2018 Offseason And Targets

[weso1]

I took AA's comments today to mean that the team we're trading with is scouting a group of prospects that AA has offered and will choose amongst that pool of prospects.

Another perspective on the AA 70% comment . . .

If they are %70 on a deal and the major pieces are agreed on the the seconadary pieces shouldn’t let the deal fall apart. Maybe it’ll be done by the end of the week. Any guesses to see who gets the closest?

 

[bravesfanMatt]

Putting my bet on Mitch. But I will be wrong.

 

[Hudson2]

I’m gonna say JTR. There’s been so much smoke there that I think the Marlins are finally gonna pull the trigger. And with Mish coming out and talking about all of it AA told them to tighten it up on their end and not leak anything else. I think we will get a bullpen arm back in the deal Also.

 

[Hulavol]

I’m gonna guess Haniger and JTR.....

 

[TheRunningAgent]

I’m gonna say it’s nobody we’ve discussed at any length.

 

[Hudson2]

We know they wanna add a TOR starter so it could be Mad Bum

This would be my guest as well.

I’m sticking with my Travis Shaw random prediction

I suppose anything is plausible at this point, but I just don't see this- at all. Kluber on the other hand....

 

[Oklahomabrave]

I’m gunna guess a trade with the reds

 

[Hudson2]

Phillies are wanting to add Harper, Keuchel, and Kimbrel that’s nuts but could realistically happen.

 

[Freshmaker]

AA going to fire up the fanbase by signing Granderson

If they are serious about Trout, it’s hard to believe they would do all three of those.

They probably have the money to do all of it.

Or they could just sign Bartolo Colon if they want a TOR starter.

Tidbit from Rosenthal today in The Athletic:

I’ve been arguing this for a couple months.

Tons of roastbeef?

 

[zbhargrove]

Well MadBum isn't a TOR at this point... so unless he's cheap I hope not

 

[Hudson2]

It just screams big trade to me bc secondary pieces don’t usually hold stuff up for long.
