Dilemma

lukestephens2293 · 04-15-2017, 10:10 AM

Im stuck in a bit of dilemma because I want players to help me win now but i want to keep developing prospects Julio Urias being one although his ERA says 4.59 i just feel whether its worth trading him and getting in someone like a Chris Archer to help Clayton Kershaw in the rotation as we build to a world series title. I just feel my dodgers rotation is one all star calibre player short and getting Archer would help my goal of a WS title.

There is absolutely no way I move a prospect like Urias for Archer or any one single pitcher. Win now is a recipe for mediocrity later. The grass is always greener where it is watered and cared for.

Grow the system and the prospects.

For a 20 year old thats good ERA. He will settle down.

If you were a small market team, with a very small window, then maybe do it. But you're the Dodgers. Your window is forever open. Keep Urias and go this year. Then, buy someone at deadline for lesser prospects or buy more in the offseason for money, of which you have for all intents and purposes a limitless supply.

Anyway, I say don't trade him because your window is always open.
