2025 Trade Deadline Thread

Is Walcott even close? Would he be a 2026 helper... if this was even true.

He's 19 and has almost 400 PAs in AA. I imagine someone like Allen would keep the position warm until he was ready in 2026.

While don't usually trade guys like him, a team with Seager locked in at SS would be the type of team who could, and a controllable star catcher who is free in 2025 is the type of MLB asset you'd want for a prospect like him.

yeah, I think Murph and Ozuna (both free this year) would be a nice return for him.. probably need Texas to throw in some lottery ticket for the cash the Braves would be sending.
 
Texas is currently:

#23 in C WAR, and somehow don't even show up on the leaderboard for DH.

Being able to use a prospect completely blocked by a cornerstone like Seager to fix both positions for free in 2025, and to control the C for even longer, has to be appealing.

You're overthinking it because it originated from a troll account
 
The Diamondbacks are doing this right. Don’t hate that, as they’re my current proximity-based second team.
 
AA was t gonna give Ozuna away bc he don't have to. If he wasn't offered anything while still paying their salary then hold firm.

Why wouldn’t you give him away for nothing. It literally doesn’t matter to this team. He is better served playing for a contender and the Braves are better served playing kids who will help the team next year and beyond

It doesn't serve us him being on a contender. Not unless we get something back which we will never know what went on. People still come to the stadium to see him and he's a good teammate from all reports and we aren't strapped for cash so we don't have to trade him if we weren't gonna get any value back.
