Just looked at this again. I think you guys are right and that it would be an overpay. I had it in my head that Olt was farther along in his development than he is. I'd still like to get Ogando and Olt, but if Mes is an overpay, I'm not sure they match up so well.

If Texas is still looking for a SS, a deal involvng Didi for either would be a good idea IMO, but I'd guess that the Rangers would want more. I'm actually more interested in Ogando than Olt. I think he's the perfect power arm to close and allow Chapman to start. If they could add one for the minimum while keeping Leake as the 6th starter, it would be ideal.
