Re: Official MLB 19 the Show Trade Discussion

I am the Blue Jays and looking to move Pillar. I saw the Giants had interest and match up on paper. What sort of package could I get in return?

I have him pretty valuable at $107million. which is around two A prospects and a throw in.

Very similar for me as well. Guy is super valuable.

Yea, I know he is very valuable. Don’t know if he would fetch two As in real life. I do like Chris Shaw though and could maybe take a decent SP prospect as well?

You guys mind showing your work on this one? My rough calculations put Pillar at roughly 15M in surplus over his final two years of control using bWAR. In real life, I couldn’t see Pillar getting anything more than a lotto ticket and IFA $.

I say this as a Jays fan that would love to get two top-100 prospects for Pillar, but no way I see it actually happening.

What could someone get for packaging Schwarber, Happ, and Russell?

Did it again. I have him roughly at $36.6 million in surplus. Must've looked at last years surplus!

(2.5x6)+(3x3)+(3.5x1)

27.5

2.8x9x2

50.4 - 5.8 - 8

36.6

Yea this was my thought as well, but the formulas value him a lot. Hence why I’m torn to trade him. Don’t want to accept a lotto ticket if I can get more!

That makes more sense. So what type of prospect can I pry from the Giants? What range of prospect would be realistic for me to look?

Giants are rebuilding. I don’t see them wanting him

According to MLBTR, the Giants and Jays are actively discussing trade scenarios involving Pillar so they must have interest.

Sup guys, love this thread every year. Going into my Red Sox franchise who are some realistic targets to go after as far as getting a left hander in the bullpen?

I moved him for Sandro Fabian, Ryan Howard and a AAAA type pitcher (can't remember who, but they were essentially a lotto ticket).

I didn't want to use the $36-ish mil surplus on him because a)his defense declined last year, and b)he's always been a league average or worse offensive player.

Dont really recommend this as that's the whole point this thread is here...

And for up above with the Red Sox quest for a left handed reliever.

Brian Duensing was released by the Cubs, no prospects just cash for him.

Might be able to pry Will Smith from the Giants.

Not really thinking of any other teams that have decent options that would be available this early on in the season...I'll keep thinking!

Thanks! I’ll have a look when I get home. I was thinking a 45 FV batter + 45 FV pitcher (= 40 mil of surplus) and I would add a lotto ticket on my end. Does that fit the 36 M value?
