I’d really like them to let Anderson lead off, followed by Granderson vs RH and Castro vs LH. Each offers a little more pop/speed to 1st than Anderson. If I had to guess, those are the two that leadoff with Anderson batting 2nd or 3rd.

Assuming they’re facing a RHP, Granderson in RF Cooper in LF and Walker at 1B would be my guess. Also, Granderson had an .798 OPS against RHP last year, .850 career. I think he makes the team and hits 1 or 2 vs Righties.

Twitter. Check the replies. Wouldn’t hate... (Marlins) I.Anderson + D.Waters OF + B.Wilson RHP <–> (Braves) J.Realmuto C + D.Steckenrider RHP That would be Miami’s top 3 prospects at MLB Prospect Watch and Fangraphs.

Not sure if this was mentioned, but Mish saying that Miami won’t grant SD a window to work on an extension because JTR won’t sign. Wouldn’t dismiss it with “winning teams”. Dodgers, Braves, Astros. From Atlanta, Miami wants I.Anderson + E.Inciarte/A.Riley/J.Camargo + another piece, which he doesn’t think they will get. Suggests Miami settle on I.Anderson + C.Pache/D.Waters + another piece.

And Frisaro points to “no state income tax in Florida”. https://mobile.twitter.com/JoeFrisaro/status/1052255139715788805 And confirms that “the play is for three players, not one.” https://mobile.twitter.com/JoeFrisaro/status/1052278778070585344 Don’t know how to post Tweets.

I’m going with Joe. I thought I remember someone tweeting that the Orioles projected number was high and Miami had already passed them? I could be mistaken, or perhaps that tweet was incorrect as most seem to be sticking with 6.7 as the O’s number. That said, I doubt Frisaro posts the linked article without confirmation from Miami.

Neck and neck.

I’m gonna guess 250 for De Paula and 500 for Giron.

https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2018/10/marlins-acquire-international-pool-money-from-astros.html Astros know who to target. Really liked Giron. No problem with the trade, just saying.

Gaston, again according to Fangraphs, would fall in the 14-28 range.

Fangraphs (not that they’re the authority, but one example) has VV Mesa as an FV 45+ which would place him next to Guzman (6-7) in Miami’s System. https://www.fangraphs.com/prospects/the-board/2018-international?type=0&pos=all&team=all

Didn’t Victor Mesa Sr. say “all things being equal, Miami is the best environment for my sons”? I would imagine the $ number is equal to whatever Baltimore can offer. After this trade, I’d imagine Miami is close.

Van Slyke?

With García being given a shot at the rotation I’d expect he sticks as one of the five starters and wouldn’t be surprised, or disappointed, if Conley ends up in the ‘pen.

They decided on Worley due to the Angels lineup being RH heavy. All things equal, I'm guessing they'd have started Nicolino.
