Re: MLB The Show 22 Trade Discussion Thread

Tell me what package you think Washington would accept for Soto.

A: Brendon Rogers, E. Tovar, Drew Romo, Zac Veen = 131.70
Juan Soto, Corbin = 121.90
B: Brendon Rogers, E Tovar and one of Drew Romo/Zac Veen = 83.90/85.90
Juan Soto, Strasburg = 15.90
C: Brendon Rogers, Daza, E Tovar, Drew Romo, Zac Veen = 135.90
Juan Soto = 165.60

Padres gave up 143.00 value for Soto and Bell. Think Washington would rather dump salary and still get good prospects back rather than trade Soto by himself?

IMO, they showed that they had no intention of pairing him up with a bad contract to lower their return, especially considering they were willing to take Hosmer back originally (Though I'm curious if San Diego was going to pay the bulk of his salary, or increase the return?).

I'd probably go C if you changed Daza for Amador (though SD's offer was still better, IMO). If you consider the Padres offer, had Abram's and Gore not exhausted their prospect status, the Nats essentially landed last years 6th and 55th best prospects, and this years 21st and 88th, plus Susana, who has the potential to be a decent long term option for the Nats. Amador would give you that 4th prospect in the top 100 that the Nats essentially got from SD.

Thank you Kinsmen for your reply. Do you think Washington would consider option B since they would be getting rid of a big contract but still getting the prospects? I will switch Daza with Amador for option C.

No problem!

No, I don't think they realistically would. Washington is the type of team that has never been scared to spend money, and showed that they *try* to maximize the value on players they've traded (ie. Trea Turner/Scherzer, and now Soto).

I don't like the Nats, but I do like that they aren't scared to spend money, unlike the GD Marlins who gave away their franchise for a few prospect packages that (for the most part) haven't worked out.

Re: MLB The Show 22 Trade Discussion Thread

Thinking about doing a Pirates Franchise. I'd like to trade for Soto with the storyline of him following in the footsteps of Willie Stargell and Roberto Clemente. Would Pittsburgh have enough to [realistically] offer? I'd prefer not to give up Reynolds, if possible.

Thanks in advance.

I'm sure if you wanted to give them Oneil Cruz, Mitch Keller, Henry Davis, Quinn Priester, and Liover Peguero or Nick Gonzales you would get their attention

Re: MLB The Show 22 Trade Discussion Thread

So I'm in the middle of June with my 30-team franchise, and am thinking about BIG trades I could make for other teams either at the deadline or in the offseason. The moves I'm thinking about revolve around the Angels.

What would the Othani and Trout get in separate trades? I can come up with four teams that would have both the prospect capital and wallet to afford either of them, and that's the Yankees, Dodgers, Padres, and the Cardinals (they nearly had Stanton). In my franchise, the Nationals are in first place so Soto wouldn't go anywhere until at least the offseason if at all.

I just don't know which team to send them to. While it doesn't seem realistic for the Angels to trade them, they did entertain offers at this years deadline, and people floated the idea of dealing Trout as well.

What do you guys think? The Angels could build a whole new roster with the returns they get for them.

I came up with some preliminary trades for the most likely outcomes...

Yankees Receive: Mike Trout

Angels Receive: Aaron Hicks, Gleyber Torres, Jasson Dominguez, Oswald Peraza




Dodgers Receive: Shohei Ohtani

Angels Receive: Diego Cartaya, Bobby Miller, Michael Busch, Andy Pages

Re: MLB The Show 22 Trade Discussion Thread

Thats still 2 or 3 prospects light, IMO.

.. I don't see a scenario where they move Trout for a few years. If he was moved, it would be for more than the Nats got for Soto.

Re: MLB The Show 22 Trade Discussion Thread

These were just to start, and I'm also taking into account Trout's contract and his value which is -8.6. The Marlins only got the Yankees #28 prospect plus Starlin Castro and a relative unknown shortstop at the time for Stanton, who had a very similar contract situation. I personally don't care what the Yankees give up as I'm the Red Sox, I'm just trying to keep at as realistic as possible, so if I need to to add more prospects, so be it.

Re: MLB The Show 22 Trade Discussion Thread

Not sure what thread to post in, but would it be acceptable to move Stanton to 1B (could keep LF/RF as secondary) and then try to trade him at the deadline? I don't know if any team would realistically want to take on that contract, but just curious. Thx in advance.

There's no way off that contract except for maybe taking a slightly better one on and attaching prospects, but even that is far fetched. For example, swapping Stanton for Pat Corbin would still require the Yank's Top Prospect SS Anthony Volpe to be even.

Fer gawds sakes SDS, give me the ability to retain salary!!!

Re: MLB The Show 22 Trade Discussion Thread

Off-season of year 1, using the Padres.

This is more of a money question. Would the Angels trade Ohtani straight up for Tatis? We can use the narrative of Ohtani is a FA after the year and will not re-sign. This gives LAA the next face of their franchise who is under control for 12 more years. Yes you can say The Angels could just give Tatis money to Ohtani, but lets say he's told them he's out and wants to go to a contender.

Would this work?

Padre perspective. (In my franchise universe) The organization is tired of Tatis' antics and immaturity and will want to move him and use the money to give to Soto and make him the new face with Manny.

Baseball trade values has 178.30 going to LAA and only 80.4 going back to SD. Of course Ohtani's may be lowered since i've advanced a year and he would be a rental. Tatis may also go down based on suspension.

Yu Darvish and Blake Snell are both FA after the year which opens a lot of money to offer to Shohei.

Re: MLB The Show 22 Trade Discussion Thread

I have a dilemma. I want to start a new franchise with the post trade deadline rosters. The choices are down to the Braves or Brewers. I like the Braves cause using Harris and Strider would be exciting. But I am leaning towards the Brewers cause I want to play in the NL Central. I played a whole season with the Braves last year as well. So wanting something different. But I would love to trade for Strider and Harris. But not sure how realistic that would be. I know it is my franchise and I want to make it fun for me. But if it’s going to be a unrealistic trade, I will feel like it’s cheating. The numbers match up on the trade simulator.

Brewers trade
Corbin Burnes 95.9
Freddy Peralta 66.9

Total: 162.80

Braves trade
Ian Anderson 19.4
Vaughan Grissom 20.1
Michael Harris 87.6
Spencer Strider 36.5

Total: 163.60

Braves would be another ace and a good pitcher in Peralta. But I feel the Braves wouldn’t trade their top OF prospect. I could also throw in Tyrone Taylor for them.

What are your thoughts?

I think you're losing pretty significantly on that deal, but giver if you want? You have a replacement SS?

What else would Anaheim have to send? I was thinking if they take on the entirety of the contract it would even out. Have they given up on Addell? Could he be included. I could always roll with Kim at SS or Cronenworth. I resigned Drury so he could be my 2B.

Re: MLB The Show 22 Trade Discussion Thread

What does anyone think a trade of Sean Murphy to White Sox would look like? On the trade simulator a combination of Garrett Chrochet, Michael Kopech,and Oscar Colas got the Sox close with a combined value of 46.8 and Murphy a value of 47.5. However I feel like this would be a massive overpay but curious what anyone else thinks?
