I watch baseball on occasion and I don’t really follow contract situations that much so I was trying to learn values of players and after doing more research I admit I serverely screwed the trade proposal up. Now I realize the Angels have about 30mil in payroll and need to spend a reasonable amount on a catcher that can hit/field well. I have a list of other options. Ages are listed for 2019. Stats are career averages Welington Castillo(32) 318 obp, 259 BA, 33% CS Not sure if the White Sox want to trade him(not sure about prospect price) he makes 7.25-8 mil the next three years Yasmani Grandal(30) 341 obp, 240 BA, 26% CS 9.9 mil/yr market value Wilson Ramos(31) 317 obp, 273 BA, 32% CS 10.7 mil/yr market value Alex Avila(32) 347 obp, 237 BA, 29% CS. Makes 4.25 mil in his walk year. Read he has an injury history and the Dbacks didn’t play him much last year. Perhaps he can be traded for cheap Manny Pina has some good numbers but I doubt the Brewers trade him. Yan Gomes and Salvador Perez have already been discussed on AW I believe so I won’t mention them again.

Kind of new to baseball. I know the rules but still trying to figure out the value of certain guys and positions of teams. All I really knew about the Angels were that the Pujols contract is bad, and Trout is the best. I figured the Marlins would want Simmons to trade him immediately for more prospects.

Would you guys support a trade of Andrelton Simmons, Brandon Marsh and Jahmai Jones to the Marlins for J.T. Realmuto? Hopefully the inclusion of Simmons can keep Adell and Canning out of the deal. Is this enough to get it done? How about also signing Manny Machado to play shortstop in this scenario?
