Trade deadline 2022 edition

[gotime909]

All you're trading is one young guy for another. And based on the players we traded over the years we'd get screwed in a trade.

A player like Skubal would bring back likely 3 top prospects

 

[tomdalton22]

I'll be pretty disappointed if they don't trade Fulmer and then he walks in the off season.

Fulmer to the Twins

24 year old pitcher in return

 

[gotime909]

Not even top 30 in the twins system. Fulmer wasn't worth much on his own. Needed to package him with Soto or Chafin to get anything decent.

I wonder if fat Al just happened to bump into the twins gm at dinner. Lazy fuck

I am OK with not trading Soto given him being under team control for 3 more years.

 

[tomdalton22]

Fulmer started helping the Twins yesterday!

 

[tigermud]

He?ll probably pitch against us tonight and shut em all down

This team won't be good in any of those 3 years. Holding guys like Boyd and Fulmer when they had peak value when the teams were trash is why we're still in this mess of a rebuild. Obviously we don't have the GM that has the balls to make tough calls.

you are probably right...but they still have 3 years to trade him. Maybe they'll get a new GM who can will get a good return for him

Peak value for an all star reliever is a 24 year old pitcher who just got sent back to single A because he got shelled in double A and isn?t even a top 30 prospect for the Twins? Avila got literally nothing back for Grossman and Fulmer. No player that will see the majors ever.

That's about what I would expect for Grossman. I was hoping they might get something a little better for Fulmer

 

[biggunsbob]

Freaking Avila. Worst Gm in baseball.

 

[lonesometiger]

simple question how soon will our new players become helpful?

 

[lonesometiger]

Better question is will Fulmer or Grossman become FAs. And will aa make a bid!

 

[gotime909]

I find it hilarious that san fran was able to do something that detroit couldn't do in 7 years. Trade Matthew Boyd.

And he never even pitched a single inning in their organization

 

[Mitchrapp]

I don't see that myself. Maybe 1 top and a couple middles. Either way it's a big risks.

Well lucky for you, we have a GM that thinks the same way.

I have a feeling we're stuck with AA. Many more years of poor talent evaluation. AA and Chad need to go but seriously doubt this is going to happen.
