That's asking for too much unless they also want Tejada in the deal. A Kemp/LaRoche duo would be a very good core of a trade for Bedard.

I'd be fine with Billingsly/Kershaw, Kemp, Broxton, but I'd love to add Tejada and expand it with LaRoche and Hu like bigbird was suggesitng the other day. Maybe they're more desparete to have someone take back Pierre now?

Billingsly because he's ML ready now and could probably be an ace next season. But I'd be thrilled with either. I can't see a deal with the Dodgers without 1 of them though.

Agreed on both points.

That being said, either one plus Kemp and LaRoche is an absolute no-brainer.

which do you prefer?

Billingsley because he was/is just as highly regarded, but is already producing at a very high level in the majors. But if the Dodgers also feel that way, I certainly wouldn't have a problem taking Kershaw. Either one would be great to get.

I feel the same way, but I think we'll be extremely lucky to get either.

Yeah, that deal BB mentioned was spectacular, basically everyone on here thought it was great for us, and most thought it was too much for the Dodgers to give up. That should tell you that it's not fair for them. But anything is possible, I just wouldn't hold out for something that great.

Even the trade you say you'd be fine with is over the top imo. One of Billingsley/Kershaw/Kemp, LaRoche, and Hu/Elbert/McDonald would be fair. Would obviously push for more, and maybe we could get two of those last 3 players, or a guy like Meloan or Young added, but I'd take what I just laid out if no one else beat it.

      1:2 is good.  Elite is a player like Arraez who is 1+:1.

      Was reading Wiggins write up on ESPN. He appears to be more of a home run threat than Koolaid. He had a pick 6 each of the last 2 years.

      Starting point has changed.  Given the fact he has approx 1/7th of his season in the books at 1.139, to OPS just .780 for the season, he'd have to drop off to under .730 the rest of the way.  That sort of drop off wouldn't be acceptable to me. I'd like him to OPS .800 the rest of the way for roughly .850 for the season.  The more they use him in a platoon role, the better I think that number might be.

      Can I ask how you timed it vs the DVR?  Did you use a stopwatch or count click with pause/FF, or something else?

      Who is "selling" this year?

      By Philip · Posted

      I can’t fathom why anyone would want a Tanner Scott return. In 10 innings, he is 0-4 with a 1.78 whip. He was maddening before, and now he’s older. But I wonder if the Red Sox would part with Justin Slaten? He’s been pretty outstanding. Yeah, only 8 innings, but we hired Yohan Ramirez, and he’s been a catastrophe in 10. Yes, I know he’s a rule 5, and the Bosox are in the East. And their pitching is pretty thin, too. But they know they aren’t going anywhere in this division, and they might think getting a good return for a Free Rule 5 guy might be worthwhile.

      This draft unfolded weirdly.  First with the *nix guys getting taken early and then how no defensive players got taken all draft, and then a bunch of teams reaching for OTs.  I'm pretty happy with how the draft unfolded because I think we got a player that I expected to be gone by the teens or early 20s.  I don't know what we're doing with our OL but hopefully we can maybe trade up from 62 to pick someone up.
