Here is the package I'd want from the Indians. 

Tristan Mackenzie - he'd immediately be our best pitching prospect.

Yandy Diaz - Immediate replacement for Hardy (with Manny moving to SS)

Shane Bieber - polished arm, with good curveball and amazing control, he's moving fast and could be ready next year.

Logan Ice - solid catcher prospect  with a good approach at the plate who has surprised by showing  more power this year

And get them to take O'Day too.

Mackenzie and Diaz would be great pulls.

Would you say we gave up nothing if we gave up Liranzo, Gassaway and Dietz for a rental reliever? 

More like Liranzo, Crichton, and a righty sidearm reliever

That is not really the comparision though.  It would be more along the lines of Liranzo, Means and Hess.

Dan is going to come through for us. Buckle up boys! It is going to be a wild ride.

I would say yes to that deal and I would root for Britton and Miller in the playoffs.

Four and Five.

Would a Britton trade be potentially the biggest trade the O's have made since Bedard for Adam Jones and Tillman?

Or is it more like Koji for Davis and Tommy Hunter?

It would be the biggest since Bedard. Davis and Hunter wasn't considered much of a return at the time, of course it turned out really well for us.

I'd say closer to the Bedard deal. At the time, Bedard was a great SP. Koji was a solid BP arm, but nowhere near Britton's level. Hopefully, we can get an Adam Jones caliber player in a Britton deal.

Both?     We aren't going to get nearly the return we got for Bedard, but we should get a somewhat bigger return than the Koji trade, in terms of expected value at the time of the deal.

I always wonder how these trade talks go.  How many times do the gm's call one another and go back and fourth.

They aren't trading him, he's in the conversation for best prospect in baseball. I've watched him play a lot this year, he's the real deal.

He looked pretty good at Bowie yesterday, even if the results weren't stellar.
