I am a big fan of my prospects and thank you for the insight on Kelly.
It's a real shame about Edwin Diaz... Like I live in NYC and everyone I know who is a Mets fan is emotionally broken down to the news they woke up to this morning. I had no idea the injury he suffered was that bad and will require surgery with a 6-8 month rehab... he is most likely done for the season. With that being said... I traded him at the end of the season, acquired Gregory Soto who is now on the Phillies, and I signed both Robertson and Ottavino in the offseason... With Diaz's injury, I now have the potential Closer and Setup man for the strong New York Mets team...

NYM trades:
Pablo Lopez
Tanner Bibee
2024 2nd round pick
TEX trades:
Edwin Diaz
Joc Pederson
4M 2024
Pablo Lopez secured himself a starting spot on the Twins...
NYY is trading Tanner Bibee SP
NYM is trading Seranthony Dominguez and 5 mil of 2023 Cap.
I then used Bibee to acquire Seranthony Dominguez who I think will be the Closer for the Phillies...
So now I have the potential Closer and Set up man for both the Phillies and Mets and the Closer for the mediocre Giants.
Joe Musgrove is aiming to return from his broken toe sooner than expected, Pablo Lopez became a starter for the Twins, Merrill Kelly is looking good, Christian Javier Extended, and I will have Corbin Burnes who could potentially win an NL Cy Young.
It would have been nice to acquire one more solid starter but I truly honestly can't complain about how my team is shaping up 2 weeks before opening day.
