Sell: Trade Richards and Perez to save money, not for any return they might get. Pay some of their contracts. Buy: Trade for a better SPer than the 2 we trade away and maybe a RPer and or 1Bman. Try to avoid getting 2-3 rentals. Call it a day.

Exactly. Scherzer replaces Richards. Sale replaces Perez.
-
I’m hoping the Yanks go all out, seriously! I’m watching them more than what the Sox do.
-
Who gets sent down from the rotation once Sale is back?

We may see Perez sent to the pen later. Eovaldi Sale ERod Trade Pivetta Houck Perez Richards -
His career BB/9 is 2.4. It’s 2.1, this year, but I know control means a different thing to you.
-
I’d prefer An older pitcher for 2-3 years than redoing a Price type deal. We could just wait until winter and sign Greinke, Verlander or Scherzer.
-
They will spend, spend, spend, again.
-
Ditto, here.
-
Berrios has 1.3 years of control. (I thought it was longer.) He has a 3.76 ERA over the last 5 years. (116 ERA+) 9.1 K/9 2.7 BB/9 3.48, this year/ 1.044 WHIP (.641 OPS Against)
-
Except Mrs. MVP.
-
I'd give Casas or Downs + Groome.
-
My feeling for Casas and Downs have dipped, this year, but I am not for trading our top 7-8 guys for any rental.
-
The "rest of the season" is pretty specific, and would not be mentioned, if they paid "the rest of the way."
-
I'm liking Bello more and more.
-
He is a FA after 2021, along with ERod, Marwin, Santana, Workman and maybe JD, if he opts out. (Richards and Perez have options.)
-
We could probably trade him for nothing, if we pay almost his full salary (Salary- min wage - $100K or more). Or, we add someone like Potts and get a prospect not needing rule 5 protection.
-
I heard they pay Gallo for 2021 not 2022.

I realize Rizzo is available, plays great D and has a name all of us know and have rather high feelings for, but he is not that same Rizzo as a few years back. He would still be an upgrade over Dalbec- almost certainly, but at what cost for a rental? He'll be an upgrade on OBP, too, but here is his line from 2020-2021. 619 PAs .238 BA .344 OBP .433 SLG .778 OPS 25 HRs & 64 RBI 97 Ks Dalbec 376 PAs .225 BA .282 OBP .438 SLG (higher than Rizzo's) .720 OPS 18 HRs & 52 RBI 147 K's (Projected to 620 PAs: 32 HRs, 90 RBI, 165 K's) Since we don't know if Dalbec is ever going to "wake up," we can probably assume Rizzo will be an upgrade, but what are the chances Rizzo does better than his recent numbers or continues his decline? I'd rather get Carlos Santana for 1.3 years and a better OBP: Last 2 seasons 679 PAs .221 BA .348 OBP .384 SLG .732 OPS 25 HRS & 85 RBI 108 K's (He ad a .911 OPS in 2018.)
-
If nobody wants him for a bit more than min salary, then, yes. I'd be okay with that, but I doubt it happens. He still might be better than Andriese and Workman, and seems to do pretty well for the first inning or two, so maybe a relief role might be worth a try, first.
-
This year or next? Ottavino isn't going anywhere, and is a FA after this year. Others are FAs, too.
-
I think they might... hopefully, not from us.
-
I think Bloom will avoid rentals, unless the return cost is someone he thinks wasn't going to be on the roster, next year. He may try to trade for a controlled player that will be part of the longer term outlook as well as 2021. This will be tricky, because the return will be much more, if the guy is any good.
-
This why I think we should trade Richards plus almost the entire remaining salary for nothing. Maybe throw in Potts, Chavis or Potts and get a far-away prospect that does not need rule 5 protection, this winter.
-
Is it me, or does it seem like there are more trades being made before the actual day of the deadline in a long time?
