I started a new Standard game taking control of the Cubs and playing the role of Theo Einstein (GM only). I turned injuries OFF so the simulation would go quicker. As of July 1st the Cubs were in 1st place by 7 games and Arietta was 10-5 with a 2.55 ERA, unlike the real pitcher who's fallen off a cliff. So the Cubs in this save are not really desperate for a SP.
Nonetheless I attempted to trade for Quintana who is not having the greatest of seasons, the White Sox are 40-40 9 games out of first.
Selecting "Makes this work now!" wasn't surprising.
Jimenez is 5 Star potential, Cease is 4 Star & the other two are 1 star. The offer for all four prospects was considered a fair offer by the Sox and my assistant GM though I would not have done it based on Quintana's performance this year in my save.
This proves nothing. Everyone with different teams/prospects will get different results.
