And they keep trading off stars for high-floor guys at or near the big leagues.
I mean, if you're going to trade Lindor, you need to get at least 1 top 50 prospect type. Rosario has aged out of that, and Gimenez never was that.
The trade market sucks in general because everyone is hoarding their prospects to a stupid degree. It's frustrating.
I'll get some prospect stuff worked up for KC soon.

In today's baseball if you're willing to take on salary you can acquire high level players for nothing, look at the Padres.
