If the idea is that Preller wants Crochet but doesn't want to give up Salas or De Vries, the Orioles would be a weird trade partner, because 1) we could just get prospects from them directly rather than making SD the middleman, 2) Elias isn't going to give up anything meaningful for 1 year of Cease if he wasn't willing to give up anything meaningful for 2 years of Cease and 3) the Orioles no longer seem to be a great fit for the Sox, the guys we were interested in last year are now accruing service time and are older and don't really fit our expected contention period (Cowser, Kjerstad etc) and/or are likely to end up at 1B (Mayo, Basallo) and the younger guys aren't really anything special so I don't see how making SD the middleman in order to send BAL prospects to CWS makes sense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point of dealing Cease isn't to get guys the main guys you would get for Crochet. It would be to help your prospect depth when you deal your own top guys from taking a major hit.

I personally would keep Cease and the assets needed to acquire Crochet. Cease has far less injury risk, and longterm I'd feel better resigning him rather than extending Crochet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hi8is Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 My guess is we’ll get 4 players… Teel, Abreu, and two low level arms. Perhaps a low level positional lottery pick instead of two arms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheFutureIsNear Posted December 11 Share Posted December 11 (edited) Would have preferred Mayer obviously, but Teel, Montgomery, Meidroth, and González is actually pretty damn good. Edited December 11 by TheFutureIsNear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
