southsider2k5 Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 With what was paid for Quintana and for Sale, SOMEONE out there will offer more for Thor if SD won't put its top guys into a deal. A team like the Astros could easily out offer them for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baron Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 Tatis has to be in the convo for him. That would be just silly otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there’s a potential for a trade like that to make sense for the Mets that includes like 6 prospects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, but if those two elite guys aren't available, as Heyman is suggesting, there is enough quality In their second tier that you could still make a good quantity deal. And with the Mets system as bad as it is, I don’t know, it might be a unique opportunity to infuse a lot of talent.

yesterday333 Posted November 29, 2018 Share Posted November 29, 2018 I feel like the Reds would be a good fit here. With Senzel being blocked he would be a good piece to move... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh, yeah probably. Unless I was afraid of his medicals or attitude or something. Which the Mets very well may be, given that his agent is now their GM. And, since they're shopping NS but making DeGrom untouchable, it makes you wonder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiliIrishHammock24 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 Well now that the Mets have added Cano and Diaz, they can now go ahead and.....sell Syndergaard? I don't understand the Mets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Parkman Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) The Mets make no sense whatsoever. It sucks to be living in the shadow of the Yankees though. They're doing 2014-16 White Sox shit. I don't think it is a coincidence that the Sox, Mets, and Angels often do things that make no sense. They all feel like they have pressure to compete ASAP with the other team in town a yearly juggernaut. Don't be surprised if the Sox do some things that don't make sense this winter either.

According to fangraphs one 60fv (top10 overall) is worth 2 50s (50-100 on top100) or about 10 45s (org 8-15). You would need 20 40s (worth 3m) to match one 60 in projected dollar value. That is why the quantity packages that fans love to suggest usually don't work to get a top target, teams want the top prospect rather than big quantity.

Eh, the White Sox ripped the roster down to the studs and rebuilt the farm and the young core. Now, they’re ready to start adding because the waves of talent is coming up.

I hope this means that the mets are going to eliminate the idea of starting pitchers, but more likely it just means this new gm is an idiot.

I think he wants to move him with the idea that they can get a few young MLB ready players on the roster. Kind of like the idea of the Indians dangling Bauer out there.
