I think you'd get 2 of them and then some peripheral guys. But I also think that's okay at best for Martinez.

That's the problem.  The Cardinals are going to want an arm and a leg, which is why I think it's unlikely at best that Carlos Martinez is realistically available.  By dealing Carlos Martinez, the FO is essentially giving off the idea of a "rebuild" and considering the Cardinals are consistently in the top 5 in terms of attendance I seriously doubt that the Cardinals' ownership is going to sign off on an LOLastros or Cubs situation.  ESPN goes back as far as 2001 in terms of attendance, and I believe the lowest the Cardinals ranked was 8th in 2004.

The question is there a market for Miles Mikolas, and if so what kind of return would he gather?  At this point, I'm still skeptical the Cardinals would deal him given that I think they have no desire to appear like the Marlins.  But this smells like the Jedd Gyorko situation where the Cardinals refuse to strike while the iron is hot.

The Cardinals aren’t trading Carlos. 

I don't think anyone really believes the Cardinals are trading him.  I think we're just disagreeing what kind of package it'd take for the Cardinals to consider moving him.

Mookie Betts hits a 3 run home run and the Orioles immediately roll out a white tarp due to the rain.

As close to a literal white flag I've ever seen in professional sports.

The Reds or one of its fans pulled a fire alarm when Austin Gomber was pitching a no-hitter just yesterday.

Thats a stretch.  Andujar has been just as valuable as Martinez this year, he's also a 23 year old rookie with 6+ control.  Sheffield is a top-30ish prospect.
