      JJ is not worth Lindor or Taillon. Maybe in his Cy young days but those were long ago. Plus, he's a rental so that further lessens his value

        Looking for Fair and realistic trade...

        Any thoughts about Mark Buerhle for Mark Trumbo? Would I need to give LAA a prospect or MLB to even it up? ( Keeping in mind that Buerhle is no longer in my starting rotation).
        Also like the idea of sending Buerhle back to the White Sox for a prospect or 2. Don't know the Chicago farm to well. Do they have any untouchables?

          No to Chicago but I really like the LA idea, fills a need for both even if all players involved kinda blow lol.

            Can we shut down this Tallion nonsense please? He isn't going anywhere for JJ...not unless the Pirates GM is a moron and likes being taken advantage of in trades.

              He does. but point taken

              And you didn't really need to add in that "nonsense" part imo

                That's fair... any thoughts on a separate trade for Ryan Jackson?

                EDIT: Ok, in the end, I traded Jackson and Browning back to the Cards for RP Lee Stoppelman.. so I ultimately traded Morales, Aumont and Linares for Rosenthal and Stoppelman

                  Not a fan of Trumbo either but he's a real upgrade over Mark DeRosa. Do you think LAA would make this trade? Do I need to add anything to even things out?

                    While I know that it might not be the most realistic trade, I know the Cardinals need a shortstop so would Starlin Castro and maybe a high B be good enough for Tavares plus Trevor Rosenthal or Matt Adams?

                      The Cards really value Taveres.. I can maybe see Castro+ mid B to realistically get Taveres but you won't get Rosenthal or Adams along with it

                        No, because Castro + High B isn't worth Tavares alone imo.

                        Missed this but that's 2-4 now I think so yeah. Granted, JJ's been quite good the past while aside from last first half, but I agree with the rental part. I was just basing mine off the Grienke package but where I went wrong was my Segura/Lindor comparison. I'm high on Segura so it kinda strayed my view.

                          I've got a high 80s Brian Wilson and a high 70s Kyle Lohse in my second season. What could I be looking to get back in a package deal with these two vets? (As in prospect grades)

                            Cubs fan here, so take this with a grain of salt, but Starlin Castro is absolutely worth Oscar Taveras and then some. IMO, Castro might be the best SS in baseball 2-3 years from now. The guy's a hitting machine who will probably end up in the 20-25 HR range, while threatening .300+ every season. He can also steal 25 bases. So, we've got a 25/25 potential SS...and that's not worth a top prospect? Seems like you could have your pick of the litter for a guy like that.

                            Throw in his youth (22), his accomplishments (ROY votes, hits champ already), the positional adjustment, and the fact that the error numbers don't really tell the story of how much his defense is improving. Go ahead and try to find a player (not named Robin Yount) faster to 500 hits than Castro.

                            And if you don't believe me, look at the spreadsheet. Castro is mid A + high B + high B. Taveras is what an A? So, we're still looking for 2 B's to send to the Cubs...

                            Now where this trade breaks down is with realism. There isn't any realism. The Cubs and Cards aren't trading, even on a minor deal, and Castro would NEVER EVER EVER be sent to St. Louis.

                            TOTALLY DIFFERENT SUBJECT..

                            What's with the couple of guys who don't participate at all in this thread to help/contribute, but only come out of the woodwork to slam potential deals and tell people how unrealistic/stupid they are? I don't get that. There can be some of that, but if that's 100% of your contribution here, you're basically being a d!ck and needn't spend time here. And if you don't want to be a d!ck about it, try at least counter-proposing something so the person has something to work with or at least logically explaining your reasoning...not just prospect X would NOT be traded for player X...nuff said. This thread, in my opinion, is about feedback. Remember, not every poster has exhaustive knowledge of every player in the game. And I think the thread creator mentioned CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM. It's not to show off how smart or more into realism you think you are. /end rant

                                I am assuming that realism is not important here?

                                You could also look into a Pujols/CarGo swap as the main component of such a deal.
