Waiting for OSFM rosters to start a franchise but figured I'd start getting ideas on trades now. I am going to play as the White Sox. I want a big left handed bat in the middle of the order and want to make the most realistic moves as possible. What are some good ideas? I was thinking CarGo but idk what a fair offer would be.

I think a package around Fulmer or Anderson would be too much or not realistic, honestly. After the Frazier trade, there's not a lot there to work with. Probably some guys like Spencer Adams, Jordan Guerrero, Tyler Danish involved in any deal.. I don't know.

White Sox buying is a bad situation to be in with that system.

I would like to trade Lucroy to the Rangers, a scenario I kept on hearing during the offseason. I am definitely willing to package him with some other players like Smith or Peralta. I kept on hearing scenarios like Brison, Tate, Jurado, Ortiz, etc. What do you guys think? Thanks!

Lucroy could probably net you either Brinson + Tate + maybe a low level lottery type of guy, or Brinson + Ortiz + Jurado.

Yeah I'd basically be trading anyone not named Fulmer or Anderson. Also factor in CarGo's contract (which won't be accurate in game but still bigger). Another one I though of was a rental of Josh Reddick for one year. I was thinking something along the lines of Danish/Guerrero, May/Engel, and Carlos Sanchez?

maybe not realistic but still looking fo fair.... im the rockies and thinking about a base of blackmon and mcmahon for carassco? what else should i add?

So I need to do something with the Indians BP.

How can I get 2 of

Brian Matusz
Marcos Mateo
Kevin Quackenbush
Yimi Garcia
Tyler Clippard
Andrew Chafin
Tony Cigrani
Neil Ramirez
Mike Dunn
Tony Sipp
Keone Kela
Charlie Furbush
Luke Hochevar
Brett Cecil

How hard is it to trade for RP in general ?

You should be fine. I really like Quackenbush as a right now option, and Andrew Chafin is young, controllable, and could probably make a spot start. Shouldn't be hard to trade for either of them, both are definitely realistic, just flip a guy with a 2nd division ceiling, I'd think.

Also, Randall Delgado could be worth a look.

What type of a package would it take to get Ryan Goins? Obviously not that significant as I'm a Jays fan. Gonna do a Twins franchise, really like some of their pieces and none of the NL teams are really speaking to me with Pollack out for the year as the D'Backs were one of the only ones I liked.

I want to improve team defense because Minny is really lacking. With mediocre pitching I'd like to build the pen, but I'll be back asking about that. Goins would serve as essentially an offseason trade. I'd also consider Hechavarria, Ahmed, Galvis, Mercer or Kike Hernandez. But I think they'd be too expensive.

I'd assume, as a Jays fan, that the Jays would at least want a utility guy to cover for Goins in addition to a prospect. So I'd like to include Eduardo Nunez as part of the package.

Thanks for doing my research for me! Good guys to target for the twins.

Jays wouldn't need anything back, Darwin Barney is the same guy basically. As a Jays fan I've been praying for Goins for Trevor May, but don't rip yourself off. Maybe Tyler Duffey?
