Up 18 points to 6th from 14th.

Successfully traded Zunino/Wainwright for Baty. Added Espino as I think he's going to be a top 5 SP prospect.

Trade-a-palooza offers:
- Whitlock $1/Leiter $1 for Hoskins/Montgomery
- Iglesias $19/Leiter $1 for Hoskins/Montgomery
- Royce Lewis $1/Melendez $1 for Perez
- Marsh $5/Melendez $1 for Perez
- Hader $21/4th year for Perez

If I trade Hoskins, would Wendle or Chisholm be worth pursuing as my MI/CI?

Prospecting-wise, is it worth keeping Miller (#74) or adding someone like Michael Harris (#44 on RHD's list) or Kahlil Watson (#33) or Matt McLain (#87) or Christian Hernandez (#56) or Taj Bradley (#104)?

- Whitlock $1/Leiter $1 for Hoskins/Montgomery - Hell yeah.
- Iglesias $19/Leiter $1 for Hoskins/Montgomery - Meh
- Royce Lewis $1/Melendez $1 for Perez - Not a big Lewis fan at all, but I guess this could be okay.
- Marsh $5/Melendez $1 for Perez - Meh
- Hader $21/4th year for Perez - Nah

If you're dumping, I'd be looking to cash in on Trout and Merrifield to begin with. You should be able to get top prospects for either. That Baty trade was a real nice one for you, imo.

Dropped Bauer and Mondesi. Added Yarbrough and Demeritte.

A couple new offers:

- Iglesias $19 for Hoskins
- Iglesias $19 / Leiter $1 for Hoskins / Montgomery
- Bryant $41 / Whitlock $1 / Leiter $1 for Trout / Montgomery
- LeMahieu $16/3rd year for Perez

The LeMahieu owner has Verlander $8/1st year, Musgrove $14/2nd year, and Taylor Rogers $13, but he won't move any of them for Perez plus a piece.
The Iglesias owner has Grayson Rodriguez $1 and Buehler $25/4th year.
I feel Perez is worth more than Hader. He's got Alcantara $23/1st year, Bednar $4, and Houck $13.
The Melendez owner has Gilbert $4/1st year and Greene $1.

The questions:
Are any of the offers worth countering?
Is it worth dropping Demeritte for someone like Harris, Watson, or McLain?
What should I be looking for if I want to compete this year?
