The Brewers do have a plethora of tantalizing OF options in the Minors. Apparently they were talking Ian Kinsler + Justin Wilson with Detroit. I wonder what the Braves could get if they offered Garcia, Phillips, and a BP arm (JJ) -- with substantial salary relief.
I'd love Brinson. Wonder what that would take to happen.
All this is really unanswerable, that's why. At the deadline, for a contending team to fill two positions of need with at least decent options, including the contender's premium...I mean, I could see them being willing to part with something like Brett Phillips or Trent Clark.
You realize the 2 guys you just named are both FV 45 guys, and are almost exactly as valuable as Cordell, right?
I picked Cordell from that tier of OFers because he hits RHed, can play CF, is ready now, and isn't yet on their MLB roster.
Garcia's value is pretty widely considered (except around here) to be a FV 40 guy if the team takes his whole contract, or a FV 45 guy is the Braves eat his contract.

All the money the Dodgers have and have spent and they still may need to pony up a ton to get Darvish. It's not easy to just throw money at pitching and it's not fun to throw prospects at it.
Trent Clark, the guy posting a .771 OPS in A+ and isn't a lock to stay in CF?
Brett Phillips, who according to FG, "has the chance to be the larger half of a platoon in right field, but that the swing-and-miss prevents him from profiling as a true everyday player"?
That's better than Cordell? I think Cordell is what posters around here think DPete is...if DPete could play CF.

So apparently Seattle is 'all in' and interested in Gray/controllable starters.
Question: would any of y'all move Teheran in a deal for Kyle Lewis?

I like both more than Cordell. I don't know why that is hard to believe. Even Longenhagen likes Clark more. And I get that you believe Longenhagen is the best prospect guy out there, and I don't know that I would argue with that, but I don't know why you act as though he's the only guy worth mentioning or that his values are set in stone and the exact value of that particular prospect.
All of these lists are simply the opinion of one person.
Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...
Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?
