Stupid Contenders Trade Deadline Trade Propositions

OK, I have to hysterically laugh when I read some trade proposals that fans make.   Some of these are so stupid that when you read between the lines you come up with "We want you to give us your best players and will give you some crap players we don't want and you will be happy about us because, well, we are (fill in the team name) and you are some crappy team that wants to just give players away to save money."

So, in the spirit of all those stupid people trying to fleece another team here is my trade proposal:

We trade to the Yankees: Trevor Bauer, Corey Kluber, Jason Kipnis and Jose Ramirez

We get back: Clint Frazier, Gleyber Torres, Miguel Andujar and Chance Adams

This makes perfect sense to me  (if you can trade injured players, which you can't).  We could even take on a bad salary if the Yankees want us to.

We are giving up 4 (cough ALL-STAR VETERANS cough, Cy young award winning or shoulda been Cy Young winning) players and getting back a bunch of young guys.   Playoff veterans for inexperienced youngsters and Andujar is done for the season and wouldn't help them this year!

I mean young guys are nice and all but prospects are just that.   Look at Mejia for example.   The team taking the young players is taking all the risk, right.  

Yeah, the Yankees guys in the trade have shown something but they are questionably effective, especially in the playoffs where experience matters, right?

Plus, it's the Yankees.    They can take on extra salary, right?

So there you have it.   A trade that finally makes sense.  The deep pocket Yankees take on salary and get seasoned playoff veterans and we take on young cheap players because, well, we are the Cleveland Indians and you should give us your young prospects because, well, we need and deserve your young players and we will let you fleece us out of our playoff seasoned veterans just because you have us over a barrel because we don't want to pay veteran salaries.

And even if this trade turns out bad for the Yankees they can always buy some free agents to make up for it.

Yep, let's do this deal!
