Trade one. Taveras and Seise should probably be worth more, but they are just young. Neither are on the top 100 yet, but both have value. I think that deal works out fine.

Giants would likely not deal Dereck, yet. No reason to. You are buying low on him. His first year was solid, and his second year was...bad. Any different way I do his calculation it comes out negative, and he isn't a negative player. I'll go ahead and veto any D-Rod deals.

As for the first trade, thank you bud. On the second, that is Pudge's son you're telling me I can't have! Lol. I thought about including Garcia instead of Hernandez. Younger, higher upside and from California. But I do agree that buying Rodriguez might be buying too low this year.

Wow, I never knew that was his son! TIL

Speaking of Joey Gallo, is it at all possible to get Joey Gallo and Willie Calhoun to the white sox, preferably with either Encarnacion or Abreu as part of the package?

1. Yes it is possible.

2. Rangers wouldn't want either of those guys in a return deal.

I'm a bias Rangers fan who genuinely can't see Texas dealing Gallo. With that said, if they did, it would have to be for a haul. He's the face of our team currently and he's dearly, dearly loved by our fans. I personally don't like the White Sox as a trade partner. If I were constructing a trade, as a bias Ranger fan, this is likely what it would look like:

CWS Receives:
Joey Gallo
Danny Santana

TEX Receives:
Andrew Vaughn
Nick Madrigal
Daniel Palka

I'm likely being told this is an overpay but any team swinging a deal for Gallo is going to overpay. He's the biggest star Texas has had since Hamilton. That is a lot for a team with a new stadium that needs filled seats. In this deal, Chicago gets Gallo to play RF, completing one of the scariest OF in baseball and Santana who can serve as a 4th Outfielder and a super-utility guy for the team. Texas fills the void at first with Vaughn who would likely debut for Texas the following year. They also get a surefire replacement for Odor in Madrigal who would very well debut before season's end. Palka serves as an additional Major League piece that can fill the gap in the OF that Gallo's absence would leave.

Just going to start with this is a heavy bias you have, lol.

Madrigal in my mind is already better than Gallo and he hasn't even debuted yet.

Since there’s already been a Arenado trade to the Rangers. How about what it would take to get Kris Bryant to Texas?
