4I think the trade market for SP is going to get very expensive. Cease will probably cost a fortune and if the people on this board's opinion of 1 year of Corbin Burns is accurate, getting Bieber will cost more than the 5.6 rating he has on here.
I don't see Cleveland trading Hentges either.
The hang up for me is Hentges. I wonder if there is another way to make a deal like this work without Hentges in it because Smith-Shawver is worth much more than 1 yr of Bieber.

I agree with all of this. Maybe the Braves trade for Bieber midseason. I don't think they match up well as trade partners with the Guardians. I'd like the see Bieber pitch like a 3 or 4 WAR starter like he's been before (or 5 WAR!) and see him stay in CLE, pitching in the playoffs.
