Do you mean The Athletic? I like both, but they are quite different. :)

The Padres just traded for Pham and a prospect from TB. In just a couple of days, the two likely suitors for Marte just made alternate trades for much lesser players. I don't blame the Pirates FO for missing these opportunities, but it is a bummer.

I think there are probably quite a few teams who would see Marte as an upgrade in CF. And more than a few that could offer something good in return.

Marte to the Reds for Mahle, Winker and India

Bell to the Yanks for Andujar, Voit and Contreras



The problem if we do both of these, we won't, there isn't a catcher or a catching prospect among either deal.  And we don't get a good pitcher for the rotation.
Which one do you hate? ;)

It depends on where they play Pham. I agree though, SD might have been the best match for a good return. I'm sure there are other suitors. Maybe we can get Blake Snell now that he wasn't happy with the Pham deal and went Twitter happy with his displeasure.

I love the Yankee idea.
