    A number of things would have to happen for the Cubs to realistically trade Castro. Baez would have to be killing it, showing that he can play in the bigs, while Castro struggled. As a Cubs fan, I don't think we have a need for Nova.

    Sanchez + Clarkin would work, because not only are we thin at catcher, we don't have much LHP depth.

    Since it's unrealistic that the Cubs trade Castro, I think that makes the Yankees getting rid of a 2013 draft pick in Clarkin okay.

    If Castro is playing like he did in his first couple of seasons, I'd say it'll take another piece.

      If they have the cap space and Owings is putting up good numbers, I could see that. I assume Papelbon is having a good season as well?

        I think your on to something with the SP+C combo going back to the Cubs but I'm sure Theo would insist on Pineda over Nova.

          1. Clarkin would be a PTBNL, as it's not only unrealistic to deal a recently drafted player, it's not allowed.

          2. I feel like the appropriate package would be something more like Pineda + Sanchez.

            How long do you have to wait to trade a recently drafted guy? Is the rule just one calendar year after they were drafted, or does it extend to after their first full season in the minors?

              Until the proceeding draft I believe.

                What if Nova is on fire and Starlin is hitting say .250-.260? Also like stated above Baez is killing AAA? Again not realistic since I'm sure Theo wants nothing to do with Nova. Starting a Yanks franchise soon myself so I'm just looking at any possible way to move Nova out of NY. Is there any other fair more so than realistic option for the Yanks without sending back Pineda? For some reason out of the 5 starters for the Yanks he's the easiest to pitch with and my best pitcher. Tanaka a close 2nd.

                  Pineda would go back to the Cubs. That's final.

                    Yes sir, Papelbon was the top vote getter for NL Closer, has a 1.01 ERA and is lighting it up. I could get more maybe, but I really want dump Papelbon's salary and have Gregorious be the gap between Rollins and Crawford, who is killing it in AA, but a ways away.

                      ACMilan, I'm still deciding where to move Masteron. Two options I'm thinking now, you let me know what you think.

                      Masterson to Rangers for Gallo and Matt Harrison (Harrison would be their #5 SP and I could use a lefty for my rotation)

                      Masterson and David Murphy to Angels (also competing for division and wild card) for Skaggs and Shuck. Masterson would give them a nice rotation of Weaver, Wilson, Masterson and Santiago (2.30 era so far with 6-5 record), plus Murphy would be their everyday RF with Calhoun hitting .207 on the year and. Murphy hitting .290 (was at like .315 but hit a cold streak).

                      I don't know much about Skaggs and how valuable he is, same for Shuck. If anything I could go for just one and a filler SP for my rotation. Thoughts?

                      Skaggs is also having a bad year - 4-6 with 4.85 era, Shuck is hitting .254

                        I am the Pirates, close to finishing up my first month. I am looking to add a better utility man than Clint Barmes and Josh Harrison. Mostly I dont like Barmes. I see that Steve Lombardozzi is in triple A for the Orioles. What would be a fair offer?

                            Good suggestions. Snider was the first name that came to mind in this trade.

                              Ok cool! I'll do Luebke + Kelly. That seems pretty good!

                                I would never bring up Xander in any trade talks ever, Red Sox think way too highly of him.
