MLB 18 The Show Trade Discussion

Plan on running with the braves. Great farm system with a decent lineup. Thinking of trading for domingo santana. Seems legit because of the brewers logjam in the outfield. What do y’all think id have to give up to get him. Hopefully something with markakis to keep from creating a logjam of my own. Needed a righty compliment to freeman that seems somewhat realistic.

I know this isn't how it's usually approached, but Pomeranz is a guy I would consider adding in a Pirates franchise. Take a look at the Pirates and see who, if anyone, interests you.

Why would the Brewers want Markakis if they are trying to get rid of a log-jam like you said? Because you want to undo a potential one for you? Kind of interesting thinking! Definitely a deal to be worked out, but the Brewers will want a MLB ready arm, like Teheran for example.

Profar is a rough one to evaluate. Rangers seem to be wanting to be in the mix of things, and Profar doesn't have a home on this team anymore.

Profar for Ryu.

Archer is worth about a $38 million value.

Pomeranz to any team in the market for SP would work. He is pretty valuable, but won't net you anything amazing... definitely not getting an Espinoza back.

JBJ is basically the same to any team needing an outfielder.

If you're looking for high ceiling arms I would tune back your hopes a bit. Both these guys would probably bring you back 2 B's and a C potentials in the end.

But if I don't land a significant haul with solid building blocks, I'll just hope he can be productive until he's 35 so I can still use him.

Freeman is worth around $114 million then take away what he is owed and then it drops him to about ~$50 million valued.

That would get you two prospects in the top 51-100 rankings and a lotto ticket. Solid package.

Verdugo/Alvarez + Will Smith + lotto ticket.

I'm doing the Pirates and i'm looking to trade Freese, Polanco, maybe Marte/Cervelli. What could I get in return for these players?

Going to do a Braves franchise, since I love a re-building/prospects project.

Thinking of acquiring Jurickson Profar from Texas, since I have always been a fan of his, despite him not living up to his potential to date.

What would you think a fair deal from Atlanta's side would be for Profar? Going to try and resurrect his career in Atlanta, much like Tim Beckham in Baltimore.

Starting franchise as the yankees. Would love to trade elsbury and add a pitcher but nobody want elsbury. Other than that I dont have to many moves to make.

I want to do one with the Mets what path you would take if you had them?

What would the cards have to give up to get Donaldson?
