But attacking Kyle is a worthwhile and high minded endeavor.

If we gain 25-30 games over this season and the extreme selling that is going to happen either in the next two week and/or over the winter, that would be one helluva recovery.

I think in terms of who could win one of these deals if they wanted to, the Orioles lead this list by far, and then I think comes in the Mariners and Red Sox. That list is 100% on if they want to win a deal, and also have a need for the players involved. Past that teams like San Diego, Philly, and the Yankees could make a deal work if other teams aren't willing to deal their high players.

Pool is determined by the aggregate of your picks.

And the likely answer is both based on how we have treated the kids so far this year.

Accurate. They originally made it sound like Moncada would be back now, but apparently that timeline is getting quietly pushed back.

Mendick and Moldy got us down to 38, which were then replaced by Senzel and Baldwin.

And now we are looking at one of the worst (if not THE worst) seasons in MLB history.

It did, but we added both Senzel and Baldwin, so those spots are gone.

Here's to hoping this goes better than Nastrini, Leasure, Ellis, and Ramos did.

Fox must be funky as hell as nothing about his stuff write up sounded that impressive.

#1, so this means another 40 man roster move has to happen for Moncada. #2, this seems really quick, but I guess we will see if the kid has something.

Such as a middle reliever as say the 3rd or 4th piece in a trade for a pitcher who ceased to be with the Sox?

Yeah looking up his fangraphs, Senzel isn't even a decent defender at these positions. https://www.fangraphs.com/players/nick-senzel/19293/stats?position=OF

Do the Dodgers have any middle relievers or old utility guys? Asking for an unnamed GM.

He's not. He's a spaceholder to block the kids.

Well then cross him off of the list.

Still has 5 years of control left. Most of my problem is that he really looks like this year was a bust, and a hard regression at the major league level.

Yeah, Ideally i would send Robert and Crochet to separate teams.

Yeah, I am ok with Quero getting some extra time. No rush there. I'd rather even get a Carlos Perez run again.
