Jays Trade Deadline Thread

[Deadpool]

Have there been any rumors out there about BlueJays players who have passed through waivers in August?

 

I assume the jays have tried to pass everyone through, did Donaldson or Estrada get through???

 

It's been my experience that August waivers are almost never reported until a trade happens.

Every team waives pretty much all their players, even just to see who's interested. They're revocable so you never hear about it until a trade is in the works/made.

Pretty good chance Estrada, Grandy, and Clippard will clear or have cleared. Just a matter of which pile of s*** the Jays will accept in return for them.

 

JD is the one to watch for. He can't be put on waivers yet until he starts his rehab (I think) so we'll have to wait.

I think it would be announced by now if anyone doesn't clear.

Well, if they were traded/let go... If they were claimed and pulled back, there'd likely be no announcement...

Nick Tepesch traded to the Tigers for cash considerations.

This is actually worth nothing that hes now out of the origination and we don't have to watch him make a spot start.

I'm glad the jays traded this guy but my question is why in the world would the tigers

want this guy.

They're probably promoting someone and need him to eat innings for their minor league affiliates.

If you really want to lose a game in September to move up in the draft. This is your guy to put on the mound.

They sent him to AA, must have been short on pitching depth in the high minors.

We should be stocking up on those guys.

[Brownie19]

I've love to know how much money they got for him. Is he worth $100?

Probably whatever cash the GM had in his pocket at the time

[LGBJ29]

Al Avila: What will it take for Nick Tepesch?

 

Ross Atkins: Open your wallet

 

Avila: I've got a paperclip, a bottle cap and an expired Wendy's Coupon

 

Atkins: ... Done

Jays don't need help to move up in the draft

I think you underestimate how bad some of the teams ahead of us in the draft are.

I have faith in this leadership that one spot won't mean much with draft talent. Their last draft was awesome.

One spot no, but getting into that top 5 would be nice. I don't see them catching any of those gong show teams though.

[Slade]

One spot no, but getting into that top 5 would be nice. I don't see them catching any of those gong show teams though.

 

I don't see us getting much worse/better than where we are so that probably puts us around pick 10-11.

[Sorrow]

There are legitimately 9-10 teams as bad, if not worse than Toronto at the moment. It would be nice to get into the top 10 for the draft and maybe scoop someone up for the supplemental round via JD.

2nd round supplemental, if he doesn't sign here.

[glory]

Yeah the JD comp pick will be after the 2nd round so it will be in the 70's probably. Bright side of that is it will increase the team's draft budget. Still rather have a couple of prospects though if some team is willing to ante up this month. I doubt it.
