July 27, 20214 yr Any Trea Turner talk is probably moot.. if the Mariners are involved they can beat out any offer we have. If the Rays are involved, they can beat out any offer, etc. Our farm system just fucking sucks. Edit: I should note that I don't trade Vaughn/Kopech under any circumstance.

They have to be completely off limits. Both of these guys are players you build your team around. Vaughn is already showing what kind of hitter he is going to be, which is one of the best in the league. And Kopech has a $300 million arm.

Turner is simply not a realistic trade option for the Sox as the asking price will be exorbitant. Hahn is shrewd enough to not clean out the farm for any one player. Expect them to go the rental route.
July 27, 20214 yr Lmao damn I will never see Sesame Street the same again but yes TT even though Washington GM would want either Crochet or Kopech I agree don't mind giving up Crochef if somehow we extend TT...
July 27, 20214 yr I would not offer Vaughn but assuming arguendo you had a deal = Trea for Vaughn. You then acquire Escobar or another rental for the balance of 2021 to play. 2B. in 2022 you either sign Trea for a few years or let him go to arbitration, but he is on the roster. Trea has played many games in CF and is one of the leagues fastest players. So you potentially have 4-5 outfielders - Cespedes, Colas, Robert and Eloy and Trea Plus you have Madrigal back at second base. If Rodon can be extended you are virtually guaranteed another play-off appearance.
July 27, 20214 yr There are six SS but obviously TT is cream of crop, Correa cheater, Baez I like but not enough contact, Seager always injured, Simmons past his prime, Gregory's is suspect...I take TT any day

Indeed, sometimes a star player has a lot to say about where they play, or in the case of Eloy, don't play in the field. Trea though has played in the outfield for 80 major league games so it would not be a stretch. It's probably a moot point because people are psyched about Vaughn after his his current hitting streak. If he was in a mid-season slump he might be viewed as tradeable.

Trea turner 1.5 years is worth that price tag alone, having an ace and valuable BP piece in the deal even if rentals make it very much in favor of the Sox I think
July 27, 20214 yr I wouldn't trade Cease for anyone at the trade deadline TBH. Madrigal could be a trade piece for a guy like Trea Turner. I'd do Madrigal + Crochet I think (and some small minor leaguer pieces) but that's the most I'd go. Still would hate to lose Madrigal.

July 27, 20214 yr If we don't get a rumor or a deal done soon, I will need to create a foodie account to quench my news thirst.
