Season Super Game Thread

ESPN did a prospect report. Surprise "breakout" Marlins prospect. http://www.espn.com/mlb/insider/stor...s-all-30-teams

Miami Marlins: SS Jose Devers. I'm at odds with some of my scouting contacts regarding Devers, whom the Marlins acquired from the Yankees as part of the Giancarlo Stanton trade. Industry opinions often have Devers pegged as a fringe regular due to his lack of physicality and perceived power potential, but this is an 18-year-old striking out just 13 percent of the time in full-season ball, and the scouting reports about his bat-to-ball skills support that performance. If Devers is a plus runner who stays on the middle infield and has a plus or better bat, he doesn't need to hit for much power to be a valuable regular. I'm buying.

I don't know about desperate, but he's an ideal bench player for a contender. (So is Rojas.) Extremely positive bench guys for a contender.

I think Dietrich can net in a best case scenario a Phelps type package of a lot of projects and maybe someone works out, maybe with someone like Merandy/Gallen as the best player in the deal. I think that would be a good result and is realistic.

Or, tremendous throw in with Realmuto to make sure you get that 1 really awesome guy. That's where I think Dietrich really shines. Not worth enough to get a "B+" prospect on his own, but lop him into a package with JT and get a big big name.

The farm is getting deeper. The pitchers are cumulatively all performing well and there is reasonable hope with hitters throughout the system, even if some are underperforming. Likewise, looks like they have a few longterm pieces in Anderson, Ca. Smith, Steckenrider, Wittgren, etc.

It's time to get 1-2 higher value assets in these trades, especially with JT and Barraclough. Get the single best player you can, as they have a lot of normal dudes coming fast. They need 1-2 better guys versus an upgraded 3rd and 4th player in a deal.

Hard to not want a FV60 catcher. I think Mejia is a centerpiece of Realmuto easily and worth whatever to turn an elite catcher into potentially the next elite catcher.

If we trade all 3, I think we should trade them in separate deals.

Yeah, the previous group would constantly bundle (usually in order to save salary). It'd be nice to see that not continue. That's not to say you can't bundle for a better return, but it has to be much better.

Yep we are linked to Sandy Gaston and reports are deal around 1 mil. Osiel Rodriguez(other Cuban P) going to NYY according to BA

BA has an article about the guys linked to Miami out Today But NO CLUE since they make u pay for it ALL now(Would love to hear all the guys if anyone has access)


Marlins system is NOT in the bottom 3rd but whatever

I mentioned few weeks ago about LAA looking at our guys. Well looks like we are scouting their system hard and don't be surprised if we do something with them

They like Urena/Straily/Chen/Ziegler and Bearclaw. DOUBTFUL on Chen cause of $$$

Guys we like are Jahmai Jones/Brandon Marsh/Luis Rengifo Pitchers-Luis Pena/Jose Suarez/Jesus Castillo and Paredes

Inside source tells me the Sandy Gaston thing is happening which is cool. Quite a change from previous ownership.

Maybe i havent been paying close enough attention, but how in the hell did Martin Prado get healed so quickly? He's starting a rehab stint with Jupiter tonight and I thought his injury was at the very least season ending.

[Nick]

Is Realmuto injured?

Is Realmuto injured?

Took a foul-tip off the hand on Sunday. He’s day-to-day.

Wow, Lopez came out of his start early tonight and is being called up to start this weekend according to Mish. Talk about rising fast. Excited to see if he can be the a Henderson Alvarez type guy for us except for the part where he gets injured.

Oh wow. That's interesting.

[fish16]

Oh wow. That's interesting.

Remains to be seen how long he's up here though as Straily is just on suspension and not injured like Urena and Smith. Our pitching is in complete disarray right now and it will be interesting to see what they do the next 2-3 weeks.

Morosi said before the game.

Milwaukee is VERY interested in DD.

I would take one of their toolsy OF(Grisham/Lutz) and an arm like Diplan/Mederios for DD however the market is pretty big for him so

[tjfla]

Also not sure if mentioned but Martin Prado is on Rehab in Jupiter

If they got a FV50 hitter (both are recent 1st rounders) and a FV45 arm for Dietrich, that would be a tremendous result. Maybe eyes getting a little big for just DD.

Ya its a little high but they have 4 toolsy OF-Phillips,Ray,Grisham,Lutz I mentioned the 2 youngest and 4 arms-Diplan,Mederios,Zack Brown,Peralta(They won't trade him). I also like Mario Feliciano (young C)

I expect other teams to be in on him. Just was interesting how Morosi said Milwaukee was VERY interested like he been hearing stuff

Probably could use Holaday as well

Sandy and Lopez both pitching this weekend against the mets
