    One small fact to add to the mix. Remember that Bum can't be traded to the Braves without his permission. That is spelled permi$$ion. Braves don't need to be backed into a corner.
    Also Stroman (and Giles) are under control until 2021.

    The big thing about Stroman is his length in games. He can give you the full 9 often.

    According to Spotrac Stroman is just controlled through 2020.

    Yeah. Bumgardner put most of the perceived contenders on his no trade list which pretty much guarantees he controls where he gets traded to.

    This guy did break the Machado signing and the Kawhi signing. I think he's broke couple other things as well. He has at least some credibility.

    I've always said this about rebuilding teams, but they still take on MLB value all the time anyway. I don't get it, but it wouldn't surprise me.

    Would wait for a more reliable source, but would be a nice pickup.

    Do wonder what else would be involved.

    Yeah and he's gonna want to leverage that into an extension. I want zero part of that.

    Its actually funny because I've seen a ton a fans on reddit and twitter saying that they will actually pay MORE for Bumgarner as long as we give him an extension. So silly.

    I mean, he has a fairly substantial following and he's had several accounts vouch for him on his behalf. That doesn't automatically mean that he's credible, but I think it gives him more credence than simply having a blue check mark or something.

    I’ve always thought if we acquire a starting pitcher...it will be Stroman.
