I had thought Bo had a 50/50 shot at getting traded until he came out saying he wanted an extension. With how well the jays have hit since the deadline adding a Bo bounce back is like signing a big bat, so they can focus more on the bullpen in free agency
Roman Anthony feels really expendable for the Red Sox. Duran is the best real CF in the sport rn. Why not capitalize on that and move your top CF prospect to get maybe the best true talent arm in baseball today in Crochet
Tbh Id be kind of annoyed if the Cardinals traded for Robert is the ceiling super high with him absolutely I wont argue that but youd have a hard time convicing me that hes a good addition when he legit can never stay on the fucking field
I would love to see the Pirates go all in. They could offer Ke'Bryan Hayes, Mitch Keller, Braxton Ashcraft and Termarr Johnson to the White Sox for Crochet and Robert. That would give them a rotation of Skenes, Crochet, Jones, Chandler and Falter by June. It would also give them an outfield of Robert, Reynolds and Cruz. There would still be some holes on the IF, but that team would be far better than the 202r edition.
The Pirates do not need Crochet, at all. And Luis Robert given his injuries and lack of production this year, that trade would cause a riot. I'd rather just sign Joc Pederson as a free agent than trade for Robert and his .660 OPS
@john670 which is why I have Hayes and Keller in my trade scenario. It's not going to happen, but cost-wise it would be net zero and it would be an increase in talent.
