What about something like: To Diamondbacks Luis Garcia Pedro Leon Yainer Diaz To Astros: Daulton Varsho Carson Kelly Christian Walker Walker,...
Ideally i think best course is to find a natural centerfielder who can get on base. If it's not Nimmo, we can maybe trade for someone. We can...
To me slightly above average would be the 11th-15th best shortstop ranked by 30 teams. Seems about right based on what you're putting down...
Yes, and he was old for a rookie. Thank you for bringing up another example.
Not a bad idea... i doubt they do that though due to their love of Maldonado...
Average AL rookie of the year was 22.4 years old. 22-23 is when most debut. Talk about covid all you want but he hadn't played above A ball.

He was. Are you implying Lee didn't lose a year to Covid? Are you implying Pena would have skipped AAA if Correa wasn't in his way? Most elite...
Because in both cases you're relying on unproven talent that has less than a 50% chance of success. Your quality of prospects comment is...
Korey Lee in AAA this season may very well hit .260 with a .325 ob% and around a .800 ops. That would be more in line with his previous levels in...
Nimmo is usually a .400 ob% guy. Those are more rare than catchers who can give you roughly a Then your logic is inconsistent.
I agree. Was exaggerating that while you try to fill holes you have to consider cost in players and salary. Technically the Astros would have...
