Great article. Agree with the conclusion and all the other comments. I’m on the fence about giving up Fuentes or AJSS for a rental. Getting a rental primarily in anticipation of the playoffs carries so much risk given the randomness of a short series.

Oh, I'm not giving up either guy for a rental, no. I don't think they would give up Fuentes for anybody who's actually available right now

Great analysis. IF AA can swing a deal for a TOP level SP, I'm ok with accepting the pain of losing any of the prospects you mentioned. What I fear is losing young talent for a mid-level guy. Also, I can see any team getting close to a deal with AA demanding Fuentes. Everyone seems to think Fuentes' future is as an SP - I like to think he could be a great Closer, maybe in '28

A great article to point the client to "surplus": not something we think of the Braves having when you're in the fishbowl with them. Will a #2 SP be available this week for some combination of the currency listed?

Watch out for this : Tate has been promoted.

Lodise has been promoted.

Expect Manuel Campos to be promoted to

Augusta.

I got confirmation that Campos is going to Augusta, yeah

Now Campos can get some much deserved attention as a legitimate Prospect. Maybe even Top 30.
