Trade Joseph/Neshek to NYY or Boston, then send Luis Garcia, Joaquin Benoit, Jeremy Hellickson, Howie Kendrick, and Daniel Nava for whatever I can get at this point.

Listening on Hector Neris, Odubel Herrera, Franco, and Cesar, but do not want to sell low on any right now.

The real wild card here is Freddy Galvis. I think he has value, but he is a tough situation. JP has not been great by any stretch and Freddy is so strong defensively. His leadership has improved and the pop is there. I’d listen on him and deal him if someone was willing to even slightly overpay. Otherwise, I keep him and give JP as much time as he needs.

I bring up Hoskins and that is it for me. If I deal Odubel, I’d consider Cozens.

Offseason…I’d look at the market on starting pitchers. Try and trade for an ace. Would really love to see them make a push for Chris Archer. The money and prospects are there and he fits the timeline.

If Franco gets moved, I’d look at a one year deal on someone like Todd Frazier. Low OBP guy, but ton of power. I still don’t want to deal Franco because I think it means they’ll go Machado over Harper and I want Harper so badly.
