Burrows is the last guy I see from Detroit on the Top 100 and he's a good 5-6 places ahead of Stewart on Detroit's prospect list. How about a straight up swap for Kody Eaves?

    Any thoughts on a home for DeLino or Calhoun? Neither guy really fits in to how I like to build my teams.
    I was using the new Fangraphs update. Odor should be a good lotto ticket. And I think we mentioned some teams that can use OF help CLE, SF, etc. The LAD match just didn't make sense because you were making a CF for CF swap but getting back the much better player.

      Sure, I completely understand. I'll take a look at some more options for DeLino and Calhoun. Jackson is performing well in SF but Zimmer is performing very poorly in Cleveland so that is an option.

        Looking to move Raisel Iglesias to the Dodgers. In my franchise they look like they need some help getting to Kenley. I have his surplus around $50 mil (didn't know what his 2021 arb numbers would look like).

            Let us know teams with bad CF play and we can work from there. And Calhoun needs to go to an AL team since his defense is so poor

              I've tiered teams to make this a bit easier:
              D. DeShields - .282AVG|.345OBP|.986FLD

              Winning W/CF Need:
              CLEVELAND | (56-45) | B. Zimmer - .209AVG|.290OBP|.987FLD
              NEW YORK | (63-40) | A. Hicks - .238AVG|.328OBP|.984FLD

              Competing W/CF Need:
              LOS ANGELES | (56-47) | C. Taylor - .242AVG|.328OBP|.974FLD
              OAKLAND | (57-47) | D. Fowler - .236AVG|.289OBP|.978FLD

              Non-Competing W/CF Need:
              CHICAGO | (41-63) | T. Thompson - .242AVG|.339OBP|.959FLD
              DETROIT | (34-70) | L. Martin - .176AVG|.228OBP|.983FLD

              Looking for potential landing spots for Calhoun, this is what I came up with:
              Baltimore
              Chicago (AL)
              Cleveland
              Detroit
              Kansas City
              Oakland
              Seattle
              Tampa Bay
              Toronto

              I italicized each of the teams that are currently out of competition and may not be as likely to move prospects for a prospect.

                Re: MLB 18 The Show Trade Discussion

                What would a Mike Moustakas to the Braves (me) trade look like in mid June?

                Context: Braves are in a tight NL East race as well as wild card. Kansas City is pretty much out of the Central and wildcard already.

                  Someone can correct me if I'm over-estimating here but I'm thinking something like the below may work:

                  KC REC: Cristian Pache | Wes Parsons
                  ATL REC: Mike Moustakas

                    Depends on which prospect list you like. Fangraphs has Pache at 28. MLB pipeline has him at not even a top 100 guy. So it depends. I THINK the Braves would be more inclined to move one of a group of pitchers like Wentz, Muller, Fried plus a lotto ticket than move their CF of the future. But I want to give the caveat I'm a Braves fan and may not be completely neutral on this

                      I was going to say something along the lines of Pache + one of their 24-26 year old AAAA pitchers, so IMO it works fine.

                        TEX REC: Clint Frazier | Josh Rogers

                          Look at it through Brian Cashman's eyes. Do you think 4 seasons of DeShields will actually be more valuable than 6 seasons of Frazier? If you aren't sure, then the trade doesn't make sense for the Yankees. I'm not trying to be overly critical but it seems more realistic the Yankees trade Frazier for a SP not another OF option when the team has Judge, Stanton, Gardner, Ellsbury & Hicks

                            I get that perspective. I also look at it from the sense of, with your window, does four years of DeShields give you a greater chance at winning Championships than 6 years of Frazier. That is where I counteract a bit. That said, I can find a new trade partner, I'm just not overly high on the market.

                              I think I'm having trouble separating real like DDJ from the version in your game. Hes just not a CF a team wanting to win a championship would use and that's why I keep saying the return is high. I did the surplus math and I keep getting $50 in value before taking away salaries which will pretty much all be arbitration salaries going forward. So it seems like he might be worth $25 to 30.

                                You're pretty dead on. We've got 28.7M on him in the log. I've been looking at a 75-100 guy to headline a deal. But most of those guys belong to teams that don't need a Centerfielder or wouldn't be trading for a guy like DeShields Jr. It's been a tough connection. I haven't even gotten to Calhoun yet which should be a solid 3-4x harder to place.
