    I wonder what we'd have to give up to get Carlos Carrasco.

      I don't think the Marlins have the position player prospects to get him.

        If dealing with the Indians I wonder if there would be any way to pry Trevor Bauer.

        I'd still love a deal with the Twins that brought back Max Kepler.

          I hope we trade Haren to the Dodgers for Austin Barnes.

                I don't think it would be a dream. If Carrasco is available, Bauer is probably available too. Carrasco is a better pitcher than Bauer.

                  I'd rather have Bauer, honestly. 4 years younger, Bauer is better at 24 than Carrasco was at 24, Carrasco is owed $19 million over the next 3 years, etc.

                    Carrasco's contract is a good thing. He's an absolute bargain at that price.

                      I'd still rather have the club control 24 year old than the 29 year old.

                        I'd rather Carrasco. He's King significantly more and BBing significantly less than Bauer and has been producing at that level for over a year. He's already signed to a good contract and that's a big plus considering how common our FO does that. Bauer also hasn't performed at a better level than what is already on the roster next year. He has more upside but it's results that are needed.

                          Well this isn't remotely close to being true.

                            I also said he has more upside than the current options but you seemed to ignore that.

                            He'd the same ERA/FIP group as Koehler and Phelps for the past two years. We don't need to acquire another guy who hasn't develop yet and gets costly in a year. He's not going to come at a price where it makes sense.

                              His WAR this year is equal to Haren, Phelps, Koehler, Urena, and Nicolino combined.

                                Where are you pulling numbers from because I'm beginning to think you can't add.

                                I'm not saying I wouldn't rather have him in the rotation than those guys, but he isn't going to come cheap and he's not producing at the level that the team needs next year. So either you have to be certain he makes that jump (totally possible that he does but just as likely he doesn't). This organization needs to maximize production next year for their trade assets that would be required to get Hauer (or at get a future third baseman lock).
