According to that he wasn't top 50

ETA: Ok ok I will stop doing my Ryno impression now.

He was in the winter between 17 and 18 a few months after the deal. I think he was top 30 or 35 in baseball America at that time. They don’t rerank every prospect when one gets traded. You can use whatever rankings and time periods to fit your argument but trying to act like Perez wasn’t highly touted is just false. He was like 19 at the time he got dealt as well and the highest upside arm in our system.

They gave a very good package as mentioned for Verlander including Daz Cameron as well. Verlander was totally worth it without question. Meanwhile, people wanting to give away Yed, Ted or Whitley to rent MadBum are nuts. You can get those moves done with prospect depth.

We won the World Series in 2017. We lost the ALCS to the best team last season with basically the two best building blocks on our entire team hurt (Altuve and Correa). Yet he still almost got the Nats to give us Harper last year for a four-player package headlined by Bawkake but WAS ownership foolishly vetoed it.

How Luhnow has handled the trade market has been smart the past two years overall. He doesn't want to trade away any more Josh Hader level talents for junk but he's also still being aggressive.
