[QUOTE="the juiceman cometh, post: 1780917, member: 747321"] The problem with Montas is you won't get him for lesser prospects. Fewer prospects, yes, but the A's still want a couple top prospects for him and I'd expect they'd insist on at least one of Walker or Winn, if not both. For Murphy to be added in the deal, almost certainly they'd want both (is the Trivino add to drive down cost? Because he's been atrocious). And the other big issue with Montas is he's a half season rental. So does the addition of Montas get us to the World Series this year? I think it's pretty unlikely. At least Soto would be here for two seasons after this one. I'd be willing to trade top prospects for that, but not sure I'm willing to bet the farm on this season alone though. [/QUOTE]
