10 trades that need to happen -

White Sox send SP Jose Quintana to Pittsburgh for SP Tyler Glasnow, RHP Mitch Keller, and 3B Ke'Bryan Hayes. Sox continue rebuild, while Bucs get their No. 2 SP.

White Sox also send RP David Robertson to Washington, while the Nationals ship OF Nick Banks and P Austin Voth to Chicago. Nats get their closer, Sox add talent.

White Sox also trade 3B Todd Frazier to the Mets for OF Brandon Nimmo. Mets cannot count on David Wright, and have OF depth to spare. Nimmo can start immediately in Chicago.

Mets then deal OF Jay Bruce to Toronto for OF Dalton Pompey. Blue Jays fill out their OF with Bruce, while Mets can take a look at Pompey in CF and give him a chance to reboot his career.

Pirates trade OF Andrew McCutchen to Baltimore for RP Brad Brach and SP Wade Miley. Cutch takes over in RF for O's to revive his career, while Brach bolsters the Pittsburgh pen and Miley adds a veteran arm to the rotation. That also opens a spot for Austin Meadows in Pittsburgh.

Twins swap 2B Brian Dozier to LA, while Dodgers ship SP Jose deLeon and 2B Willie Calhoun to Minnesota. Dodgers solidify the infield, Twins get a future rotation linchpin.

Cardinals trade 1B Matt Adams to Washington for C Pedro Severino and SS Carter Kieboom. St. Louis clears a little bench space and adds two good prospects, while Nats pair Adams with Zimmerman at 1B.

Some of these have been discussed, some have not, but all make some sense for each team involved. All may need a tweak, but all answer needs for each team involved.

McCutchen for Brach and Miley is the worst trade i have ever seen. and the Mets would need to give up more for Frazier.

Didn't read except for the Pirates trades which are horrendous especially the cutch deal.

That McCutchen trade. Yikes.

Also Dozier will command more.

The Bucs would deal Cutch to get rid of the payroll burden.

As I said, all of these would likely need tweaked. They're all discussion starters, gents. Merry Christmas.
