You mean those would be the only guys who could fetch a good young SS in a one-for-one deal, or as the headliner in a multi-prospect deal? I'm not versed in that feature of fangraphs to check.
In any case, that wouldn't be what I'm suggesting because you'd be giving up current contributors, which doesn't make sense for either team. The premise is that the Brewers need a good current contributor at SS, whereas a number of treadmill/bad teams should consider punting on the next couple seasons. Therefore, it would be a package of younger players who aren't MLB-ready yet, including Pratt or Pena, a corner IF/DH type, and a couple pitchers.
Hadn't you all but given up on Les Mis as a starter just a few months ago because of his command issues in AAA? I mean, I'm not blaming you for changing your mind after seeing him pitch the last 6 weeks, but between that and your insistence that Vaughn and Durbin are the answers as full-time corner IF's on a contending team with the best record in baseball, I'm starting to wonder if you've just decided that you don't give a damn about sample size anymore.
ETA: Add Perdomo and Xavier Edwards to the list of potential targets. It's mostly just a thought experiment for the sake of discussion, but I don't think it would be a bad idea if one of those teams is open to it.
