So now I’m playing with the baseballtradevalues.com values.

Mullins (66.2) + Santander (9.9) = $76.1 mm.

Lopez (57.1) + Meyer (22.2) + Anderson (11.5) = $90.8 mm

Good trade for us, bad for the Marlins, per these valuations (which, needless to say, aren’t gospel).   
 

Bad trade?  I don’t think so, even by those numbers.

Lopez has yet to pitch more than 100ish innings and Meyer is still an unknown.  
 

14 million of production is less than 2 wins.  That’s over the course of a career.  I don’t think that’s a bad trade by any means.


The Marlins are likely winning the trade early and losing it late.  That’s the way I would view it and I think most teams would view those types of deals the same way.

I keep seeing this proposal and I love it.  Meyer is the guy I really wanted in 2020 (not Martin).  I'd very much do it... and I'm one the few Santander fans around here.

Calm down. You’re going to have a heart attack over Odor. It’s ok. Just think, Alex Cobb just got 2/20. Think about that. 

What?  Do you even know what you are talking about at this point?  
 

This post literally has nothing to do with anything being said here.

And btw, that’s a good contract for the Giants.

To be fair he is having a heart attack over Hays because apparently trading Mullins is the only possible good idea. I've stopped responding directly as doing so leads nowhere.

To be fair, this is a stupid post.

I was saying that the website you referenced has zero credibility and the idea that Hays could fetch Meyer is laughable.

Why would the sons not have to pay the inheritance tax? It is my understanding that only spouse to spouse inheritance is tax-free.

I'm not 100% sure, but if they sold now while Peter Angelos is alive, they would have to pay capital gains tax on the sale. Angelos' group bought the team for $173 million in 1993. The Royals just sold for $1 billion in 2019. So, assuming the O's sell for about that, they're looking at a big tax bill.

If they wait until after Peter Angelos passes on, they'd avoid the capital gains tax since tax laws would assess the club at it's current fair market value.

It all seems pretty complicated, here's an article from ESPN about it:

    • Very weak.  OTOH, there's still a possibility that Jackson Merrill won't win in the NL.  Who didn't want Cowser to have had that rookie season?
    • Who’d a thunk it? There’s a chance? Almost like it’s a long season. Now if only that Mayo guy would do something.
    • Jeez, it really was a welcome game tonight.  I had a good buzz going...   Now I have to factor in your chronic angst.  Thanks man.
    • If we enter the Yankees series down by three games, we have a mathematical chance. However, we are going to have to intentionally walk Judge and Soto every single AB. The athletics did us no favors tonight.  Still four games out..
    • I know. I'm a hand wringer and a whiner when it comes to this team. I sometimes annoy myself with all this baseball nonsense. But really deep down,I'm still the 8 year old who lived and died with every Oriole game. Still. Im that kid. So when this team was really horrible like for most of the second half, it almost made me nauseous just to watch them lose in all kinds of ways. Then all those injuries in a wave. I really felt they weren't going to make the postseason at all. But baseball is a crazy game, and a light switch can be turned on in an instant. Maybe that Santander walk off HR on Thursday threw a switch. Because Friday night, this was a different team. They still strike out a lot, and Burnes was brilliant, but I feel maybe something is moving. Seeing Coluombe come in and strike two batters out, and Webb, not as good, but good enough with a big lead...and to see Cowser and McCann blast two, and Tony again with a HR...It got my juices flowing. Look, maybe they wont play well this weekend, maybe they will. And then the dreaded Yankees might break our hearts next week.But why think that way now.?Urias is coming, then Westburg, then maybe Mounty, and even possibly Grayson at the end . If we can somehow put the pieces together and get our mojo back, and have the players contribute, we maybe, just maybe, might have a little ray of hope.I still think this roster is talented when all our pieces are together, and as good as anyone when we are playing well. So, I'm not asking for a miracle. I'm just asking for a chance to see this team with most of the pieces together again, and compete.Maybe it's even a long shot, but I am still that 8 year old living and dying for a chance to see my boys make me proud. And these are my boys.
    • Velocity was 1.5-2mph down across the board. Movement was good, especially the sweeper. The fastballs worry me at that velocity though... not sure he should be immediately high leverage in the way he used to be.
    • Nicely done. Lol. Yes I remember that with Minnesota.
