Post the dumbest or best Skubal trade ideas here

I’ll start with one of the dumbest I read on X:

Yankees get Skubal

Tigers get George Lombard Jr. Hit .215 in AA at age 20.

Best realistic option:

To the Mets for Jonah Tong, Jett Williams and two lottery tickets that Steve Cohen spent a ton of cash on in Ehan Pena ans Yovanny Rodriguez.

Maybe that’s unrealistic though. Is No 3, No. 4, No. 10 and no. 30 prospect too much? Would Pena be totally off limits?

Saw this one.

Personally, any package from the Mets not including Nolan McLean is disappointing.

Tigers get:

  1. Andrew Painter #16 overall prospect. RHP
  2. Justin Crawford. Carl Crawfords son. OF
  3. Alec Bohm 3rd baseman.

I’d want more than that, and they won’t give that much.

I’d take more, but 2 top 50 prospects and a good young MLB 3rd baseman seems reasonable.

Average wise, Bohm would have been the best hitter on the team this year with a .280 average, and 15 homeruns to boot. He also has room to grow.

also, I don’t believe that Skubal is off the table for Philly, and that they wouldn’t give this much. I’ve seen Dombrowski work first hand for far too long.

As a Reds fan, I’d happily throw you cash considerations AND a player to be named later.

Trading Skubal is a dumb idea

Team is built to win now. He is the guy you trade FOR when you are in the window. If they have a lousy first half then sure. Knock yourself out.

Thats true, but tigers aren’t winning with this roster

Is the gap between he and Tong that wide?

I’d really try and pry away Pena. His bat is supposed to be rare.

I wouldn’t trade him at all

If it did happen I would want a godfather offer and then some where a team goes that is highway robbery

Nvm

No way I take less than McClean and Benge +. This kind of trade assumes a big extension so it’s not a rental.
