You could maybe talk me in to Newcomb and Acuna as the headliners. I don't know if I would love it, but I think it would be a pretty fair deal.
That would absolutely not be a fair deal, in fact Rays management would hang up the phone laughing IMO.
Chris Archer is already a good to very good pitcher who is young and EXTREMELY cheap while being under control until 2021.
Braves probably won't deal Swanson, but Albies and more would likely have to be included.

I think a lot depends on how Acuna is valued by different teams, but as I've looked in to the Archer market you are probably correct that that wouldn't get it done. I had forgotten about those massive asks in the talks with Boston at the deadline.
I don't think Albies is on the table either, it wouldn't make sense to worsen the ML team if you are paying massive for a guy like Archer.
Anderson, Newcomb, Acuna, Touki, Fried, Smith, Blair, maybe? That doesn't make any sense at all for the Braves, as they've spent 2+ years stockpiling massive minor league depth, but I think that is close to getting it done, no?
