That will depend on the races, who is in it, who needs SP, and what his stats are! Will gladly help...Unless you want to deal him before the season start?

Sheesh. Don't have much to play with. Cozart could get a low C, Hamilton could get 2 C's or a low B, Votto is stuck to you...Honestly it will depend on how players start the season for you.

What about Duvall?? Mesarocco?

I'll wait until my franchise is underway (when OSFM releases) and then I'll try to move him at the deadline. But I'll definitely take you up on the offer then!

Duvall needs to prove more than a one year wonder, and he wasn't truly that great anyway outside of dingers.

Mesaroco hasnt been healthy since 2014.

Duvall could net 2 C's right now, and Devin about nothing.

Now that's something to chew on for Puig. Would still have a bit of trouble trading Reid-Foley but depending on the development of Zeuch/Harris in our system I'd probably pull the trigger on:

Blue Jays:

Puig

Dodgers:

Reid-Foley
Leon/Other RP/P 'spect
Pentecost/McGuire

Shift Joey Bats to LF/1B, Puig to RF. Think that's a much more workable outfield. Thanks.

Was looking at Mike Foltynewicz, as an option, what would it take for him?

25 year old who hasn't been necessarily good in the pros, but does have upside to be a big arm. Interesting thought, but with how heavy the Braves are at pitching they would probably want someone of similar potential at an offensive position need.

He still has 5 years of service time and seems like he is starting to turn things around this spring. I think they would want something pretty substatial in return. I'm sure they'd ask for Sanchez which wouldn't happen. Then Frazier, but we all know that isn't realistic either.

So realistically I think you would have to offer something like Judge or Mateo plus Andujar or Kaprielian plus Fowler. Something like $45 million in surplus value.
