Phillies Dodgers trade:
Phillies get: Yasiel Puig
Dodgers get: Roman Quinn, Franklyn Kilome, Zach Eflin, Cody Asche
Why?
Dodgers can rid themselves of a clubhouse drama in Puig, while in return getting a promising young outfielder to eventually pair with Pederson, adding two top15 RHP prospects, and a 3rd baseman who is young and an "upgrade" over their current options
Phillies trade some surplus of their farm, while adding a top, crowd drawing player in puig who can help spark a lineup who will be ready to compete in 2017.
Projected lineup:
SS: JP Crawford
RF: Yasiel Puig
C:Jorge Aflaro
3B: Maikel Franco
LF: Nick Williams
CF: Aaron Athlerr
1B: Andrew Knapp
2B: Cesar Hernandez

Dodgers aren't that desperate to move Puig.
Good grief this is all sorts of awful.

The Phillies lineup is missing some parts
Sweeney
Ruiz
Howard
Ruf
Blanco
Galvis
Bourjos
And who is this Crawford guy he isn't even on the 40-man roster and neither is Knapp or Williams so get your stuff together and try again.

This is a lineup for when the phillies are prepared to compete again, which would be 2017, i should have said that so my bad. Crawford is their number one prospect, knapp is their #2 catching prospect likely to move to 1B, and Williams is their number 4 prospect, so I'm pretty sure my "stuff" is together.

You did say that, CrazySull just can't read.
It doesn't change the fact that you basically have the Dodgers pretty much handing over Puig for nothing but a prospect who has never lived up to his hype (Quinn), a 3B/ LF who isn't all that great (Asche) and two so-so guys. Dodgers would want a large return for Puig, and rightfully so.
Think J. P. Crawford, think Cornelius Randolph, Jorge Alfaro. It won't be cheap.

Also no team should want to trade for puig he is just a head case that no one wants. I doubt a team trades for him unless they have no other option left and are that desperate. Or the Dodgers lower the asking price drastically.

First of all, Randolph, Crawford, and Alfaro is a huge overpay for a player that has attitude issues to say the least. You saw how much the price dropped for chapman. The Reds wanted Judge and one of Severino or Sanchez in the summer. They didn't come close to matching that package. Also, ask any prospect guy in the game, and Kilome could have the biggest upside out of any Phillies prospect, so he isn't a "so-so" guy. He has legit ace potential. Thirdly, the Phillies are never going to make a trade like this, especially this early in their rebuild. They would only make this kind of deal when they were playing better and the players they gave up were spare parts.
