@PuckSports@JimDuquetteGM Wtf does "talk of major league baseball" mean? Why is it whenever a star like Kirby is discussed we're not hearing that the M's are going to get some God tier return? If him moving is the talk of major league baseball, I better see a massive return.
@thejagepage@BenRanieri10 Oh give me a break.
Schmitt been some hot ass for the last 50 games. He had 2 good months and now we're going to offload the most valuable thing in baseball for him? Young, controlled starters?
I wish M's Twitter didn't have so many bad fan accounts.
@uwcommentor I doubt he's getting firm no's. He's 2 weeks out from the deadline and teams haven't gotten desperate yet and the M's aren't willing to eat a considerable amount of cash/attach a prospect yet to move him as of yet.
Plenty of time for that to change.
@CLew2620@TbSeattle Castillo isn't the player you should be trading to get impact back. You move him to free up money and the rotation.
Go get a lefty specialist like Spencer Steer for prospects.
Why lessen a massive strength if it's not going to be for the same return?
@RedlegsRobb@JustBB_Media@WillSammon The M's trade a pitcher with a sub-3 ERA and 4.5 years of control for 2x players worth a combined 0.4 WAR... and the Mariners would have to add Rodden?
Were u born with a mental disability?
@SeaTownKev Only players I'm moving Kirby for are Byron Buxton or Fernando Tatis Jr. There isn't much of anything out there from a RH bat standpoint that is worth Kirby.
And please don't try to sell me on Casey Schmitt and his 80 wRC+ since 6/1.
@yodaprom@HotStoveintel Not sure what that has to do with Schmitt... but OK.
They need starting pitching. The M's don't really have starting pitching prospects you'd send for a rental. So it's likely Castillo + $10M or you attach a couple prospects like Brock Rodden and Logan Evans that r MLB ready.
@yodaprom@HotStoveintel Schmitt can be under control for as long as he wants. He's not that good.
Has been only an 83 wRC+ hitter since 6/1. Has come crashing down to earth after a hot start. Probably won't touch 3 WAR this year.
You don't trade 3x top 10 prospect in a top 3 farm for that.
@ThaPriesto@3Bet99@AvgMarinersFan_ Ok get real. The Mariners are never trading for Mike Trout or Kyle Schwarber (who is left handed). Why would the M's trade for a catcher owed $15M a year in Realmuto who is hitting horribly? Walker is the face of the Cards. Adell, Schmitt, Ramos aren't worth Kirby.
@JohnPhi7056453@ThaPriesto@AvgMarinersFan_ You don't "lose him for nothing." He was an All Star this last season. They'll extend him a QO and get a high draft pick after they lose him.
