Yes; we'd also want Derek Holland, a 23 year old young starter who can step in and take Greinke's innings.

I think you're playing up ages way too much in this discussion. Profar and Perez are young but they're both top 50 overall prospects. I'll take a younger player over a more experienced one if he has superior talent, and especially if the younger player will be playing in the majors at the same time as as our other young prospects that we're counting on.

Still, I'm not against a trade to Toronto, and Drabek probably makes more sense than Perez given our LHP-heavy pitching prospects.

What do you think is a fair offer from Toronto for Greinke? I think a deal has to be centered around Drabek to make it happen. Would they even package Drabek and Snider together?
