I'm in the enviable position of having most of my cap accounted for along with a bad team! There's reason to hope for a bounceback in performance in some places, but I doubt that my guys put me in a position to win in 2022. I'll be playing for 2023.
My main focus in trade will be acquiring assets that help me put forward a competitive team for 2023 - onwards. With that being said, my block is as follows:
Hitting:
CF - Mike Trout (LAA) $28.1 2022 - chances are the 30% discount in FA next year will be the plan, but I'm always open to listening on an offer if someone's heart is set on Trout
3B - Anthony Rendon (LAA) $12.0 2022 - chances are the 30% discount in FA next year will be the plan, but I'm always open to listening on an offer if someone's heart is set on Rendon
UTIL - Taylor Walls (TBR) $0.5 2nd - producing alright for the Rays and plays most nights due to his versatility, would want a pretty decent return for him.
Pitching:
SP - Noah Syndergaard (NYM) $9.5 2024 - solid stuff and production. Chances are he's going to a better team by the actual trade deadline which will help him land a few more wins
SP Kyle Wright (ATL) $1.0 3rd - providing ace level production and leads the NL in wins. 3+ years of control means he's not going to come cheap
SP/RP - Brock Burke (TEX) $0.3 1st - A sub 1.5 ERA more than halfway through the season and he's getting SV/HLDs and Wins on the Rangers
