Would you trade Kjerstad for an elite controlled reliever?

Guys, we are not getting Miller. It makes absolutely zero sense for Oakland to trade him. 

And if they do it won’t be for major league ready talent.

If you can get an elite Andrew Miller type like the O's did years ago?  Then yes.

 

But relievers these days are so up and down year to year that it would have to be someone like him for me to pull the trigger.

Kjerstad wouldn't even be enough for Miller at this point.  That dude is a stud and is team controlled for 6 years.  It would probably take Basallo or Mayo at this point. 

For what it's worth, BaseballTradeValues says that Miller for Kjerstad is basically a fair trade. (Kjerstad 27.5M surplus value, Miller 25.6M).

Doesn't mean the A's would do that deal, although they're kidding themselves if they think they're getting Basallo (58.6M) or Mayo (43.7M) for Miller.
