Probably not, as to your question. That’s 3 top ten picks in our system and Kjerstad is top 25 on many sites. You think they can do better? -
I’d rather we get a buy low candidate or 2 at the deadline like Trevor Rogers and make a meaningful trade in the offseason when the leverage is less balance towards the seller. -
Ok, I’m just curious why? Fedde is signed at 7.5M for next year and has been a very solid #2-#3 type starter this year. McDermott is most likely a reliever. Chace has talent but has control issues as well. Bradfield needs to hit. Is Bradfield the biggest deterrent or just the whole thing?

If the arm is an issue then CF makes less sense than 2B, given defense is such a priority. Of if CF is such a priority need for us, then just trade him as a 2B for someone else's star young CFer. -
I disagree on Means. I think it was perfectly reasonable to expect that by the end of the season and in the playoffs we would have a good John Means in the top 3 of our rotation. Peak Means? I don't know about that. But certainly a servicable Means. While there are pitchers that have had two Tommy John's, it is very rare that the second one pops up as quickly as his did. Most are aeparated by years. We knew at the start of the year that he was behind in prep for the season, and certainly it was reasonable to expect that we might not have him for much of the first 2-3 months of the season. But anticipating a 2nd Tommy John? I don't think so. -

I think his upside in pay would be higher as a CFer vs second base but that’s purely speculative on my part. I just think CF makes more sense for us because of the personnel we have. -

If he was the sort of hitter that Adley was last year, that would still have huge value.
