This video has been up for over 2 hours now, and at the end of the video, I challenged everyone to post your own trades and ideas. I have yet to see one trade proposal, and mostly just push back. Instead, I would love to see all of you put your money where your mouth is and post YOUR trade proposals. Let’s see what you got ❤️
I didn't propose a trade bcuz, the Astros don't need to trade. If anything, we need a new coach. He's erratic, takes players out, when doesn't need to. Takes pitchers out, for the smallest of reasons. Just like Tom Selleck said in Mr. Baseball, let him pitch out of it, instead he pulls him and his relief screws up the game, it has happened one too many times.
as an orioles fan Mayo/Basallo are basically untouchables. Two best hitters in our system for the future. Basallo may be the most pure hitter we have had in a decade+ at his age. He can play 1B down the road or catch and save adleys knees and move him to 1B. Mayo has massive power and shouldn’t be traded. Look for the os to trade guys like Norby, Beavers MAYBE kjerstad because he is blocked but even that is a big maybe. and guys like jud fabian etc. Holliday/Basallo/Mayo are the 3 untouchables imo
My Bo to the dodgers trade proposal is Bo for James outman and Kyle hurt. Outman has the defence Toronto loves and has proven he can hit for some power in the mlb, but doesn’t have a spot on the dodgers roster. Kyle hurt Is a high upside pitching prospect. Bo is a 4+ war player per season thru his career so this seems fair for both sides
As a Blue Jays fan, I really want to get Ryan McMahon! He's everything the team needs. He plays 3rd base, which I think is a position we need an upgrade in. He's a lefty bat, which we need. He hits for power (to my belief), something the Jays have needed for years. Plus, his contract has 3 more years of team control. Come on Atkins, make this trade happen!
I think I could definitely see Brent Rooker being moved and I see the braves being a great fit considering the loss of Acuña for the season give them a guy who can play the corners power bat and first base god forbid they needed it. Considering they’ve come to the table in the past as trade partners I could see it
Commentator get so juicy over :strike while the iron is hot" trades, but trading a hot young pitcher under control thru 2026 seems like piss away any future. Fedde has one more year of control
We’ve seen the hot iron trades work out many times before, but I would only trade Crochet if it nets a big piece. Getting an impact bat like Coby Mayo for instance could be big.
Even though they've been struggling recently, I can see the Royals upgrade their horrendous outfield with Lane Thomas. He fits the team perfectly as a solid defender and basestealer. The Nats have Wood and Crews in the minors waiting to take the OF spots. And Lane will be a FA after 2026. I can see them giving up underperforming players like MJ Melendez and Daniel Lynch, both of whom have years of control.
Seattle needs a big bat and desperately. Any chance that teams like the Astros with Kyle Tucker or Mets with Pete Alonso would be willing to do a trade? The Mariners have a pretty good farm system and has enough to make a big trade, like when they acquired Luis Castillo from the Reds.
Tbh I think both trades for Bo are not great for the dodgers Josue and Dalton would never happen for a slumping hitter And about the 2nd trade offer Knack: I don’t think dealing knack would be smart he is doing great this year and still has many years of team control compared to Bo who is only signed through 2025 Lux: a change of scenery would 100% help lux but I don’t think that means we have to deal him he’s starting to heat up a little bit as of recent Cartaya: And for Cartaya he is a former top 10 Prospect in the WHOLE MLB so I think dealing him by himself or in another deal would definitely be better then this deal for a in a player who in 2024 has been a mid-term/slumping shortstop. But we don’t need Dalton and Cartaya while we have Will Smith locked up for 10 years, so I think moving Cartaya this deadline isn’t a horrible idea
Even though you disagree, I love this response! A well thought out response with reasoning. Thanks for this! What would you like to see the Dodgers do instead?
@@rhydetbh I like where our roster is rn but more pitching could never hurt especially with the injuries that seem to always happen to us Maybe Lux, Cartaya or Lux and Josue and a good pitcher (prospect or MLB) for Tarik Skubal?
0:25 Framber Valdez, Luis Garcia, Robel Blanco, Cristian Javier, Bryan Abreu, Chas McCormick, Jake Meyers, Yordan Alvarez… If some New York baseball writer says “the Astros have the worst farm system in MLB,” just use your eyes.
@@greglittle6471 The point is that you shouldn’t trust their evaluations because they literally keep turning “minor leaguers aren’t good” into, “how many top prospects do I need to trade for that guy who was washing cars as a 20 year old in DR?” And, please, for the love of God, learn how to use commas. You don’t even know what you’re talking about.
Trading a bunch of prospects for Luis Robert Jr would be one of the dumbest things any organization could do. About to be 27 and has had one season with any semblance of heath but expecting him to make the type of impact on an organization like Pittsburgh that would make it worth it makes no sense. He's Byron Buxton part 2. He'll always just be what if potential.
I disagree with that sentiment as of right now. I think he needs more time until he gets the label “Buxton 2.0”. I also think he has more much upside than Buxton. Not often you see a player like him.
Crochet would be a better fit for the Guardians rather than Baltimore, they are in dire need of another SP and getting another left handed SP would go a long way to getting them to the World Series, their only left handed SP is Logan Allen and he has been very up inconsistent
I'm tired of John Mozaliak not being in the mix for a front of the line pitcher. Most of these programs ignore Cardinal Nation as a result.How about Nolan Arenado and Tommy Edman and Gordon Graceffo for Gavin Stone. LA will have Ohtani and other prospects to fill that spot. With Betts andMuncy out, this would solve a lot of problems for both teams.
I'd rather see the Orioles include Heston Kjerstad other than Basallo. Other than that I'm good with the package. Can't see them including Mayo, really high on him
Hey Robbie. I'll post a trade idea. It won't be very exciting though. Braves / DBacks Braves send: Prospect Cade Kuehler. DBacks send: Kevin Newman. Newman is on an expiring contract and hitting a little above himself so he shouldn't be expensive though I might have to go as high as Owen Murphy. The Braves shortstop spot is quite a black hole in the batting line up so someone who isn't really all that impressive over all would still be an upgrade.
Feel like the Stros are just not going to sell but man Tucker with us would be sick. Just think Robert is more needed than Tucker. And Casty is not awful defensively
Like right and left isnt really the issue if Robert is in center, but adding Tucker and moving castellanos creates such a defensive hole in left that it would be hard to outhit. We saw it in 2022 and early 2023 that it took so much offense to outhit having Schwarber in left
@@rhyde absolutely all signs say that, especially how awful their pitching has gotten to with every guy getting hurt or just not pitching good. But committing 100 million to Hader and Altuve getting older makes me think they don't give up
Astros aren’t trading anybody away lmao not only are they getting red hot right now but the gm Dana Brown already said several times they’re going to buyers at the deadline
Castellanos doesnt work in LF because he can only catch things that are in and to the left of him. Which is why he plays RF the way he does. If he moves to left field, he isnt going to catch anything cause most balls will be going out and to the right of him, which he has a history of horrible reads and plays when the ball travels that way
If DBacks aren't actively trying to find a 3B that isn't a free out offensively or a free line drive into left field defensively, then they are trolling 2024. Suarez has been terrible.
I’m trying to come up with a bat for the Rangers. Any ideas or names that may make sense? The team is starting to get healthy and Langford seems to be finding his footing. I think a record around .500 +- 2 games is reasonable and keeps the Rangers within wild card range. They could trade Dane dunning or another SP for bat swap given that when healthy the Rangers will have 9 MLB capable SP’s once Degrom, Mahle and Bradford are back. Who are some realistic bats for Rangers and a fun out of pocket option that isnt likely but could happen?
I just saw your video with the Luis Robert Trade proposals. Rangers package is good but I’ll be damned if I’m Texas and I’m giving up Teodo. There is just no shot you could justify that right now. We’re a franchise that is starving for home grown pitching and Teodo is a guy who has the stuff (as long as he can control it) to be a frontline starter. After this season too the Rangers lose Scherzer, Gray, Lorenzen, Heaney and potentially Evo. They still have Mahle Degrom, Bradford and Dunning for sure at least, but the Rangers can’t keep shelling out money every offseason for pitchers and at some point need to bring up guys through the system. I think you could add a guy like Dane Acker or even send Leody back to the White Sox in turn. I understand the star power of Robert, but there’s the injury concerns and then the Rangers future needs of pitching. Keep Teodo slot in a replacement and I would make that deal.
Only way they are letting Bregman truly go is if they are getting a solid pitcher or first baseman as well as someone to replace Bregman so it’s doubtful
I don't get it? What the hell would we do with Ward? Put him in the outfield? I'm not saying no, I'm just confused. 3rd base is a little clogged up for probably the next 5-10 years.
@@tonyb2109 you put him in left field, where a notable hole is following David Dahl being a noticeably replacement level player. I love the dude, I genuinely do, but Ward in the hitting lab with Cotham (which notoriously fixed Brandon Marsh) could be the key to unlocking Ward as a whole, where he is also a plus defender, and a more consistent hitter we’ve lacked out of the OF. JoRo, Dahl, Shit Terrifield, and Pache arent starters in a championship team. They’re 4th options (atp). You need an OF bat.
@@callmecassian6952 yeah, I only want the Astros to lose a lot so they'll consider trader Tucker. If not, I'd consider Robert Jr, but I'm not really high on him bc of his injury history but my number 2 right now might be Jazz Chisolm.
Nah he can still be moved. He has enough track record where teams could still make a gamble. If it was his arm and not his back, this would be a different conversation.
Mets: Kyle Tucker Astros: Drew Gilbert/Ryan Clifford, Colin Houck, Kevin Parada and Tylor Megill Get one of your OF prospects from the Verlander trade back, 2 more top 10 prospects from the Mets farm, and Megill hasnt seen much success but has good stuff and the Astros could definitely unlock something in him, maybe as a bullpen arm
If Bo Bichette is moved, it’ll probably be to Cleveland. Adkins has deep ties with that FO, and Cleveland has struggled to get an impact offensive player at SS since Lindor. I think a reasonable deal there would be Ralphy Velasquez or Jaison Chourio as the centerpiece, surrounded by a Tommy Mace and Andrew Walters. If Jays wanted immediate MLB help you can replace Walters with Gabriel Arias.
The Dodgers and Blue Jays line up well in a possible Bo trade & apparently they did have some level of conversation this past off season per an article by Toronto writer Jeff Blair of Sportsnet. Accordingly to J. Blair the Dodgers have been trying to sell teams on Lux with no takers. Lux makes sense to for Toronto me because this Jays front office will value MLB players or MLB ready players + be hard pressed to sell any type of rebuild to ownership/fans & the GM is on thin ice already. As a Jays fan I'm in favour of a more substantive rebuild but don't want this front office in charge of it. So, if Bo gets traded, I'm hoping it's in the off season.
Personally, I'd prefer the Astros keep everybody for an ill-fated run for the playoffs and then suck for a looooooooong time. If the Dodgers got Bo, Mookie would play 2nd base. He says he's saving his legs by playing in the infield. Will Smith will take over at 1st base when Freddie's contract is up, so Rushing has a path to the majors in LA.
i will be back to expose u robbie. astros have been playing season changing baseball past week. we are still the astros. last 4 teams remaining for the past 7 years. they cannot keep us down
The Pirates have such SP depth right now losing Chandler would be manageable. Him, Solometo, Harrington (who I am very high on) Ashcraft, Burrows, amongst others. They have been terrible at developing bats so striking while the iron is hot with Termarr might be smart. Management is so reluctant to make impact moves like that though I highly doubt it will happen
That De Paula trade is horrendous. Friedman wont trade him. Hes already made the mistake trading away young international prospects too quick in Oneil Cruz and Yordan. Hes not making that mistake again. Outman/Pages would be traded before de paula would.
A way better trade would be Dodgers get Bo. Blue Jay's get Outman, Cartaya, Noah Miller, and Ronan Kopp. Bluejays could for sure ask for more, but since Bichette's bat has been slumping, this would be the best they can get. Outman has been mashing in AAA this year after being sent down, and quite honestly, he just needs a change of scenery
Wish my Yanks were on here 😢 Good takes here, but I would have concerns with Tucker to the Phils. Logic and prospect haul are fine, but I think the Phillies are a bit handcuffed with Castellanos and Schwarber defensively. I think it’d be too tough for Nick to switch to LF considering RF is the only position he can play almost decently, and it’s still pretty bad lol. Could work if Tucker learns how to play left, though
Robbie, would it be crazy to think the jays trading Bo could open up money for Soto to Toronto? They have a good core but everything relies on vlad (who they can’t help lift the ball and turn his exit velos is mvp stats). They also showed they were willing to spend on Ohtani
I can't believe anyone is a supporter of Phillies/Dodgers stacking more talent, at some point MLB has to start vetoing some of this crap, Phils/Dodgers are far too power stacked, they need to just be forced to make things work with their respective dream teams as is, they don't need to be allowed to secure even better players. Bichette to Dodgers and Tucker to Phillies is absolutely broken, they would elevate both squads to having a full blown monopoly on winning. F that. There are 28 other ballclubs with fanbases who deserve better than that.
Lesko is still an unknown, all the other pieces mentioned are depth pieces in our system. Would be more worried that we would get outbid more than anything.
@@stortacus Lesko is not an unknown, he has great stuff but hasn't found his command post TJ. If he can start to find the zone with any regularity he's going to rocket through the minors
As a Jay fan I would prefer outman + two prospects or one over lux + two prospects for bo. Outman has shown more potential as a every day centerfielder or outfielder then lux has as a middle infielder
My fellow Tiger fans would burn me at the stake for saying this but they have to consider trading Skubal. They need offense in the worst way possible. Skubal is a Boras client which means no extension. And he's had two elbow surgeries. Its gotta at least be considered but it have to be comparable if the Sox trade Crochet in terms of return.
I’d love to see a big team like the Yankees get Mason Miller. I know they have Holmes, but he’s a free agent next year, and he also has been shaky recently.
I like your deal for the Pirates, but I'm too afraid of giving up Termarr. I know they are awful at developing hitters but everyone thought he'd be so good when drafted. Low average scares me in the minors but still. I would try to make the deal without him if possible.
Your brain is smooth af if you think Basallo is going anywhere. Rutsch moves to first in 2027. And prior to that will be a DH mostly. They don’t want him catching too long
You’re saying my brain is smooth? My guy, I literally gave an alternative trade in the video with Mayo while saying “if the Orioles are hellbent on keeping Samuel Basallo, which I wouldn’t blame them at all, maybe you could do Coby Mayo” 14:25 I’ve had a lot of comments on videos, but this my friend might be one of the biggest L comments I’ve ever seen. Go to bed.
That Phillies trade proposal you made the 1st offer that is for Kyle Tucker is perfect id make that deal our lineup would be sick🔥🔥🔥🔥 def wouldn’t trade Aiden Miller
If we're getting Tucker, I'm totally fine giving up Miller. The whole infield is blocked for him for years to come, and Tucker is well worth it. I also want to see them go hard for Mason Miller. Just imagine. Go Phils!
The cubs and Astros make no sense. They pretty much in the same situation and the Astros seem to be coming out of their slump now that the ditched the god awful Jose Abreu
Thank you my friend, but to get someone like Aidan Miller for 1.5 years of Tucker especially if the Astros don’t plan on extending him would be massive. What would you want for Tucker if you traded him?
Many more videos to come. If I did more trades in this it would be way too long 😂. In the next few weeks I’ll be doing my annual “One Trade for Each Team by the Deadline” video 🥳
I would actually like for the Astros to keep it going. Just being a realist. At some point they’re going to have to add to the farm considering it ranks so low. With all the injuries, a record under .500, and Tucker less than 2 years away from free agency, this would be a good year to add prospects.
Trade with Astros 1B Vladimir jr Paul Goldschmidt Lamonte Wade jr Ryan O’Hearn SP Logan Webb Tarik Skubal Garret Crochet Jake Irvin Closer / Relief Mason Miller Tanner Scott Ryan Walker Jason Foley Bonus Kevin Pillar Wilson Contreras Riley Greene Bryan Reynolds
As a Pirates fan I’m all for trading Chandler & Termarr for an all star level CF with control….. Our farm system & stocked with great pitching people don’t even mention Ashcraft, Harrington, or the return of Burrows here soon lol The 2 players that would be no-nos for me would Charles McAdoo (LOVE HIM) & Yordany De Los Santos
I agree that we have a stacked system and in my opinion, I would be more than ok to give up Harrington rather than chandler. I would also give up Ashcroft rather than chandler. Instead of Lonnie, what about someone like Liover Peguero? He is a bit older, however the defensive and offensive upside with him is crazy. Fast as can be and great power.
Yeah for injury riddled Robert no way Termar/Chandler maybe Ashcraft or something like Solometo aswell but maybe Jazz or McMahon maybe easier then giving up the farm for Robert
@@GorbombZombay Definitely wouldn’t call him injury prone he played 145 games last year & in 2022 would’ve easily of played 125+ if not for a freak wrist/hand injury that could happen to literally anyone……. The hip injury is the only thing that would give me pause

Here's mine for Crochet (as an Orioles fan): Crochet for Heston Kjerstad, Jud Fabian, Luis De Leon and Chayce McDermott (or Trace Bright)
I don't see Robbie giving the Braves some talent for Trades
Kjerstad for Helsley and Norby/Stowers/Bright for Fedde
I don’t think the orioles trade Basallo. You don’t just give up a 19 year old with talent like that
This is why I also mentioned Mayo in a separate trade
You do when you have a handful of them
as an orioles fan Mayo/Basallo are basically untouchables. Two best hitters in our system for the future. Basallo may be the most pure hitter we have had in a decade+ at his age. He can play 1B down the road or catch and save adleys knees and move him to 1B.

Kjerstad won’t be blocked soon, and no one is untouchable at the right price.

Outman has the defence Toronto loves and has proven he can hit for some power in the mlb, but doesn’t have a spot on the dodgers roster. Kyle hurt Is a high upside pitching prospect.

Oooo Outman could be interesting!
As a jays fan outman is not enough as a centre piece for Bo.

I think both trades for Bo are not great for the dodgers
Josue and Dalton would never happen for a slumping hitter
And about the 2nd trade offer
Knack:
I don’t think dealing knack would be smart he is doing great this year and still has many years of team control compared to Bo who is only signed through 2025
Lux:
a change of scenery would 100% help lux but I don’t think that means we have to deal him he’s starting to heat up a little bit as of recent
Cartaya:
And for Cartaya he is a former top 10 Prospect in the WHOLE MLB so I think dealing him by himself or in another deal would definitely be better then this deal for a in a player who in 2024 has been a mid-term/slumping shortstop.

Too much talent on this team to not add!

Bat and he’s more of a 1B/C
The Astros GM already said they aren’t selling so the bregman trade is not realistic
Leverage. That tune will change if they're out of it in July.
Great video, this comment section does NOT know ball. Wow.
As a sox fan a trade I would do would be
Sox get: Colt Emerson, Lazaro Montes, and Aidan Smith
Mariners get: Luis Robert
Then add grochet for Mayo and pitching prospects and white Sox could have a good future
@@SamiKhan-yw1cfWe’re not trading Mayo
@@Bmorefan358 think you would need to deal basillo or mayo to get it done unless it’s a huge package involving kjerstad
I think this is a fair trade but if I’m the M’s I think I’d pass
I’d like to see the Phillies trade for Taylor Ward, sending over Crawford and McGarry in the process, with a guy like De La Cruz to finish the deal.
That would be solid for them!
I don't get it? What the hell would we do with Ward? Put him in the outfield? I'm not saying no, I'm just confused. 3rd base is a little clogged up for probably the next 5-10 years.
@@tonyb2109 you put him in left field, where a notable hole is following David Dahl being a noticeably replacement level player. I love the dude, I genuinely do, but Ward in the hitting lab with Cotham (which notoriously fixed Brandon Marsh) could be the key to unlocking Ward as a whole, where he is also a plus defender, and a more consistent hitter we’ve lacked out of the OF. JoRo, Dahl, Shit Terrifield, and Pache arent starters in a championship team. They’re 4th options (atp). You need an OF bat.
@@callmecassian6952 yeah, I only want the Astros to lose a lot so they'll consider trader Tucker. If not, I'd consider Robert Jr, but I'm not really high on him bc of his injury history but my number 2 right now might be Jazz Chisolm.
Twins need a LHP so badly
roberts and crochet to pirates
for chandler solometo johnson
Hell nah
Basallo to the Marlins for Braxton Garrett and Jose Devers
Cleveland needs something
Jesus Luzardo out for 6 weeks, so that's that. That's the danger of trying to drive a hard bargain
Nah he can still be moved. He has enough track record where teams could still make a gamble. If it was his arm and not his back, this would be a different conversation.
@@rhyde well this reduces his price tag right?
Most likely a bit
Aidan Miller is the last prospect to get trade. Phillies are very high on him.
So what are your thoughts on the 1st proposal I offered?
I can see Vladdy jr getting traded to the mariners
Why would the Jays trade the face of their franchise and during a down year when his value is low?
3 games now homie
I would love for the pirates to go after vladdy or go with the Robert trade
Mets: Kyle Tucker
Astros: Drew Gilbert/Ryan Clifford, Colin Houck, Kevin Parada and Tylor Megill
Get one of your OF prospects from the Verlander trade back, 2 more top 10 prospects from the Mets farm, and Megill hasnt seen much success but has good stuff and the Astros could definitely unlock something in him, maybe as a bullpen arm
Its going to take a truck load for the Astros to let KT walk
Rockies trade Kris Bryant and cash to the Yankees for Ian Hamilton and/or Phil Bickford
Nationals trade Trevor Williams to either the Guardians or the Padres
Nationals also trade Joey Gallo for a bucket of balls and a catered team lunch.
Think the catering company turns down that offer.
@@DarkSideMaceWindu😂😂😂
@@DarkSideMaceWindu 😂😂😂 worth a shot
If Bo Bichette is moved, it’ll probably be to Cleveland. Adkins has deep ties with that FO, and Cleveland has struggled to get an impact offensive player at SS since Lindor. I think a reasonable deal there would be Ralphy Velasquez or Jaison Chourio as the centerpiece, surrounded by a Tommy Mace and Andrew Walters. If Jays wanted immediate MLB help you can replace Walters with Gabriel Arias.
I think Bo in CLE makes a lot of sense
The Dodgers and Blue Jays line up well in a possible Bo trade & apparently they did have some level of conversation this past off season per an article by Toronto writer Jeff Blair of Sportsnet. Accordingly to J. Blair the Dodgers have been trying to sell teams on Lux with no takers. Lux makes sense to for Toronto me because this Jays front office will value MLB players or MLB ready players + be hard pressed to sell any type of rebuild to ownership/fans & the GM is on thin ice already. As a Jays fan I'm in favour of a more substantive rebuild but don't want this front office in charge of it. So, if Bo gets traded, I'm hoping it's in the off season.
Crochet Is An Oriole
Personally, I'd prefer the Astros keep everybody for an ill-fated run for the playoffs and then suck for a looooooooong time.
If the Dodgers got Bo, Mookie would play 2nd base. He says he's saving his legs by playing in the infield. Will Smith will take over at 1st base when Freddie's contract is up, so Rushing has a path to the majors in LA.
Yes. Use your anger.
Show us on the doll where the Astros hurt you
i will be back to expose u robbie. astros have been playing season changing baseball past week. we are still the astros. last 4 teams remaining for the past 7 years. they cannot keep us down
I will most likely be exposed 😂😂😂
The Pirates have such SP depth right now losing Chandler would be manageable. Him, Solometo, Harrington (who I am very high on) Ashcraft, Burrows, amongst others. They have been terrible at developing bats so striking while the iron is hot with Termarr might be smart. Management is so reluctant to make impact moves like that though I highly doubt it will happen
What do you think the tigers could get for Skubal?
That De Paula trade is horrendous. Friedman wont trade him. Hes already made the mistake trading away young international prospects too quick in Oneil Cruz and Yordan. Hes not making that mistake again. Outman/Pages would be traded before de paula would.
I literally put two different scenarios, but you come to just bash one of them. Gotta love the comment section during trade season 😂
A way better trade would be Dodgers get Bo. Blue Jay's get Outman, Cartaya, Noah Miller, and Ronan Kopp. Bluejays could for sure ask for more, but since Bichette's bat has been slumping, this would be the best they can get. Outman has been mashing in AAA this year after being sent down, and quite honestly, he just needs a change of scenery
Hyde rulz .......great video
🫵❤️
Wish my Yanks were on here 😢 Good takes here, but I would have concerns with Tucker to the Phils. Logic and prospect haul are fine, but I think the Phillies are a bit handcuffed with Castellanos and Schwarber defensively. I think it’d be too tough for Nick to switch to LF considering RF is the only position he can play almost decently, and it’s still pretty bad lol. Could work if Tucker learns how to play left, though
Can Robert really command a lot with all his injuries in the past? I wouldn't.
It depends on what teams think. Some teams might not think the risk is worth it, but other teams could feel it might put them over the top
Robbie, would it be crazy to think the jays trading Bo could open up money for Soto to Toronto? They have a good core but everything relies on vlad (who they can’t help lift the ball and turn his exit velos is mvp stats). They also showed they were willing to spend on Ohtani
Soto isn't going to fucking Toronto
Soto is going to be yankee for life or a met the blue jays won’t open up the bank for the bag Soto wants.
@@DarkSideMaceWindu😂😂😂😂😂💯🤣
Arozarena to the Cubs
Any thoughts on who royals get
Taylor Ward to the Guardians
Baltimore should make a move for skubal
I just see Detroit giving him up tbh
@rhyde Tyler Anderson, Carlos Esteves and Taylor Ward (plus salary relief to offset Anderson) for Coby Mayo and Connor Norby? Too much, not enough?
I can't believe anyone is a supporter of Phillies/Dodgers stacking more talent, at some point MLB has to start vetoing some of this crap, Phils/Dodgers are far too power stacked, they need to just be forced to make things work with their respective dream teams as is, they don't need to be allowed to secure even better players. Bichette to Dodgers and Tucker to Phillies is absolutely broken, they would elevate both squads to having a full blown monopoly on winning. F that. There are 28 other ballclubs with fanbases who deserve better than that.
Then those other clubs should use some of the luxury tax money we give them and pay some players.
@@tonyb2109 didn't Dodgers defer several contracts, thus playing the system on their luxury tax?
@@ROFLBOB24 I'm a Phillies fan.
@@tonyb2109 I mean I bet you'd really like more power, but the rest of us would not like that. :[
@@ROFLBOB24 jeez, stop crying.
As a Padres fan, I'd be okay with this lizard trade
Lizard to SD would feed families. Just needs to make sure that back is good 😂
Lesko is still an unknown, all the other pieces mentioned are depth pieces in our system. Would be more worried that we would get outbid more than anything.
No one is getting him he is injured for a while probably after trade deadline
@@stortacus Lesko is not an unknown, he has great stuff but hasn't found his command post TJ. If he can start to find the zone with any regularity he's going to rocket through the minors
Combine crochet and Robert to Orioles and then maybe do Mayo and a few other prospects. White Sox can play Mayo at either corner
As a Jay fan I would prefer outman + two prospects or one over lux + two prospects for bo. Outman has shown more potential as a every day centerfielder or outfielder then lux has as a middle infielder
Outman could be solid for them
Dude completely forgot that Cleveland exists 😂
It’s one video. Plenty more to come.
Can't blame him 😂
My fellow Tiger fans would burn me at the stake for saying this but they have to consider trading Skubal. They need offense in the worst way possible. Skubal is a Boras client which means no extension. And he's had two elbow surgeries. Its gotta at least be considered but it have to be comparable if the Sox trade Crochet in terms of return.
I’d love to see a big team like the Yankees get Mason Miller. I know they have Holmes, but he’s a free agent next year, and he also has been shaky recently.
I’ll be doing another one of these with the Yankees most likely on there
good lord buddy let's back up a bit from the mic
I like your deal for the Pirates, but I'm too afraid of giving up Termarr. I know they are awful at developing hitters but everyone thought he'd be so good when drafted. Low average scares me in the minors but still. I would try to make the deal without him if possible.
Fair!
Bregman to the Cubs just makes sense.
Belgium
I need it, but I can also see other teams as good fits. Would love the Tigers as well.
@@rhyde DET intrigues me too!
Not if the Astros are in contention
@@dnavarro972 they are nowhere near it
Your brain is smooth af if you think Basallo is going anywhere. Rutsch moves to first in 2027. And prior to that will be a DH mostly. They don’t want him catching too long
You’re saying my brain is smooth? My guy, I literally gave an alternative trade in the video with Mayo while saying “if the Orioles are hellbent on keeping Samuel Basallo, which I wouldn’t blame them at all, maybe you could do Coby Mayo” 14:25
I’ve had a lot of comments on videos, but this my friend might be one of the biggest L comments I’ve ever seen. Go to bed.
Oh big yikes on that one brother. Big mad for no reason 😂
That Phillies trade proposal you made the 1st offer that is for Kyle Tucker is perfect id make that deal our lineup would be sick🔥🔥🔥🔥 def wouldn’t trade Aiden Miller
If we're getting Tucker, I'm totally fine giving up Miller. The whole infield is blocked for him for years to come, and Tucker is well worth it. I also want to see them go hard for Mason Miller. Just imagine. Go Phils!
Tell me you hate the Yankees w/o telling me you hate the Yankees 😂😂😂😂
It’s amazing that people think this is the only video I’m going to make 😂😂😂
Mariners fan here… hoping the Mets go on a losing streak here soon so Alonzo becomes available
I value Robert, and Bryan De La Cruz over Alonso who is a free agent after this year
Buccos snagging Robert makes so much sense. Send the farm at the Sox for him
As a white sox fan I would take that Robert trade if Meuth was added. And for crochet, I would just hold on to him
I can respect that!
The cubs and Astros make no sense. They pretty much in the same situation and the Astros seem to be coming out of their slump now that the ditched the god awful Jose Abreu
Teams get hot. I’m gonna wait and see on Houston. Cubs are close to a WC spot.
As a white sox fan i wish we off load yoan, eloy, and Robert. They literally are always hurt and played a combined 70 games thos year
Blue Jays ain’t going to trade bo
If they want him, they would have to give more back
@@jordankenney6943 I hope ur right
Brewers get no love😢
There will many more videos 🫵❤️
I love your videos but you’re out of your mind with Kyle Tucker, it almost feels like a joke proposal
Thank you my friend, but to get someone like Aidan Miller for 1.5 years of Tucker especially if the Astros don’t plan on extending him would be massive.
What would you want for Tucker if you traded him?
Dont think theres a planet where those two players get you alex bregman. Just dont.
Saw the same comment about Kris Bryant a few years ago. He’s a rental. You won’t get a lot for him.
Skubal to Baltimore for Holliday and Kjerstad.
Yeeeeeeeeesssssss
Kyle Tucker isn’t going anywhere..
No Guardians trade for a SP? They would benefit greatly
Many more videos to come. If I did more trades in this it would be way too long 😂. In the next few weeks I’ll be doing my annual “One Trade for Each Team by the Deadline” video 🥳
Orioles can do adley c Sam 1b westburg 2b Gunnar ss and 3b mayo
Mariners erasure
This dude just wishing and praying the Astros break up. Its already been said they not selling.
I would actually like for the Astros to keep it going. Just being a realist. At some point they’re going to have to add to the farm considering it ranks so low. With all the injuries, a record under .500, and Tucker less than 2 years away from free agency, this would be a good year to add prospects.
If the royals don’t trade for a bullpen I’ll be very pissed
Sleeping on the Astros is a mistake even with an incompetent manager
I don’t want to sleep, but man they gotta get it going quick 😂
@@rhyde they already are man despite half our roster being on the IL
Trade TUCKER?!!!! BLASPHEMY!! Too The Phillies?!! BARF!!
Tucker to Philly
Yup, Tucker to Philly! He'll love it here, and we'll actually pay him to show how much we care. 😉

As a Pirates fan I’m all for trading Chandler & Termarr for an all star level CF with control….. Our farm system & stocked with great pitching people don’t even mention Ashcraft, Harrington, or the return of Burrows here soon lol
The 2 players that would be no-nos for me would Charles McAdoo (LOVE HIM) & Yordany De Los Santos
I agree that we have a stacked system and in my opinion, I would be more than ok to give up Harrington rather than chandler. I would also give up Ashcroft rather than chandler. Instead of Lonnie, what about someone like Liover Peguero? He is a bit older, however the defensive and offensive upside with him is crazy. Fast as can be and great power.
Yeah for injury riddled Robert no way Termar/Chandler maybe Ashcraft or something like Solometo aswell but maybe Jazz or McMahon maybe easier then giving up the farm for Robert
@@GorbombZombay Definitely wouldn’t call him injury prone he played 145 games last year & in 2022 would’ve easily of played 125+ if not for a freak wrist/hand injury that could happen to literally anyone……. The hip injury is the only thing that would give me pause
