    Probably not. Marquez has a ton of value. You'd probably have to start with Kyle Tucker or Yordan Alvarez and add in elite pitching prospects.

      Re: Official MLB 20 the Show Trade Discussion Thread

      new to this forum (how did I just find this??) and was messing with the formula in the OP, but had a question that I didn't see an answer to in my thread search (thread is too long to comb through). Is there a way when using the OP formula to account for young guys? For example, say I have Mondesi at the start of a new franchise and I wanted to trade him for whatever reason (i don't actually but it popped in my head). Should I account for the fact that he's only 24 and still has a ways to go developmentally (hopefully)? Because his surplus value is around $17M which is a 76-100 prospect.

      Basically, is the formula on OP a trade calculator for all trades or ones where you're selling and are giving up guys with 1-2 years of control left? I feel stupid asking this but I'm semi-confused and was hoping for some clarification.

      Thanks!

        You don't really need to worry too much about it...the formula works best from day 1. The part where you multiply by the years of control left is what will boost their value at the end of the day.

        The $17ish mil actually makes sense for a day 1 franchise with Mondesi. His value now, according to baseballtradevalues.com is around $5.7 mil given his mediocre season, the 0.9 WAR that he put up, and the year of service time that was burned.

          I am reaching the end of May in a Braves franchise and I am 2 games back from the first-place Nationals. Our pitching staff is struggling and only lasting about 5 innings. Our bullpen has been great but it is getting taxed with the extra usage. Hamels can get to the 7th a couple of games to give them a break. So we are looking for a veteran SP. The Rangers are in last place but Kluber has been pitching awesome with a 2.80 ERA. What would the Braves need to give up for Kluber who is a free agent at the end of the year?

            Playing as the Nationals what is a realistic trade package for Contreras of the Cubs? Robles not included...

              How is Ryu rated only 82 in this game? He makes for an excellent trade snipe.

                Hey guys, been awhile since I been in the trade forum haha. So here's the deal.

                I started a Minnesota Sports Universe (Wild/United FC/T-Wolves/Twins/Vikings), I been teasing and working up a Benintendi trade all through 2021 Spring.

                Now finally have money situated and a trade CPU will take as not doing 30-Team this go around. Breaks down like this.

                Minnesota gets:
                OF Andrew Benintendi

                Boston gets:
                RP Taylor Rogers
                SP Randy Dobnak
                OF Gabriel Maciel

                Thoughts?

                  I think you have to give a little more background. What do both teams' outfields and bullpens look like, what are the recent stats for the players involved?

                    Well normally I would, however like I said it's just 2021 with current rosters. So what the rosters are now is what they are.

                    And like I said I been doing the storyline all through Spring Training and we're only 5 games into the season so stats really aren't relevant.

                      I bet if the trade for Arenado was proposed on this thread it would have been laughed at hysterically.

                          Interestingly enough, according to baseballtradevalues.com, the Cards actually overpaid slightly for him.

                            The Rockies definitely made an interesting trade. But yeah anyone can feel free to ignore us on this thread. Not entirely sure how much I'll participate going forward.

                              Was wondering what Grichuks Trade value might be and what teams might be willing to trade a SP for him?
