That's speculation.

Like trading Groome, Devers & Travis for Quintana?

Had we still had Espi, Margot, Guerra, Allen & Asuaje then maybe we could have come up with a package and still had some decent farm pieces leftover.

You have F'n Chris Sale.....moon lol... Unless DD gets a superstar in a trade, I don't trust him dealing any of the good prospects which they have left. It also will be interesting without Sale in Chicago how will Q handle being the ace by himself... It's the bullpen. Show me a great pitching staff and pen, I'll show you a great manager.

The easy part is trading great prospects and getting established stars.
The easy part is throwing money at free agents and see if they take it.

The toughest part is building a bullpen on the cheap.
The toughest part drafting the right players when it's time for the pick.

For the record, I am not for trading any more top prospects at this time.

My scenario was a "what if" we'd tried one past trade instead of two others.

Terrible strikeout rate but still effective. A good depth piece.
