouldn't get a chance.
  16. The Yankees just moved into last place, I am thinking the Red Sox won't be selling. The Angels, Padres, and Mariners are probably more likely to sell than the Red Sox. Of those teams Brandon Drury and Ty France are the only corner IF help (maybe Eugenio Suarez). Both would be really great but I think the price would be stepper than we would want.
  17. I feel like trading Weimer would be selling low. He should eventually hit over .250 and will win gold gloves in RF once Mitchell and Chourio are around in CF. There is a 5 WAR player in there at some point.
  18. Yeah, good point. I will adjust those offers. Hendry Mendez, Joseph Hernandez, and Abraham Toro for Turner Logan Henderson, Carlos Rodriguez (OF), and Jason Alexander for Candelario Both offers contain a top 15ish org prospect, top 30 and 40 man roster swap.
  19. End of year staff Rotation) Burnes, Woody, Peralta, Miley, Teheran/Rea Pen) Williams, Payamps, Peguro, Hoby, Bryse Wilson, Houser, Uribe, Ashby/Justin Wilson If Uribe isn't great and Ashby's rehab isn't on track by the end of the month I would be all for a depth add in the pen. However at this point I don't think it is high priority.
  20. On the value of our prospects. 1) Chourio is still a top 5 prospect, even though his ba isn't great he still has incredibly high potential, he just might not debut until the end of 24' (at 20) which is fine. There are probably only a couple dozen players in the league he would be traded for and I doubt any of those guys are available. 2)Quero and Misi at this point are widely undervalued, come next year they will both likely be around the top 30. So trading them at a lower value wouldn't make sense. 3) Frelick and Black are probably our 2 most likely to be traded prospects. I really don't want to trade them unless we are getting a top notch player with control. I like a 2025 lineup of C Quero/Contreras 1B Yeli/trade, 2B Black, SS Turang, 3B Wilken, 4 man OF Weimer, Chourio, Mitchell, Frelick, DH Contreras, Yeli, 4th OF way to much to sell on Black or Frelick for a short term bat.
  21. I can't see us getting Alonso or Goldschmidt at the deadline. However I could see a Burnes for Goldy based deal working in the offseason. The Cards needs pitching we need a bat, we could maybe extend Goldy for 2/50 through 2026 and the Cards could give Burnes a massive 8/260 style extension. I doubt Alonso moves anywhere, the Mets have lots of money coming of the books between this year and next. The Mets fans love him and have plenty of money to extend him.
  22. Justin Turner and Jeimer Candelario would be at the top of my list. I would try and find ways to trade some of our guys on the 40 man who are seemingly on the way out. Turner for Tyrone Taylor, Ethan Small/Janson Junk, and Gregory Barrios Candelario for Peter Strezlecki/Janson Junk, Abraham Toro, and Jeison Pena Each trade clears up 40 man roster space and improves our lineup without gicing ip meaningful future pieces. The other team 2 young controllable player with some mlb experience for this season and beyond and a lotto type prospect. 1) Yeli, 2) Turner, 3) Candyman, 4) Adames (if he continues to hit), 5) Contreras. That actually sounds like a decent 1-5 and we could make a swing at a decent DH/1B still.
  23. I am guessing he has a big arm with that high of an era.
  24. I was just trying to make the money work, you could take from Wilken and add some to Knoth and Pratt.
