The YouTube guy using the Trade simulator suggested Ryan Mountcastle and DL Hall for Corbin Burnes. That could save Mayo but it also guts our middle of the batting order and takes away from our defensive potential (Mountcastle was a gold glove finalist) at First Base. And we need left handers like Hall and Means. I'd rather trade a right hander but I don't know who would have enough value to the Brewers. I do think Norby and Urias might be somewhat interesting to them.

I guess this is all a fruitless exercise anyway based on what Roch just posted.

I'd gladly trade Mountcastle in such a deal.  DL Hall is a bit harder to swallow trading for me as when he's on, he can be dominating.  I'm really expecting him to improve this year and shore up the bullpen.  I'd probably do the trade, but I'd rather trade from our position depth than from pitching.  If they'd take Mountcastle, Norby and Urias, sign me up.
