The Mookie + Price and Ca$h deal seems to be stalled.. The structure of the deal originally reported that the Dodgers traded Maeda to the Twins for Graterol. Graterol was then flipped to the Red Sox along with Verdugo to complete the deal. Turns out, the LAD / Red Sox deal had the Red Sox doing the flipping of Maeda to the Twins.. not the LAD's. The Red Sox can now deal Maeda to the Twins for Graterol plus a top 10 from the Twins farm system while keeping Graterol in the deal or the Twins will give up a prospect from 11-20 along with Graterol for Maeda.

So, Boston holds the reigns on what's going to happen.. They can accept the original deal (unlikely) or the Twins can add a prospect:

Boston's 1st choice for the additional prospect = Jhoan Duran

Twins' choise for the additional prospect = Jorge Alcala

or the Red Sox will trade Maeda to a team like the Atlanta Braves:

Boston gets Kyle Muller and William Contreras

Atlanta gets Kenta Maeda

Making the Dodgers/Red Sox deal complete..

Thoughts?.

Brad Hand and Francisco Lindor will both be in the last full year of control. Lindor for his ARB III is projected above $ 25 MM. Brad Hand has a club option for $ 10 MM ($ 1 MM buy out) . This addition to the yankee payroll. $ 35 MM, would warrant good, not elite talent. The guys chosen. could vary. Deivi Garcia is a little guy who doesn't fit with the kind of hurler the indians typically covet, so he could be replaced. The indians expressed their interest in Clint Frazier by trading him, so he could be replaced. Estevan Florial is an interesting prospect that ran face first into the wall when facing advanced minor league pitching. The Indians have several guys just like him. they don't need more. So. three of the six guys may not work for the Indians.

The other guys in this deal would be serviceable for the Tribe. So, we'd start with Volpe, Voit and Loaisiga. Add a pair of "better" prospects in Kevin Alcantara and Antonio Gomez, while "throwing in" and Miguel Andujar and call it a done deal.

and make no mistake. the Yankees are not the only game in town when it comes to receiving Frankie Lindor, even for a single season in return.

Arenado is not only already at market pricing $ 60 MM for 2 years, but also has an opt out after those two years. The package being offered should go to a guy like Betts or Lindor. They're at least top five players in MLB. Lindor would be about $ 15 MM less over the two years as well. If Cleveland would take that package, then the Braves should offer it and see if Cleveland bites. Who knows. maybe the Indians would want some different guys like a catcher instead of one of the pitchers? .

. sending out the trash for gems isn't going to work for any team attempting to make a deal with the NYY's.

Massive risk / return with both Greene and Hinds. Cleveland is more risk averse than this deal appears.

Straight salary dump ( $ 167 MM for both guys, combined) this is not. both of these guys can still play. The return to the Cubs is substantial.
