Which starting pitchers do you want us to target when trades resume?

[mmc]

If we’re a good enough team at whatever point in the upcoming this season the deadline is to justify being buyers, what SPs would you want us to look at acquiring?  I wouldn’t mind circling back on Carrasco or maybe even Clevinger if the Indians are out of it and decide to retool, trading away Lindor and others as well.  I also would want us to look into Joe Musgrove and Matthew Boyd again if they repeat or improve on their 2019 seasons.  Of course there will be some rentals who will command a lot of interest, but I’d personally prefer to focus on players with term.  Who do you want the Angels to go after?

We havent given up a single run this season, so i say dont mess with it.

And at the same time, every available pitcher has a zero ERA, so theyre price will be insane. Adell and Marsh at least.

Wrong.

Cam's ERA is 5.83

Even after the vaccine, he should stay quarantined.

Looks like Heaney, Buttrey and Ramirez will all be made available for curbside pickup.

I'm sure the Padres are feeling great about the value Richards brought to the team.

No kidding, eh?

If you’re gonna go for Clevinger I think Marsh has to be out of the equation. That’s our answer for left field once Pujols retires. Try a package deal of Rengifo, Thaiss, Barria and maybe La Stella. Don’t know if that would get it done though. Maybe if the Indians are desperate enough. I think some other team will one up that offer though.

I don’t even know if there will be trades if there’s an 82-game season.

it's hard to imagine there would be, other than maybe a few moves. i think this topic is funny. the world is in pandemic, no sports are being played and we're talking about who to acquire? for what?! there's no baseball.

Kind of what i was wondering, would there be one at all?

Here's an article discussing some of the pros and cons to having trades in any shortened 2020 season:

Cam seems to be Stratomatic friendly (3.07 ERA).
