I realize trading isn't open officially yet, but I'll go ahead and post this now since I've got it on the brain. Eric said I was entitled to a special prize for having the best non-playoff team in both leagues, and you have the very precious opportunity to make that a reality by sending me fabulous trade offers.
Springfield's two main trade chips at the major-league level are:
Dansby Swanson (B10) - 717 OPS and always great defense at SS, fine starting SS for a contender, but we're looking to move him and hand the keys to Jacob Wilson.
Mark Vientos (B3) - 837 OPS in 2024, 702 in 2025, ??? in 2026. We are open to trading him to a rebuilding team in exchange for an older/more expensive player who was better in MLB 2025.
Springfield's biggest need is catcher, secondary needs are more bats for the OF/DH mix and a couple more pitchers.
