    Re: MLB 18 The Show Trade Discussion

    Also wondering what kind of package the Jays would have to give to the cubs for La Stella as he is blocked all over the place and Ive always liked him.

    Something like Pentecost, Maese or pannone get it done? or a combo of?

      Yeah. I would say one of Maese, Pannone or even Harris would work and throw in a guy like Sam Moll as well.

        Re: MLB 18 The Show Trade Discussion

        I'm in a weird position in my Franchise. I've simmed to the All-Star break so I could draft and prepare for trades with my Rangers. I was expecting a revamp but for some strange reason, we're 60-40 on July 23rd. We lead the division by five games, which seriously kills my thought process on trading away pieces. Instead, I'm looking to see what I can pull back as I might as well try and make a run here. I'm looking to beef up the rotation and add an outfielder.

        I'm looking at these deals:

        TEX REC: Chris Archer
        TAM REC: Leodys Taveras | Yohander Mendez | Christopher Seise

        TEX REC: Randal Grichuk
        TOR REC: Drew Robinson | Pedro Gonzalez | Michael Matuella

        How off am I?

        I'm also looking to shore up a few other contending teams as well. I'm thinking of dealing Realmuto to Minnesota, Donaldson to Toronto, Machado to St. Louis and Adam Jones to San Francisco. I know we already have a deal for Machado and Donaldson but I want to make sure they're good (I'm altering a bit). I'm also thinking now might be the right time to to swing a deal for Fulmer. I have this:

        MIN REC: JT Realmuto
        MIA REC: Nick Gordon | Alex Kirilloff | Brusdar Graterol

        SF REC: Adam Jones
        BAL REC: Garrett Williams | Dylan Davis

        STL REC: Manny Machado
        BAL REC: Jedd Gyorko | Jack Flaherty | Tyler O'Neill

        NYY REC: Josh Donaldson
        TOR REC: Justus Sheffield | Chance Adams

        PHI REC: Michael Fulmer | Alex Wilson
        DET REC: Vince Velasquez | JP Crawford | Sixto Sanchez | Mickey Moniak | Arquimedes Gamboa

          Just want someone to confirm if this trade is ok.

          Angels acquire: Brandon Belt
          Giants acquire: Jahmai Jones, Griffin Canning

          So I saw the Justin Bour trade to the angels in the log. It has Maitan and Canning going to Miami. I want to keep Maitan but I’m willing to give Jones up. They have the same value so that should ok right? I like Bour but I need someone with better fielding. Also in the log, Bour has a value of 38 Mil and Belt has a value of 39 Mil. Their values are pretty much equal so this trade should be ok?

          Thanks

          Edit- Should I throw in Chris carter because losing belt will mean the giants don’t really have a 1st baseman anymore?

            Value wise I suppose so, but what position are the Giants in? Are they out of it? Cause if they're not I don't see this being a move they make.

              Exactly this. San Francisco just made moves for McCutchen and Longoria so they don’t seem to be sellers. Miami is willing to move their pieces. Just because values match up, doesn’t mean trades do.

                Yeah I haven’t really thought that through very well. I really like Belt due to his fielding but Bour will probably be better offensively. Is Jahmai Jones and Canning alright for Bour?

                Last thing for Belt- Is there any thing that would work for me to be able to get him? What if I added a controllable rotation piece? Someone like Tyler Skaggs or Matt Shoemaker? I could throw in Chris Carter who had good success in the NL with the brewers to fill the gap in at 1st baseman and add power for them. I don’t know I might be getting desperate at this point

                I’ll probably just go with the easier trade and get Bour.

                Thank you both for your thoughts

                  Franchise with the White Sox, looking to upgrade my CF and LF. Who is somebody we could land with the roster they have now. Thanks!

                    article on possible Realmuto trades, any thoughts on these? Nats one looks clean

                    Ever since J.T. Realmuto has come off the DL, he has been mashing baseballs for the Marlins. With the Marlins are currently sitting at 7-17.

                      Gonna start my 2nd chise up with the Braves when Acuna is actually made and put into a OSFM (probably next week).

                      Anyway what are the odds the Cubs dump off Heyward in a pre-season trade, straight up for Nick Markakis?

                        I personally don't have an issue with this, depending on how the Cubs are doing over the course of the season and what Heyward's stats look like. If they're competing and Heyward is raking, they may not want to move on despite the nice salary dump. Are you doing 30 Team Control? If so, I'd probably have them be in the market for an outfield replacement if you do this deal as I doubt they would want Markakis as that 3rd guy. He's fine as a 4th.

                            Check the log, there are a few different options on there including guys like Adam Jones, Delino DeShields Jr, Kyle Schwarber, etc.

                                I wanna get rid of Marte even though he has a .343avg and also Chad Kuhl.
