flavum Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Derosa predicted before the season that the Astros are going to go out and get a pitcher- he predicted Sale or Gray back then. That's all. Nothing to see here. Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YouCanPutItOnTheBoardYES! Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Springer would be amazing, but he's probably untouchable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerksticks Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Can't trade Sale, Harper etc without winning the trade on paper. All GMs know this so the potential hauls would be nintendo style. I love Chris and it's retarded to trade a HOFer but the idea of adding tons of top guys to our blossoming system sounds fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a huge haul even for Sale. A more fair deal for both sides might look like Sale/Frazier to Houston for Bregman/Reed/McCullers/Martes/Tucker.

elrockinMT Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 (edited) I am not sure I have ever heard any trade proposal from the crew at MLBN ever coming true.

shipps Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 I dont know if there would be a comparable of a team trading this type of asset for a haul of prospects. Considering his durability, age, contract and his numbers. Â Probably arent many that would be similar because teams just dont trade guys at this exact juncture with that financial freedom like we have with Sale.

How do you trade Sale for a bunch of prospects? Too many top prospects fail to pan out. Â McCullers would plug into rotation but I get your point. I just don't see any team giving up young controllable position players (Seager, Bogaerts, etc) who are important pieces to these contenders.
