October 19, 20187 yr You sure? Haven't you been here all season long following this? Realmuto is a free agent after 2020 and we won't contend until 2020 at the earliest. If JT won't sign an extension, you definitely trade him. It's the right move. Yeah and that's sad.
October 19, 20187 yr Yeah and that's sad. I don't think so. If you get the right return we can contend sooner by trading him. But if you wanna be sad you can blame JT himself.

October 20, 20187 yr Astros: Yordan Alvarez + JB Bukauskas + Freudis Nova + Jo Perez/Dean Deetz/Tyler Ivey Thank you very much
October 20, 20187 yr Any trade with the Astros has to include Martes. The Marlins should've been all over him as an international free agent.

October 23, 20187 yr Winter Meetings is when he gets dealt or extended most likely, in December we'll know
October 23, 20187 yr But didn't only the FA signing needed to start after the end of the WS ? or because JT,his agent,Jeter and Hill all need to watch the WS concentrated so couldn't do the negotiation in that period.
October 23, 20187 yr But didn't only the FA signing needed to start after the end of the WS ? or because JT,his agent,Jeter and Hill all need to watch the WS concentrated so couldn't do the negotiation in that period. Yes they can talk but there wouldn't be an announcement during the WS.
October 23, 20187 yr Winter Meetings is when he gets dealt or extended most likely, in December we'll know This gets said so much every year about every offseason topic and then the winter meetings come and go and nothing happens until afterwards.
October 23, 20187 yr Winter Meetings is when he gets dealt or extended most likely, in December we'll know He can and likely would get extended prior to the Winter Meetings. That is where he'd likely start to be dealt though if he hasn't signed a deal. I say start because often times, talks begin at the WM but don't complete until later.
October 23, 20187 yr Yes they can talk but there wouldn't be an announcement during the WS. Not announced any players news during the WS was a rule or just a "tacit understanding" ?

October 24, 20187 yr What prospects would you be willing to trade away for J.T. Realmuto? -- @chrisbetta69 Basically any young asset not named Ronald Acuna Jr. or Kyle Wright. The demand for Realmuto will go beyond the reality as he has established himself as the premier player at a premium position. The Phillies and Nationals will also likely attempt to acquire the 27-year-old catcher. But the Marlins' optimal return might come via the pitching depth that exists within the Braves' elite pipeline. Looking ahead, it appears the Braves will enter 2019 with Mike Foltynewicz, Kevin Gausman and Sean Newcomb in their rotation. There will certainly be a desire to add a front-line starter to this mix. So, suddenly you're looking at possibly one or two available rotation spots. There's also an obvious need to maintain some of this depth to address next season's inevitable needs. But when six of your pitchers -- Mike Soroka, Wright, Ian Anderson, Touki Toussaint, Luiz Gohara and Kolby Allard -- rank among MLB Pipeline's Top 100 Prospects, you can somewhat comfortably deal from a position of strength. Before getting too attached to a prospect, think about what happened over the past year with Soroka (missed most of the season with a right shoulder ailment), Gohara (went from Rookie of the Year candidate to potential liability) and Allard (provided immediate proof he wasn't ready for the Major League level). Maybe Soroka's shoulder issues will be a thing of the past. Maybe Gohara will benefit from offseason conditioning and a more disciplined lifestyle. Maybe a year of physical growth will allow Allard to re-establish his potential. The fact is we can't precisely say what the future holds for any of these pitching prospects, most of whom have not yet celebrated a 23rd birthday. Nor do we know whether Toussaint's big league walk rate (6.5 walks per nine innings) should be viewed as a concern or a product of youth. But we know that Realmuto has established himself as one of the game's best catchers and that he would help satisfy a need to add a quality right-handed bat to the lineup. Acquiring him at a 2019 cost of approximately $6.1 million (MLB Trade Rumors' arbitration estimate) would give the Braves the flexibility necessary to be more aggressive with their pursuit to satisfy other offensive and pitching needs. https://www.mlb.com/braves/news/braves-fans-ask-about-getting-jt-realmuto/c-299533654
October 24, 20187 yr If you trade him to anybody in the NL East you better fleece them lol I dunno I think Jeter would be too sheepish to send him to an NL east team.
