Seattle Mariners Trade Deadline Q&A
2. Obviously, Julio Rodriguez is untouchable; is anyone else in the M’s organization untouchable?
Chris
I’d say Logan Gilbert is untouchable. At least he is on all my fantasy teams that have him. The dude is just so good already and continues to get better. He’s going to continue to be the team’s ace of the future. If Cal Raleigh keeps up his production while continuing to improve behind the plate, an argument could also be made for him.

Everyone can be replaced. A player is only worth what you can get for him. Two years ago, no one would have thought Dipoto could pull off something like the Aaron Nola deal, but he did. Logan Gilbert is at the top of my no-trade list, with George Kirby right behind. Also, Cal Raleigh will be a star in the near future. Of course, all bets are off when it comes to Soto.
Andrew
I don’t think so if the conversation is Soto. I’d be reluctant to part with too much, though, for most of the other options out there.
Ed
Well, it depends if we’re talking Juan Soto or not. Everyone but J-Rod is available for him. When trading for anyone else, I’d say Noelvi Marte, Logan Gilbert, Cal Raleigh, Harry Ford, and J.P. Crawford are off the table. And it would take a heck of a deal to part with George Kirby.
