Would you trade Suarez for a Number 1 Starter?
#5
yea.

I mean...easily.

Suarez is probably the most valuable asset this team has, from a trade value standpoint, and if we could get a Jacob DeGrom or Noah Syndergaard for him, I'd pull that trigger immediately.

I think Senzel will be a fine offensive replacement for Suarez. He may have some rookie struggles, but the benefit we'd get from a TOR starter would more than make up for that difference, I think.

Plus, Suarez is not that great of a defender. He led the NL in errors by third basemen, with 19, and had the lowest fielding percentage in the NL by a third baseman at .948. So it's not like we're missing out on a premium defender or anything, which Senzel would likely outright be an upgrade to.

That said, it would probably take more than just Suarez to get a DeGrom type pitcher and I don't think we are in a position that we can pay that kind of price for them, so I'd say just hold onto Suarez unless someone offers something amazing for him. He is one of our best players, after all.
