The Official 2022 MLB Trade Deadline Thread

Phillies are apparently desperate for outfield defense. Fans and a few writers are talking about Marsh to help with Schwarber and Castellanos. What would a Syndergaard/Marsh package bring back? Marsh is still 24. Has value, despite what experts here think.

Who will be the one guy traded today that no one sees coming?  I will guess Cody Belinger Chad Wallach.

Preller has huge nuts.  Transactions are fun.  Padre fans must be going berserk.

Padres will get Tatis back too. Damn

[Stradling]

So if it is Marsh and Syndergaard, what would that bring us back?  Who do they have that fits our needs?  Would it be someone like Alex Bohm?  Or do they have a catcher?  

[T.G.]

It'd be incredibly funny if Hosmer said no.

Bryce Harper.

Just to PO Lou.

It sure would be funny but highly unlikely.  Boras represents everyone in this trade that has value so im sure its already been discussed and approved by Hosmer.

[Vlad27Trout27]

yeah, sounds like this is a fleece for the padres. 

 

[T.G.]

Boras is a baller.

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

Padres fleeced them bad. Wow. How did they get out of Hosmer? Nice for SD. Hope they win it all.

Which would make Hosmer saying "no" even funnier. Even if it is unlikely

[Dtwncbad]

Hosmer was really the guy they brought to San Diego to show the fans they were serious about putting together a real contender, and now he is the guy getting shoved out the door when they are on the brink.

This is a great deal for both teams.
Nats were not going to sign Soto and got an absolute haul, Hosmer aside, but i guess you still need to field a team after all
This is what makes the hot stove great.

Im sitting here imagining the haul we could get if we were actually smart enough to take advantage, we could legit do the bulk of a rebuild in one trade.  We have the golden ticket in the perfect time and place.  But were just not that smart as an organization.

Marsh still holds good value so i'd be surprised what a return would look like considering we have no outfield. 

No Upton, no Trout and now Marsh? Something doesn't make any sense.

He's getting paid well.  He has a ring.  I don't feel bad for him.

He and KD would have made a great team.

[Angelsjunky]

The prospects involved in the Soto trade:

CJ Abrams 60 FV (#11 overall)

Robert Hassell 50 FV (#41 overall)

James Wood 50 FV (#66 overall)

MacKenzie Gore was 50 FV (would be top 100)

Jarlin Susana 40+ FV

So basically four top 100 prospects, one of whom is basically top 10.

As I said before, this represents the upper limit to an Ohtani trade. Note that the Padres also unloaded Eric Hosmer, who is due 3/$39M in 2023-25, plus another $7M or so this year, and got Josh Bell, who is a free agent after this year.
