Rays said they'd have to be blown away for an Archer trade. So I'll give one a try.

To Pittsburgh
Chris Archer
Curt Casali

To Tampa Bay
Josh Bell
Elias Diaz
Nick Kingham
Austin Meadows

It would suck to lose Bell, but think about it, the outfield is stacked, so Meadows would be stuck. This deal would leave Pittsburgh with Taillon and Glasnow, so Kingham isn't the biggest blow, finally Diaz is blocked behind Cervelli. Archer is an ace, and even though he's having a rough season, he's got a friendly contract and will surely bounce back next year. Pirates would probably say no, but the price would be high for Arch.

Are you referring to Starling Marte? If so, no way the Pirates include him. He's arguably been their best player this season.
