Dusty will lose his GD mind, but I’d deal Meyers for any decent starting pitcher. I think they have enough outfielders in the minors + Singleton to figure out another bat. 
 

That said Bregs is only contract until 2024 and Altuve through 2025, so they might want to take a bigger swing. And Crane likes grand, aggressive moves and just fired a guy for being too conservative.

Who's going to trade a decent starting pitcher for Meyers?

To get a starter better than the rookies we've been trotting out there, it would take Meyers plus others....and Meyers wouldn't be the main asset we would lose.

We could get a no. 3 on a bad team for Meyers, right?

Expand  

A number 3 starter on a bad team? Would that be an upgrade over what we've gotten from France, Blanco, Bielak, etc?

Even if it would be an improvement, the trade market has become tougher since the playoffs expanded. Someone else would probably offer more.

Remember, we have Montero to deal too. Lulz.

If you believe that the values on that Trade Simulator website are close to reality, Meyers valued at 17-18 should bring back Hader and Snell from the Padres who are valued at 15+ combined. Both are rentals but I would do that before I hung up the phone and throw in some Texas BBQ and Shiner beer.

If the Padres only trade offer was Meyers for those 2 yeah, they probably ought to do that imo. If they were rational. Alas, that wouldn’t be their only offer. 
their catching is actually worse than maldy by far with the bay (how does a 450 ops and 17! OPS+ sound), CF isn’t awesome for the. And they are a mess at DH. I they are awesome at the corner Of spots and all over the IF. I would be fine offering them Lee and Meyers for those two. That would be a commitment to play Diaz 120G next year at catcher and you’d go find an old guy to be the play once every 5 games guy. An old guy not named maldonado to clean the slate for Diaz. 
don’t know if that would get it done. I’d also throw in one of our 2nd tier OF’ers. Maybe they’d like Leon. He has bigtime upside. He’s sort of blocked by Chas and less than Gilbert at CF which is why they’ve been looking for a position for him at 2B.

Yes I was going to say all of this also. San Diego second rated prospect is a catcher slated to debut in 2028. They are so bad at catcher they recycled Gary Sanchez. If they become sellers there is no doubt to me that they would have interest in a package that included Lee

Francisco Alvarez is the hottest thing since sliced bread at catcher according to MLB.

Alvarez 67GP 45hits 8 2B 16HR .216 0.7WAR  108 OPS+

Diaz  54GP 45hits 12 2B 10HR .260 1.1WAR 110 OPS+
 

One is a burgeoning superstar, one plays behind Maldy.

Diaz war if exclusively at catcher would be over 2 right now.

9 year old wants some autographs and we are going tonight.

What is the best way to do this?

buy early access tickets from STH or look for field pass from sth

there are two big Astro ticket groups on fb. I only buy from these groups, no fees and very fair prices

Could just be a separate one for one move for over the weekend to shore up pitching in that series. Paredes? Someone else on the 40 man that’s stretched out to throw 3 or 4 if a game goes sideways?  

Expand  

Paredes looked great last night in Round Rock. One very efficient inning.

I already have tickets. There is an additional thing to buy?

This rumor from last year is stirring up again, the Yankees have a lot of interest in chas McCormick 

 

Expand  

They should have interest; he’s an extremely valuable player when you factor in his production, team control and cost. We’re just too dumb to play him every day.
