No thanks on this one. It’s a good/fair return, but I’m not prepared to move Bibee. He’s the closest to helping the Guardians and the most likely to see immediate success due to the superior control of his top flight stuff. I’d like to know how these national pundits are getting their prospect information. You want 4 above average pitches then Bibee’s your man. You want a triple digit FB with life then Bibee’s your man. You want a hard breaking pitch with good bite then Bibee’s got 2 for you. His change up is at least average or better as well. I don’t blame this site’s formula for deriving value here as it can only calculate/factor the information given. It’s aggravating to know that if Bibee were in the Dodgers or the Yankees organization he would be a top 5 RHP prospect and have a value rating similar to Espino’s and Williams’. In all actuality his value should be more than either of them.
Anyway GSon, can we replace Bibee with either of Quantrill or Civale? I don’t mind dealing Karinchak and I sure as hell don’t mind moving Rosario. This idea seems to be more of what Cleveland would do as well since all of Quantrill, Civale and Plesac will be FA after the 2025 season.

It’s a no from me…
Do we even need Burleson?
