this is why nobody respects you or your opinions on anything. And if it was a joke (hopefully it was) you could do better than that
Why don't you give some solid baseball opinions on the OP? Instead of trying to impress the other SAs.

Perhaps the new Moe knows instant hypnosis and then it's easy.

Walker and Norman for Skenes and the Jolly Roger.

Yes sir they would, and 29 other teams with better high end prospects. That’s the first thing.

Second he’s a league level Ace. Two fledgling players won’t even touch that deal.
At least you gave some reasoning. Many here are more into SA remarks. I salute you.
You have been participating in the GDT. That’s great. You’ve been less thread heavy that too is good. You are a strong contributor with a mass of knowledge.

To your point. Remove Walker and Gorman, start with McGreevy graceffo and Pallante and at least they don’t hang up.

My opinion is that senior citizen centers could offer you a world of fun. I'm jealous that I'm unable to take an afternoon for a few leisurely games of shuffleboard. You could play backgammon, watch a Cardinal game with some the other fellas, even dance with Dorothy and Mildred to Lawrence Welk reruns. The last one wouldn't be my thing but you catch my drift.

That convo would most likely begin with Wetherholt, Saggessee, and a Libby or a GG.. Walker might be a throw in.... Doesn't matter though, Skenes isn't going anywhere any time soon. They don't have to pay him yet. That's when the Dodgers and the Yanks will be calling...

P. Skenes = Future LA Dodger...NY Yankee...or NY Met

BDWJr would gag on his future $50M AAV

What too many can't decipher is, I just threw this out there for discussion. OI didn't propose the trade. There's a difference.
Would Babe Ruth have sex with Hank Aaron if both were in a North Korean prisoner camp?

Hey...just throwing it out for discussion!
