[Trouba95]

Pls no Clinton Hollon

[Caper]

I never heard of Nick Wells until right now.

[TwistedLogic]

[fatcowxlive]

 

Nick Wells + Jake Brentz + 1

[GD]

Trade ALL the lefties

[Trouba95]

Brentz also included in deal

[Atothe]

Mariners getting good value for Lowe, intriguing young lefties with good stuff

[Angrioter]

WTF

 

Wells, Brentz lol

 

So far: (Norris, Labourt, Boyd, Wells, Brentz) lefties

One of those guys may one day become J A Happ

Nice job AA. You get the most underrated reliever on the market (I didn't even know he was good this year) for meh prospect. Also he has a good chance of resigning him. 6 Hawkins 7 Cecil 8 Sanchez 9 Lowe

[fatcowxlive]

Thats pretty good for Seattle for a rental reliever. I bet they are glad they brought him back for nothing.

 

Good trade for both teams

All in

 

be honest you had never heard of these people before

[Boxcar]

Uh oh! The next guy better be Navarro because I don't think the board can handle losing another shitbag nothing prospect!

[KingKat]

be honest you had never heard of these people before

 

Brentz was pretty hyped at draft time. Over slot guy IIRC.

Not to rain on this Lowe love-in, but while he's been good this year, he's been somewhere between meh-and-atrocious the rest of his career. Non-2015 K/BB rate of 1.9, r u kidding? No Jays RP (other than pre-injury Sanchez) anywhere close to that level of control futility. Good on the mariners for getting 3 warm bodies for this guy. Not sure how he's anything other than a lateral move for the BJs. Hope he continues pitching as well as he has in 2015. Regression to the mean suggests he won't.

[Angrioter]

Rob Rasmussen, Jake Brentz and Nick Wells

 

2 trades, 6 lefties

[Sammy225]

If your left handed i am sorry but you gotta go your not normal.

[burlingtonbandit]

Nick Wells was interesting but I'm hardly going to lose sleep over losing a super longshot when you are actually getting a good reliever back. There really is no bad pitcher in the pen now which has a lot of value so Gibby can't f*** up as bad.

Smoral to the Phillies for Revere

He's not a SP. RP's have very volatile seasons, look at Delabar. He's pitching really well this year and we happen to need someone for this year.

[fatcowxlive]

Oh no! Not Rasmussen!

 

lmao

Rob Rasmussen, Jake Brentz and Nick Wells

Would you rather trade righties? Most hitters bat from the right side.

Smoral + Borucki
