improving a player's trade value by letting them go bananas on the league for 8-10 games before trading them is one that gets discussed a lot here.
What about Erasmo in a blockbuster for a yount moto hitter? Does his lack of local hype translate to lesser value to tge rest of the world, or does his stomp through the AL on the first pass elevate him in other teams' eyes above the Big Three? Also neatly addresses the Latino connection Miami is going for.
Erasmo, Wells, Franklin, and Montero for Stanton? We could add one of the Big Three and another shiny bit if they included Johnson. Wishful thinking?
