Indians Offseason
I think Cleveland still wants to contend while shedding payroll. Their division is weak and they have a chance to have a very quick turnaround if they do it the right way. Here are some moves i can see.
CLE- Mike Soroka, Touki Toussaint, Isranel Wilson
ATL- Corey Kluber
The Braves needs an ACE and they have a very deep farm of pitching prospects.
CLE- Kyle Tucker, Riley Ferrell, Jeremy Pena
HOU- Carlos Carrasco
After losing McCullers for the season, i can see HOU going after a top piece. They have to capitalize on the fact that Correa and Springer are so cheap right now.
CLE- Kyle Seager
SEA- Luis Oviedo, Tyler Freeman
Seager is the perfect stop-gap until Nolan Jones in ready. He also provides LH power to the lineup.
C- Yan Gomes
1B- Yonder Alonso
2B- Jose Ramirez
3B- Kyle Seager
SS- Francisco Lindor
LF- Bradley Zimmer
CF- Jason Kipnis
RF- Kyle Tucker
DH- Edwin Encarnacion
SP- Trevor Bauer
SP- Mike Clevinger
SP- Shane Bieber
SP- Mike Soroka
SP- Touki Toussaint
SU- Adam Cimber
CL- Brad Hand
Cleveland would have lowered its payroll by $40 million and still remain the favorite in the Central.

Sign SP Matt Harvey 1 year $10 million
Bounce back candidate in pitchers park

Bring back Gray to where he was successful all those years.
C- Martin Maldonado
1B- Matt Olson

3B- Matt Chapman
SS- Marcus Semien
LF- Kris Davis

They are trying to trade Santana so they can move Hoskins back to 1B. And they also placed Bour on waivers. So Hoskins at 1B and Williams at LF?

1.) 13 Oct 2018 04:33:05
wait, in your post below you have the mets buying this winter and this one is the complete opposite, what do you really want them to do?
2.) 15 Oct 2018 02:21:46
They aren't getting Ryan McMahon for one year of Zack Wheeler.
3.) 18 Oct 2018 14:13:47
No chance Houston does that.
4.) 05 Nov 2018 16:46:27
I know you posted this before the GM hire, but they're not selling now. Plus, Houston can't afford all of these guys in 2 years so they're going to need to hold onto the stud prospects they have so they can let some of the expensive players go.

SS- Amed Rosario
SP- Jacob deGrom
SP- Noah Syndergaard

SU- Robert Gsellman
CL- Andrew Miller
1.) 12 Oct 2018 19:03:43
That trade for Realmuto might be more laughable than anything bwright has suggested.
It's going to take a top 20 prospect to land Realmuto, who has turned himself into the best catcher in the majors.
2.) 12 Oct 2018 19:48:18
Two top 100 prospects, and a young C with some pop. I disagree its "laughable" but it may take a little more. I think it would be centered around those two players and then Nido can become one to two more mid level prospects.
3.) 12 Oct 2018 20:49:57
No, it's laughable.
For one, consider the fact the Mets and Marlins are in the same division. The Marlins aren't going to just let the Mets have him.
So consider that your return is already pathetically light for any team, and then add a premium for it being within the division.
Gimenez would need to be the second, or even third best player in that package. And the Mets don't have much else to offer.
4.) 05 Nov 2018 16:43:05
It would take Rosario plus for Realmuto. He's arguable the best C in the game. Plus it's in division, as stated above, so that drives up the price even more.

This is okay, but why is the roster for 2019? They'd likely add at least someone next offseason.

1.) 18 Dec 2017 15:50:30
Tyler Chatwood would be their fifth starter, not Montgomery.
2.) 18 Dec 2017 21:00:38
As I said on your rumors post, no to the Machado trade.
3.) 20 Dec 2017 23:06:46
Arrieta is worth more than 3yr $60Mil.
12 Oct 2018 19:51:05
I agree next year they would not win more than 80, but the point of the moves are for the next 2-4 years. Mejia, Urias, Tatis, Renfroe, and Gore (still a year away) all have All-star potential. Mix that in with Hosmer, Myers and Kuechel and you have a very good team for 2-4 years.

LeoCTallon3 you should really understand the price for Machado before posting stupid comments like "Again with that godawful Machado trade? " The offer the Cubs made today was Russell, Almora, Montgomery (12Up. com), which is right in line with this offer. If you think BAL is going to sell him for any less, you're mistaking.
26 Jul 2017 17:12:30
Reed is a closer which holds much more value. And over the past two years, he has been very consistent. Reed is better than Swarzak and will definitely bring back more.
26 Jul 2017 16:46:19
If they're getting both Gray and Alonso, I can see them getting back both. Either way, the Yankees are tearing down a good farm for some mediocre players. Not sure I agree. Gray is too inconsistent for my liking.
