Both deals seem fair and adress needs of both parties. Feels light. I'd maybe do that for Colome alone, but I'd rather just keep Bummer in that scenario.

On the flip side, pretty much all teams in contention need bullpen help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing at update time he takes a big jump since he has yet to lose a game and has great peripherals. or maybe he gets really lucky and wins a bunch of coin flips and ends up in the top 50!

I dig Gray, but if Bummer is going in the deal as well I'd like May as a centerpiece. Gray is certainly a rising prospect himself though that I am interested in. Thomas has some pop, but the hit tool seems fringy at best Edited July 17, 2019 by steveno89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The FG guys have him #5 in Dodgers system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MyNamesRod Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I think at this point I’d go all in on getting Dustin May. I’d offer bummer colome and Garcia for May and a lower prospect. Having May along with Kopech, Giolito, cease, and potentially a free agent arm could be unreal for a rotation in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I am the Dodgers, I would not be all that keen on trading May. He's their best pitching prospect and is close to MLB ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that leaves Ruiz or May to headline a deal for relief pitching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiSox59 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Dodgers I would imagine (without looking too far into it) are going to have a serious 40 man roster crunch this offseason. Something has to give. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 Dodgers are going to obtain bullpen help. Giants and Padres might not be sellers. Colome/Bummer might be best available option. Leverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you’re overpaying for the 2.3 fWAR (on pace for 4ish) version and not the 2016-18 version. https://www.fangraphs.com/statss.aspx?playerid=15464&position=OF At some point, they maybe have to choose between him and Reyes because they both put too much defensive pressure on Margot or Myers in CF to cover ground and neither of those two guys have handled it well.

OneDog847 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 What about trading Colome back to Seattle for Omar? The Sox could use a lefty catcher to platoon with McCann next year since Collins doesn't appear to be close to ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yikes that is a really high asking price. Lux is not getting moved, he's a top 20 prospect in the game right now. May is not far behind that either. Gray is a guy they could potentially deal, who should appear as a backend top 100 prospect on updated lists. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
