If you could add any 3 players from any team...

[Angelsjunky]

...who would it be? Ignore contracts, but consider age.

The first trio that comes to mind is Buehler, Betts, and one of May or Urias (Dodgers).

I'd also be tempted to nab Bieber, Lindor, and Plesac from the Indians.

I'd love to have Soto, Acuna, or Tatis, but couldn't find the supporting two pitchers to equal the above.

I'd be fine with Ian Anderson in place of Soroka as well.

I considered Acuna, Anderson, but wasn't sure about the third - and slightly prefer the Dodgers and Indians trios.

[T.G.]

Cole, deGrom, Soroka.

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

DeGrom, Tatis, Buehler 

Do they have to be from the same team?

[eligrba]

I would take whoever the scouts from the Rays or the Dodgers suggest.

deGrom, Alonso, McNeil

Same team, folks.

[Blarg]

SS Tatis, 2B Croneworth, P Davies. 

[rafibomb]

Freeman, Soroka, Anderson

[Angels_Make_Me_Drink]

Same team? 
 

Mookie, Buehler, and May

[Chuck]

Acuna, Fried, Anderson. 

Or...

Tatis, Clevinger, Lamet

This is probably where I’d go, or:

Soto, Trea Turner, Who Cares

Soto is incredibly good. 
or 

Robert, Jimenez, Giolito

Acuna, Ian Anderson, Fried

I just prefer any of the trio of Braves' pitchers to Plesac at this juncture.   It's less about Plesac than it is the oddities of the schedule this season. 

The AL Centrral had an unusual number of SPs have peak or near peak seasons in 2020, I'm guessing when 1/3 of your schedule is against two of the worst offensive teams in your league and another 1/3 was .vs three of the worst offensive teams in the other league it makes for some unusual results..  That's 5 teams who combined for an OPS+ of 89 or worse and two others at 90 -- given all the spikes in performance, I'm not sold on the results.

Smoltz, Glavine and Maddux

Ages: 53, 54, 54. I wonder what their ERAs would be.

Buehler, Betts, Urias from the Dodgers.  Don't see another trio out there that matches.  The Dodgers are ridiculously stacked.

Cole, Chapman, Judge

The Dodgers are so stacked.  There is also Gonsolin, Bellinger, Smith and Seager.

I guess if I was going to take any 3 of the Dodgers I would go Buehler, Belinger and May.

A lot of our guys in their 20s suck, so we shouldnt be too quick to dismiss the old guys here.

[T.G.]

If you guys love the Dodgers so much, maybe you should marry them.

Bellinger had a tough year or I think everyone would be picking him.  He has been great in the playoffs, as has Betts.  I like Urias because he is only 23.  I would be tempted to pick Seager just because he fills a hole in the Angels roster.
