2016 Official Trade Deadline Thread

[pickoff22]

Man I love this day. Can't refresh MLBTR enough.

 

Very happy with the trades the Sox have pulled off so far this year, nothing scary to a Jays fan. Let's just keep Sale out of Boston please.

[OneManAsylum]

Abad is ok but hardly anyone to be worried about. If that's the best the sox do good for us. Logan would be a nice pickup

[saskjayfan]

Even if thats true that is an if right now championship teams don't rely on ifs

Anyways we need a starter. Sanchez to the pen means we have a rotation of

 

Estarda

Happ

Hutch

Dickey

Stroman

 

Dickey and Stroman are having struggling years. Hutch who knows. What concerns me most is that if Estrada gets hurt we are looking at Chavez starting? Not good.

 

Need to get another depth starter to sure up things

 

baseball if full of ifs....I wouldn't move sanchez to the bullpen, but I see your point if that's definitely the route they plan to go. I'm sure they are trying to get a starter. Santana could be on his way.

Just got a text that Santana got traded...

 

Twins Ervin on the move possibly.

[Melvin]

Oh no, please no Ervin

[RealAccountant]

Even now if no more trades I'll be happy. I just don't want anyone else in the AL getting better

 

Right now the balance is good. If the Sox or the O's pull in a starter and we don't they will be favs

[UKBlueJaysFan]

Could do a 2015 Stroman and be brilliant when/if he comes back this season? I'd assume prepare him for Playoffs?

I think there is no choice Sanchez has to go to the pen.

[RealAccountant]

I have a feeling Santana goes to us or the O's

[UKBlueJaysFan]

Joe Smith and Hector Santiago from Angels surely wouldn't cost much? Not sure what you give up. I assume Hutchison and prospects? Although will need Hutch next season when Dickey goes at end of season.

[King]

Jeremy Nygaard ‏@jeremynygaard 32s33 seconds agoSource tells me Ervin Santana is on the move. Waiting for more details...

 

Jeremy Nygaard ‏@jeremynygaard 36s37 seconds ago

Text was simply "Santana gone."

[saskjayfan]

I think there is no choice Sanchez has to go to the pen.

 

There's always a choice...there isn't enough scientific evidence on the subject. One could argue putting him in the bullpen could cause more harm. They should probably let him pitch or shut him down.

Cubs are in on Smith

[bowld]

I am not sold on Santana so hopefully someone outbid us.

Scout says RHP Drew Hutchison would make lot of sense fronting #BlueJays package for Ervin Santana. Has 30 MLB wins, 3.26 ERA at AAA .

 

 

Lmao!!

If all we are doing is taking on his contract then it isn't a bad deal.
