2026 : Around the League

Tigers should tank without Mize and Skubal. Twins should tank harder without Ryan. Astros look screwed without Correa. Giants are a hot mess. Mets are a dumpster fire. And Angels are still bad. That's the likely sellers so far. They collectively don't have a lot to sell. Peralta and Robbie Ray may be the best starters available. I dont see the Mets helping us so that limits our options there. Byron Buxton imo is going to be the real prize. 30 HR power and elite defense. Very team friendly contract for 2.5 years.

Ryan is actually ok. MRI came back clean. He may not miss a start.

Mets will probably sell Peralta to anyone. He's a half season rental. I don't think they would have an issue selling him to us.

Alcantrara will likely be available. deGrom might be available. Sonny Gray might be available.

That's potentially 5 front end starters available.

Yeah if the offer is good enough, i think you'd trade anyone even if they're inside your division. It's not common but it happens.

I'd be happy with any of those options, honestly. Joe Ryan or Peralta seem like AA moves, imo. deGrom is owed a lot and we've not gotten Sonny and had many chances, so it's pretty clear they're not high on him.

Sale, Peralta/Ryan, Strider, Elder, Waldrep/Holmes/Lopez would be great.

If Schwelly is back healthy, then Sale, Schwelly, Peralta/Ryan, Strider, Elder could be elite. I initially left Ritchie out, but he'd be an option, of course.
 
Man how great would it be if Jarvis could be our version of Jeff McNeil/Whit Merrifield?
