Would you expect to see Corbin Burnes on this list?
No, because he's only got a few months of team control left.
Burnes has more trade value than Santander does.
This year has < 30 ABs but is OPS vs LH is under .600. Last year he had the same amount of ABs and was .798. But that was heavily field by his SLG. That said, it’s hard to judge with the SSS of ABs.
I think we see things happen that haven’t happened in the past due to the extra WC spot and so many teams involved in the playoff race.
Whether or not that happens this year or not, I think these contender/contender deals are going to be more prevalent long term.
Mounty to Seattle and Mullins to Philly would be great.
That said, if the Os would trade Mounty, I would think it would be an NL team.
Luzardo is a long term move for me but he should also be pitching by the end of August and he will be a fresh arm with big upside if he’s ready to go. He would not be my only SP acquisition.
I think Mayo comes up on 9/1 when rosters expand from 26 to 28. His floor with the MLB team will be DH vs LHP in the playoffs, with a chance to beat out O’Hearn/Mountcastle for ABs at DH full time as his ceiling.
I don’t think we see him much in the field this season.
That also leaves him in line to be AL ROY eligible in 2025.
