Walker and Seager is what I have seen the most. Seager fits in with the rebuild and appears to be better than ever.
Walker, I think they want to resign so you gotta pay up if you want him. And that is not even mentioning he is mlb min contract so no worries about contract.

I am requiring a top 100 type for either.

I do like the Vidal Brujan suggestion but I am not hooked on him in particular.
They are not going to resign Walker when the got three guys in the wings that the can pay 1/20th the money to. And Walker is going to test the FA market. Doubt he would give us even a 1% discount.

Seager fits the rebuild? We are at least 2 yrs away. He is playing well, but He will be on the backside of 35 when he signs his next one

Let's go for the gold: Walker, Kirby and Crawford to the Dodgers for Lux and a catching prospect

They'd say no.

You'd have better luck trying to acquire Kyle's brother.

Seager is looking good. He was lifting weights during the off season and pushing hard on the treadmill... meanwhile Vogelbach was lifting cheeseburgers and pushing hard on the toilet...

He apparently didn't push hard enough.

If you were the Dodgers, would you trade the #2 prospect in MLB and a catching prospect for a starting pitcher who pitched in a total of four games in 2018/2019 and at best is an average major league pitcher, a shortstop who in four seasons as a major league player has yet to hit, and the # 100 prospect?

If I am secretly a Mariner fan, yes. Don't tell my Dodger employers...

Walker wont fetch much... odds are they can get like a 8-10th best prospect in an organization because the M's hold little leverage.

If it's the Yankees I like the idea of Luis Medina. He's in AA and is expected ready by 2021... throws 96-102 with cut. He is PRIME for a switch to a bullpen role much like Diaz did a few years back.

M's rotation by 2022 will have Kirby, Gilbert, Marco, Sheffield + whoever they sign in F/A w. big bucks at the very least... + Emerson, Campbell, Williamson will all be right on the horizon too. Walker isn't in the plans for the future and they need to add a few more solid bullpen prospects.

Given that we have half of half a season left, an 8-10 ranked prospect would be a good haul.
