How much money is Bellinger gonna get?

A lot. I think he's a Boras guy too.

Just a guess, but I’d say something similar to the 6/$150 mm that George Springer got.  Springer was the slightly more accomplished player, but also 3 years older.   

Springer: 30 years old, 795 games, 131 OPS+, 27.8 rWAR

Bellinger: 27 years old, 875 games, 120 OPS+, 22.0 rWAR

If we are trying to get a hitter, I'd definitely look at a trade. The options in FA kinda suck. There are some quality options for SP/RP/CL. After this past offseason, I'm not really sure what Elias would be allowed to spend though.

Hector Neris and either Jordan Montgomery or Blake Snell would be my choices.  

I think Montgomery would be a great fit here, but he's likely to get a huge deal from someone.

There are a billion ways Elias could go, honestly. There are lots of options. 

Spending that much on an injury prone guy with tons of upside may not be realistic. I'm not 100% sure how much value Mullins has, either.

As much as it can be a shut-down bullpen is mandatory.  Not saying that I wouldn't like it but everything else is gravy.  My guess is that we will continue the $10M starter trend.
