For Betts (not including the Twins part of the deal)

Connor Wong (Langeliers has higher value for sure )
Jeter Downs (Waters is a tad higher than Downs on consensus prospect boards)
Alex Verdugo (Verdugo has more value than Riley but Riley was highly ranked)

Then you throw in a borderline top 100 pitching prospect in Davidson. For a guy coming off a 102 OPS+ season and has one year left in a tanked MLB economy and a 26 year old righty that wasn’t highly ranked and soured in your organization, I think that’s a solid deal.

They soured on him so much that they put him right back into the rotation and shipped clevinger out of town? 9-1 K:BB rates don’t exist and they don’t have to pay him anything for a long time.

Yes, but he wrote Tyler Flowers, Freddy Galvis and Jon Lester with a straight face and zero to address the bullpen.

And also said Ozuna wouldn’t be back if no DH. So I’m just going to believe he’s being ultra conservative with his predictions until we know what the budget is and what MLB will do.

Ozuna was in the projections. I think everyone believes DH will stay.

Lester makes zero sense to include unless the FO is actually considering signing him, which would be a DISASTER.

Agreed on Lester but unfortunately MLBTR projected Lester to the Braves so there might be something to it.

Idk how good Jarred Kelenic will be, but giving away a top 25 prospect and taking on Robinson Cabo’s salary to get a closer is one of the dumbest trades of the decade
