    All the other players on your list are relatively available as well, some not because they just signed but that's all.


    Maybe I can package a prospect to get both? Or maybe even a MLB player. Tim Beckham is available as well.

      I agree, though they could package him with one of their elites and get two decent specs out of it. Just don't see a Granderson for Ellsbury making sense.

      Jake Ordozzi for Soler + Vogelbach would work. If you want Baez might have to deal Smyly or Archer with the above two in as well.


      Tapatalk is being odd, but for the above question I'd be like Montero/Wheeler + Gavin/Nimmo/Stuart + Granderson/De Aza for Ellsbury and Chapman. All depends on Chapman's stats as well, but I feel like that'd be a fair deal. Mets give up some of their depth at SP and give up a meh spec for Chapman and swap a contract with Ells.

        If the Yankees are out of it why not go Granderson + B + B for Ellsbury + Chapman? The Mets probably need a reliever and if you're going to make a trade with the Yankees it could be a possibility in real life they deal Chapman or Miller.

        Chapman did not command a lot from the Yankees to get there, but I think his value will get knocked a bit with them getting rid of Jacoby's contract for Granderson and a pair of prospects.

          Chapman in contract year, Ellsbury contract swap...looks good to me. Yankees would like Wheeler but not for a season of Chapman (less than a season).

              Granderson is bad at baseball, and no team would actively take on his deal.

                What are the Marlins taking for Dee Gordon?
                I was thinking Dustin Pedroia (give him a chance to retire in the hot beaches of Miami) and two B's? Maybe Devers instead of one of the B's?

                  Reason me wanting an upgrade but your saying Granderson is so bad that the Yankees won't give up Ellsbury and his 105 million contract straight up ?!? He did put up good numbers playing in that Tball stadium.

                    His last "good" season in Yankee Pinstripes was 2011. Most players in their mid 30's were significantly better 5 years ago. Neither team would do it because it makes no sense. Sure the Yankees could get rid of money, but they are still taking on some, would be getting far less production, and it isn't like the Yankees are small market and need to eat money. They will get big savings soon when Tex, Beltran, CC, and A-Rod come off the books in the next year or two.

                        Devers is way too much for Dee Gordon, especially after the PEDs stuff (yeah, you can't get popped for performance enhancing drugs in a video game, but if you want realism that is it).

                        Pedroia isn't getting traded.

                            I'm the Mets:

                            I was offered 23yr old CF Rosell Herrera (C-pot/67-ovr) by COL in exchange for 25yr old SP Logan Verrett (C-pot/75-ovr).

                            Think I'm gonna do it since we're loaded at pitching (even then, we still have some pretty good pitching prospects). Additionally, Lagares just broke his leg and will miss the majority of the remainder of this season so I might be forced to bring up Nimmo earlier than expected.

                            Logan Verrett will most likely be promoted and placed right into the Rockies' rotation (one of their guys suffered an injury).

                                I think they are both bad. A 5 and 6 WAR in 3 seasons worth of PA is pretty for what they are both paid. Ellsbury's terrible contract does make him worse value wise
