Quin Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 QUOTE (FT35 @ Jan 13, 2017 -> 11:46 AM) Trying to come up with a decent MLB comp for Austin Meadows if he develops the way he should...curious to see what you all think. Solve: Austin Meadows >/= Adam Eaton? Austin Meadows >/= Grady Sizemore? Any other ideas? We merge him with Adam Engel and get Mike Trout. http://piratesbreakdown.com/2016/03/03/pit...ext-mike-trout/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankees I've been promoting a Yankees trade the last couple pages and Mateo/Rutherford are a nice combo to take the place of Torres or Frazier, but a better 3rd piece is needed like Sheffield/Kaprielian/Acevedo and I don't want to touch Judge quite frankly.

On pure upside the Rockies proposal would be very strong David Dahl is a very good OF prospect 2015 Scouting grades for Dahl Scouting grades: Hit: 60 | Power: 55 | Run: 60 | Arm: 55 | Field: 60 | Overall: 55 Rodgers is a top 10 prospect I doubt the Rockies would offer up both Dahl and Rodgers.

Mattchoo Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 (edited) I'm no scout, and I have seen almost nothing on the guy other than 1 video... but by stats alone... if the Rockies are giving up Brendan Rodgers + one other, you take it. The other day I stated that I wanted Meadows + 2. But I'm willing to budge on this if everyone in the organization/league figures that Meadows (or Rodgers) are sure players. Meadows + 1 (Bell?) or Rodgers + 1 (no idea) Edited January 13, 2017 by Mattchoo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meadows + 1 (Bell?) or Rogers + 1 (no idea) Pretty sure the Sox are looking for at least three players in a trade. Although if Bridich calls up Hahn and offers "Rodgers + Dahl for Quintana" I would pack Q's bag and drive him to the airport Rockies fans would be pretty furious. No mlb team could be a Dahl/Rodgers offer unless teams opened up the whole farm for the sox Edited January 13, 2017 by steveno89 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do Sox should accept. Dahl had an .859 OPS is 222 MLB at bats last year. The Rockies are not moving him, and they certainly aren't moving him + Rodgers. But if that offer ever somehow made it to the table, the Sox should take it and run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know sports mockery is usually trash, but this is from a former GM I've said from the beginning that Dahl + Rodgers would be amazing. The Rockies are way too unpredictable to gauge, but if they sign someone like Trumbo and the Sox include Robertson or Jones in the deal, this scenario isn't that far-fetched.

bmags Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I was going to make a case for Aaron Judge by looking up Dunn but then I looked up Adam Dunn's minor league stats and he was hitting 1000+ OPS consistently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
