We've Traded Javy Baez (And More...) - MLB The Show 21 Franchise (Year 3) | Ep.48

[@michaelpatras9970]

I love the Reynolds trade. 3 prospects that would take a while to develop and wouldn't be long time difference makers. In return you got a reliable CF with a decent bat, that slots right into a starting spot. On top of that, he is cheap and has team control for two extra years.

[@ndirish7124]

I traded for Reynolds in my franchise but moved him to left since he’s not super fast

[@michaelpatras9970]

@@ndirish7124 I actually did a pirates franchise and he was my everyday center fielder for like 8 years. Had .800 ops with a few gold gloves

[@veno2029]

@@michaelpatras9970 fast forward to my recent franchises with current stats Reynolds, he posts up 9 WAR seasons like nothing lmao

[@gkdunch]

man I'm really happy with that bryan reynolds trade, he seems like a perfect corner outfielder in coors and has the kind of bat we need to pair with brandon nimmo

[@bencurhan2148]

That was such a typical Pirates move, trading away Bryan Reynolds in his prime to avoid paying 4-5 million in arbitration.

[@MrHurriicane]

And already getting ready to trade Hayes apparently...

[@cantripleplays]

Someone needs to buy the pirates and put real money into it

[@nicnames8396]

I don't want to sound demanding Cane, BUT I NEED SOME MORE VIDEOS. I'm really enjoying the content recently that you've been putting out and the Rockies Franchise is becoming one of my favorites

[@joeym9573]

Agreed I think he needs to speed up the franchise and sim more so we can watch the young players develop and actually play in the majors

[@mrobb38]

Agree, I've been loving this series. Always excited to get that notification.

[@justinnicholas3166]

i love the bryan reynolds move I used him in a pirates franchise and he always had an ops around 900, and his swing actually feels good

[@beefkake5]

Great moves! Also, side note - I know the expectations are different, but I love the juxtaposition of the “season of Dom” batting .223 and “struggling Trea” batting .232 lol.

[@bakedtortilla3338]

Cautiously optimistic for Rocktober, love the trade for Reynolds too, he seems like a great fit

Why’s Toglia so low?

[@clayramsey3218]

@@domino__effect212 The thing that's gonna hurt him in the long term is that the game gave him C potential. He is the 2nd highest ranked C potential on this list, only behind Kevin Feliciano.

This is truly one of the best channels and series here on YT. Thank you Cane for the hard work 🙏🏽

This series made me fall in love with baseball again since I was young. So thank you Cane. Go M’s!

[@spazix2944]

Yo cane. I love your content man. You deserve more subscribers for real. The way you do your franchises is unmatched. I was just wondering if your doing a franchise in madden 22 like the broncos franchise on this channel. Either way I love your content on both channels. I literally ran out of stuff to watch so I watched the Bucs series again😂 probably my all time favorite series of all time. But really love it man keep up the great work

[@rileylarson3839]

He just started a new series with the New York Giants on his other channel! Three episodes are already out so you've got a nice block to watch right away

[@cfbisbetterthantheNFL]

I know it was tough, but I'm glad you moved on from Tapia. He's a solid player that just doesn't quite fit in the organization right now. You got a better player in Reynolds anyway.

[@daniel9487]

The Reynolds trade is A+++. Now I can wear my Reynolds t-shirt while I watch your videos!

[@johnshepard313]

Not sure if we have the same mlb minor roster or if it's just a player in the game, but Arol Vera became a stud in my A's franchise. Great pickup

[@nicholasvanderham5529]

I love the trade deadline it’s tough to get rid of tapia but getting a reliever prospect that the organization is very thin at that is a great trade. The Baez trade was good to as you got two great prospects. The Reynolds trade was great give up a few B potentials but that is fine as he will make an immediate impact at the top of the order

[@danysheply527]

David Geronimo is already so good, he’s gonna be a piece you can build around he’s gonna explode next season even more then this season

[@LukeWarm612]

The 🐐 of KZbin franchise

[@kmoss30]

Yonny Chirinos' FIP scares me, he's an entire 1. difference between that and his era which usually means a defense is bailing that pitcher out. I hope the regression doesn't come during this run though that would be a huge blow

[@WhiteMambalmao]

what does FIP mean?

[@user-hc9nm3yw7z]

Reynolds trade was superb. Between him, nimmo, Turner (he will 10000% bounce back) you have an excellent trio to combine with mcmahon and France, while geronimo continues to develop and Schaffer makes his way up. The bats are in a great spot going forward 🔥🔥

[@lastpenny849]

The Reynolds trade looks good, great having a lefty too. But how good is Nimmo? That guy is playing out of his skin.

[@samdeabler9979]

Your whole organization got better today. It’s crazy

[@matthewgouge8147]

Anyway we could get Geronimos gear fixed? Maybe the stance socks with just tape on the arms?

[@kevinsobiski5212]

Great moves. Reynolds is exactly what the lineup needed.

[@ctffandom]

Love the Bryan Reynolds move!

[@arkhamknight9991]

Cane, a player you should trade for is Nick Solak on the Rangers. I had him in my franchise that I played for 10+ seasons and he was a silver slugger 2B for about 7 years straight. High contact player and he has sneaky good power, always managed to hit 20+ HRs a season. Just a suggestion. I also had Trea Turner for about 5 seasons and he only played at an Allstar-mvp level for the first 2 seasons. He got injured quite a bit and he played much better at CF than SS. By the end of the contract he was a negative WAR player and a terrible fielder. Some other great players I had in this franchise were Austin Meadows, CJ Abrams, Jack Flaherty, Nate Lowe, Miguel Amaya, Josh Jung, Corbin Carrol, And Mike Soroka to name a few.

[@kyleemlet1541]

Reynolds is a great addition, and something that didn't really come up, he actually is a good fielder and has good throw attributes, unlike any other outfielders we've had to this point. Outfield defense has been severely lacking. Love the move.

[@megamuffin15]

Still a long way to climb for this team just to complete in our division. But the Padres game is exactly what we want to see for this offense.

[@SuperGravyMan]

It may be a simulation, but seeing these Tigers trade Casey Mize for a catcher still hurts…

[@andrewmartin243]

I love the Bryan Reynolds trade... I have traded for him often and he is solid sim player as well as user player

[@dillonschroeder8614]

Reynolds played very well for me in my pirates franchise. Very good player

[@danysheply527]

As a pirates fan I absolutely love the Brian reynolds trade, great fit for your team

[@rageumanic_gaming9469]

What about putting trea in the 9 spot instead of the pitcher he gets on with the top of the order coming up with that speed might really get that offense rolling. Keep it up cane love the videos bud.

Nice job picking up Reynolds in that trade

[@jasonhays2448]

With Bryan Reynolds you finally have an outfielder with a good arm

[@evanreeges525]

That Reynolds trade is smart and I think Trea will be better at SS and at the plate

[@andrewmartin243]

I would give Nimmo another one year offer now... don't wait

[@aboyindeed]

I wish we could have traded Hampson but I guess we'll see where it goes with his development

Gotta say, love the brian reynolds trade

[@doublebraincell6458]

We have acquired a plant (Arol "Aloe" Vera) for Javy Baez.

[@adamd5849]

If Bryan Reynolds can hit around .260 with the Rockies, then the trade will be considered a win. Just need a better 5th starter

[@odogg2169]

do whatever you like but i think you should put Turner back to CF move Reynolds to LF and David to SS (because his bad arm stats)

[@TyDiEx]

Giants and Rockies in the same day?!? Bless up

[@jeremiahdavis8571]

I traded for Reynolds in my Marlins franchise and love having him on my team!

[@twism242]

Passing on the Bradley (underrated) and Mckenzie offer from CLE when the biggest issues have been consistent offensive output and pitching was an L. 2 mid 20's guys about to enter their primes with a min 3 years of control. Even worse with Turner playing subpar and Gray being inconsistent. If that CLE deal would have been added to Reynolds it would have been a great deadline. Would have also opened up the option to package Gray and Hampson together for prospects.

[@zaneplatt3533]

YES! You acquired a great on base player. Awesome job

[@NMWEYSILYSMM]

Any chance nimmo can play center? Reynolds is a better/natural player in the corner

[@37willdog]

Pretty confusing deadline. You’re setting this team up to be just mediocre for the foreseeable future. IMO, it would be better to tear it down or go all in

[@michaelpatras9970]

Got a good bat and fielder with Reynolds (with cheap control next year) and traded away mediocre prospects. Traded away a bench outfielder for relief help, and a struggling player he wasn't going to retain for a ok prospect and one that will be MLB ready in 2ish years with a high ceiling. I think this was a great deadline.
