I have no clue. I don't study other teams prospects. I don't think we are going to get a future star, but seriously how do you not understand how things work?

How good a prospect is is entirely subjective.
Do you believe the reports that additional teams have shown interest in Garcia is false?
Of course. Doesn't mean Garcias value is any higher
So who are the additional starters that were made available in the last 24 hours that offset the increased demand?
Enscheff please stop being an ass for the rest of the day. Thanks.
Lol look, go ahead and predict the better return the Braves are going to get.
You have never, ever, been right on a topic involving player value when you've disagreed with me. Not once.
So let's try again.
How valuable is Garcia now?
Do I sense a "leave the board forever bet coming?"
I would love to, but nobody will step up to one.

There's not many SP's out there actually.
At least none that will cost what Garcia will.
Note, im not saying we'll break apart someones farm but last nights start can only help the return for Garcia.
You made the argument that increased demand does impact price unless additonal supply offsets it.
Then you agreed the demand has increased for Garcia based on believing reports but st star that doesn't necessarily increase Garcia value. Based on your previous comment that would lead me to believe you think the supply has ibcreased.
So who else was made avaliable because if it's nobody else then based on your logic Garcias value has increased.
Of course it is, especially when you want to claim Garcias value has increased. You will argue any prospect the Braves get is better than Bundi. That much is a given haha.

It's mind bottling someone is trying argue increased demand isn't a good thing
Very simple question you keep skirting around...
How much better of a prospect is he going to get in return now that his value has increased?
Excellent straw man. I didn't say the extra demand isn't a good thing. I said it doesn't increase Garcias value.
The Braves likely now have a larger selection of similarly valued prospects to pick from. That's unquestionably a good thing, but still the same value.
Work on your reading comprehension? Maybe? Someday?
I'm not interested in that argument because it's extremely subjective. I'm have a basic economic discussion with you here and I'd like to continue that conversation.
What additional supply was injected into the deadline economy that offsets the increased demand for Garcia?

So his value isn't increased AT ALL by 8 teams wanting him now instead of 1?
Lol. The Braves have more choices of similarly valuable prospects now, but they are all still equally valuable.
Garcias value has not changed.
Now you're getting it! Good job!
