The team is far from what it takes too compete but they really did speed fill their youth and farm with all their trades and there’s a legit core of young young guys here now that are going to make a heck of a team as they gel and grow

Definitely, hopefully some of these young guys they got back in trades and through higher draft picks the next few years hit & then they're a playoff team again in 2025.

Looking ahead to the trade deadline, these guys should 100% not be on the team and moved on for future assets:

KYLE FINNEGAN, RP - he's already 31 but has two years of arbitration controlled years left. He's been solid if unspectacular.

CARL EDWARDS, JR., RP - see Finnegan. Will be a Free Agent in 2024. 

JEIMER CANDELARIO, 3B - he's having a pretty darn good year, after signing his 2nd prove it contract in as many seasons. Someone needing corner help should definitely scoop him up. He's a free agent after this season. Packaging him with a reliever above might pull a decent haul back. 

COREY DICKERSON, OF - The veteran has no future outside this season with us, so if anyone will take him for something, we should consider it. 

VICTOR ROBLES, OF - It's time to move on. Both sides have worn their welcome. He could use a change of scenery. He comes with an affordable club option for 2024. 

If the right offer came along...

Dominic Smith, 1B - You have to keep bodies somewhere, and he's under control for another year. Could be a better 2024 trade chip. 

Joey Meneses, OF/DH - an interesting one. He hasn't had the power we saw last year, but he's one of the best hitters in baseball with RISP. I think you hold out for a haul for him, and if nothing comes, you keep him another year. He's very cheap. 

Michael Chavis, 1B/2B - similar to Smith. 

Hunter Harvey, RP - I'd let this guy develop another year and maybe you can move him in 2024.
