Manny Ball sends
Chris Sale Gregory Polanco
philswsc8008 sends
Byron Buxton Matt Garza
I accept this trade. Sale is great and Polanco is a great prospect but Buxton has the potential to be a #1 fantasy player. I'm building for the future and there is no better player to have right now than Buxton when you are future minded.

I accept this trade, Sale is a young top tier pitcher that will be an ace for years to come. Polanco has a high ceiling.

Garza's health history scares me, but then again the "experts" have said since Chris Sale arrived that he has a poor throwing motion that's going to blow out his arm. Polanco will be part of a good Pirate team that is getting better if all their prospects delivery what the experts predict. I have even heard that Polanco may open the season in RF for Pittsburgh this year (certainly by June because of player control considerations).
Some experts have said that Buxton has the potential to be the next Mike Trout.
I also approve the trade. I think it has risks for both, but is very balanced and fair.

I rather have the Sale and Polanco side. IMO Polanco is a lot closer to Buxton than Garza to Sale... But good deal!

Ya there is the obviously large gap between Sale and Garza but if Buxton turns out to what people hope he could be I think the difference value wise should pretty large. Polanco is great but he won't hit for a high enough average to be a top 5 player where Buxton is being compared to Trout. If he is even close to what Trout can do then I see this as a win.
However, with Buxton being so far away there's a chance he fizzles out and looking back this could be a terrible deal for me but hey sometimes you gotta take the risk to get the reward!
