Would Toronto accept this offer for Guerrero and Bichette?

[sergioalpert66]

Tigers send Toronto Max Clark, Kevin McGonigle, Spencer Torkelson, Jace Jung, Jaden Hamm, and Trey Sweeney for Guerrero and Bichette.  If you were Toronto's gm would you make the trade?

Oh no.....

If Harris or a designee offers that trade, it is a fireable offense.

[RandyMarsh]

A rare trade where somebody offers up an overpay on our behalf, usually it would be something like Ty Madden and Justin Malloy for said players.

Okay........with Sweeney, Tork and Jung we are contenders already and Clark & McGonigle are two of the biggest prospects in baseball.  

Guerrero and Bichette aren't helping Toronto contend.   They are in last place - and Guerrero is expensive too. 

This is insane.

Harris is building his team out of his pieces. I don't see him trading any core present or future player. I could see Sweeney being moved but none of the others (if they regard him as purely stop gap)

I’d do this trade if the Leafs would throw in Austen Matthews

[Tiger337]

You know the Tigers are relevant again when you see awful trade offers like this.  

[Tigerbomb13]

Aren’t both players free agents after next year? Not even Randy Smith would have done this.

I'd do this trade if the Raptors would use their time machine to include peak Vince Carter for the Pistons.  I would be willing for the Pistons to use the time machine to include peak William Bedford heading back to Toronto.  I might personally use the time machine to grab a Miller Genuine Draft, just for fun.

Oh hell yeah, I make that deal as the Blue Jays GM. Guerrero and Bichette are both free agents after next year, and Bichette flat out sucks my ass. So as Toronto GM, I make that deal all day every day and twice on Sunday.

Thanks for weighing in, Al. Good first post. Nice to see you're in good spirits after your unceremonious ****canning.

Seems like if you guys were the Toronto general manager you would make the trade.  I like the idea of adding two right-handed bats to the lineup.  Meadows, Greene, Guerrero, Carpenter, Keith, Bichette, 3b Vierling, DH Perez/Malloy, Dingler/Rogers.  Farm still has Jobe, Rainer, Liranzo, Lee, Briceno, Hall, among others.  So the farm would still be in good shape, and the lineup in Detroit just got a lot better.  I'm not as sold as some of you that the players the Tigers give up are going to have a big impact as major leaguers, assuming they all make the bigs.

You gotta give to get.  A fair trade has a little bit of pain on both sides.

I would fire Harris for that trade. Just say NO.

Why are we entertaining this?

Please move along—nothing to see here.

We would be better off just waiting until Guerrero is a FA. Get him without giving away the future. But...nice try.

[Tigermojo]

I will accept it but I'm just trying to be nice.

If I were Toronto's GM, I'd take it and run.

If I were Detroit's GM, I'd hang up and block the phone number.

I suggest you let this post fade away.

Agreed I just don't think those 2 are the the type of players Id give for. Love Vladdy, one of the best hitters in the game but he provides no value elsewhere and is about to be a FA.

If I knew that this was just an outlying year for Bichette than he would be a nice addition but as is he really isn't that much of an upgrade over Sweeney, especially considering their respective salaries the next 5+years.

Vlad Jr and Bichette for Baez and Maeda.  Take it or leave it.

[Tigermojo]

Bo Bichette broke his finger on the keyboard in his haste to approve this trade.

My favorite part might be that the trade proposal included Jace Jung after his amazing slide and the iconic photo that resulted from it.

Just think about what that slide would look like after the exchange rate were applied, eh?
