[閒聊] 3 blockbuster trades that make sense
1. Yankees trade for a starting pitcher named Chris.
Flip. The. House. The Yankees didn't make any significant free agent acquisiti
ons last offseason. Then they pulled off a fire sale to improve their farm sys
tem from a top-10 group to a top-five, some say even a top-two. They can easil
y use some of the prospects they got from trading Chapman, Andrew Miller and C
arlos Beltran in a deal that would give them one of the two aces out there nam
ed Chris: Chris Archer or Chris Sale.
Both have multiple years of control left in their contracts for not much money
, especially when it comes to the Yankees. And acquiring either one of them gi
ves theYankees a much scarier rotation with Archer/Sale and Masahiro Tanaka at
the top.
And let's face it: While the Yankees are still in rebuilding mode, they're sti
ll always in winning mode. They never lose. They haven't had a losing season i
n 24 freakin' years. They traded two of the best relievers in the league -- an
d both played important roles in the World Series -- along with their best hit
ter and still won 84 games with a chance to take an AL Wild Card spot. Acquiri
ng either Sale or Archer (yes, Tampa Bay trading him within the division seems
far-fetched) could make them legitimate contenders in 2017. They could put to
gether a package of top prospects Clint Frazier and Jorge Mateo, along with ou
tfielder Brett Gardner in order to get either one of them. Seems like a steep
price, but the Yankees would still have the Cubs' former top shortstop prospec
t Gleyber Torres among their other young stars-in-waiting, like Aaron Judge an
d Tyler Austin.
-----大意如下
洋基可以用一包新秀還有園丁去換
Chris Sale或是 Chris Archer
(Archer因為洋基光芒同區可能性較低)
這包新秀包含Clint Frazier、Jorge Mateo等人
即使交易掉他們 農場還會有Geylber Torres
擁有Sale/Archer+Tanaka
將會讓洋基前段輪值看起來望而生畏
2. Nationals trade for Andrew McCutchen
The Washington Nationals and Pittsburgh Pirates discussed a trade that would s
end center fielder and former National League Most Valuable Player Andrew McCu
tchen to D.C. back in July, according to Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports. It would
have made sense to pull off that trade then, and it still makes sense now.
Trea Turner shouldn't be playing in center field anymore, as fun as it was to
watch him show off his speed out there. He should be playing shortstop where h
e belongs. That would obviously leave a hole in the outfield for the Nats. The
y've tried using Ben Revere and Michael Taylor there, with little success. Tak
ing a chance and hoping McCutchen's 2016 campaign (.256/.336/.430) was a fluke
and not a trend could be the move that gets them past the National League Div
ision Series next season. Not to mention that McCutchen will make just $14 mil
lion in 2017 and has a $14.5 million club option for 2018.
As for the Pirates, they're still moving in the right direction. Their outfiel
d would still be one of the best with Gregory Polanco and Starling Marte and p
rospect Austin Meadows waiting to get a chance. And they would improve their a
lready-top-five farm system.
That Nats could send Pittsburgh 19-year-old outfield prospect Victor Robles, w
ho the Pirates reportedly wanted in July, and maybe pitching prospect Reynaldo
Lopez and current starter Tanner Roark, who just posted a 2.83 ERA in 210 inn
ings.
-------大意如下
Trea Turner不該繼續鎮守中外野
而是該回到他熟悉的游擊區位置
而Taylor、Revere等已被證實
不是國民滿意的中外野遞補人選
這就給McCutchen的到來提供了機會
海賊外野已有Blanco、Marte和新秀Meadows
可以用海賊王換來一包新秀強化農場
而具體方案是
國民送出Victor Robles、Reynaldo Lopez
以及現階段先發Tanner Roark
3. Orioles bring CarGo to Camden
Baltimore is a team with plenty of needs, but a move like this certainly seems
in line with what O's general manager Dan Duquette wants. MLB.com's O's repor
ter Brittany Ghiroli tweeted that Duquette is emphasizing the outfield, specif
ically looking for a left-handed bat. So why not Carlos Gonzalez?
Wouldn't it be so much fun taking CarGo from one hitters ballpark and putting
him in another, watching him rope homers toward the warehouse?
Now, Gonzalez's defense in right field would only be a slight improvement for
Baltimore's most recent right fielder, free agent Mark Trumbo (Trumbo had a -1
8.3 defensive runs above average in 2016 to Gonzalez's -6.5). But … dingers!
The Orioles love power: They've had the Major League leader in homers in each
of the last four years. So maybe Gonzalez takes over that role in Baltimore af
ter Trumbo heads elsewhere. They could send reliever Brad Brach (the Rockies n
eed to improve their bullpen), first baseman Trey Mancini (the Rox also need a
first baseman) and one of their pitching prospects, despite none of them bein
g ranked in MLB.com's top 100 prospects list.
Cargo only has one more year and $20 million remaining on his contract anyways
, so it would make sense for Colorado to move him now. It wouldn't solve Balti
more's starting pitching problems, but Duquette doesn't mind his rotation righ
t now ... for some reason.
------大意如下
金鳥這個休賽季
總管有強調說需要強化的部分包含外野
川波離去後給外野有了個空
且最好是有power的左打者
況且Cargo的合約僅剩一年
落磯可以想想能拿Cargo換到什麼
具體方案是金鳥送出Brad Brach
以及一壘手新秀Trey Mancini
還有一名投手新秀
心得:
第一筆交易感覺短期內不容易發生
洋基那筆看起來很美很好
可是要洋基丟大把新秀出去很困難
園丁合約也要看白襪/光芒撿不撿
國民交易海賊相對可能性高些
兩隊在今年交易大限前就已經有初步討論
只是可惜最終沒有結果
而金鳥這筆交易
感覺短期內也不會發生
比較可能在明年交易大限前
落磯把Cargo賣給想衝季後賽的球隊
這樣換來的還比較大包
