2019 Trade Deadline Thread

[jaysguy44]

Why not? I mean, it's plausible. Stroman is getting under-rated by you guys, me thinks.

 

Nah, I guess we'll see in the next 3-4 days.

Maybe Stroman + Vladdy for Lux

[fireballW]

The wait is getting painful. Wish they'd ay least get a little deal done (Sogard, Hudson, Galvis).

lol

Guy's top 5 in ERA/FIP/HR/9/GB%, etc, etc...

 

Not happening man, even in the PCL what Lux is doing is insane.

He's still under-rated here, and a 1 for 1... I'd be happy.

[Krylian]

Are we gonna do a 'Predict the date and time the Stroman deal breaks'?

[sdyment]

So seems like most of the Stroman chatter today is the Mets and ‘Stros. Atlanta checking in on relievers. Anyone hear anything else?

 

...and it’s very nice to see the Yanks rotation collapsing and SP injuries in both leagues. Let’s get a bidding war going!!

stro extends gets traded july 29 2023 at 4:51 pm.

[Ziggyy108]

David Phelps has been great since he's been back and healthy. We got a sweet team option with him too.

 

I wonder if his name is involved in any talks right now, either by himself, or as a sweetner to get other teams to pony up more for Stro or Giles.

[Krylian]

I'd laugh so hard at Stro if he extended given how he's been trolling the Jays.

[P2F]

Sergio Romo to the Twins. It's now being reported as finalized.

 

Lewin Diaz going the other way. Pretty decent get for the Marlins.

 

Looks like the Twins are also getting Chris Vallimont and a PTBNL. Hmm.

So people that know those prospects in the Romo deal, how does it look for a potential Giles/Hudson deal?

I'd say it has no bearing on a Giles trade. Romo is not good.

 

The Marlins essentially swapped Vallimont and a PTBNL (pitcher) for Lewin Diaz. Romo's basically a throw-in.

 

It's a weird trade.

Ken Rosenthal

@Ken_Rosenthal

One of many scenarios #Mets are exploring, per sources: Syndergaard to #Padres, then using some of return to land Stroman from #BlueJays. Not known which players would go from SD to NYM if deal occurred. RHP Cal Quantrill, a Canadian native, would be logical target for TOR.

 

Quantrill is Canadian - therefore he's the 'logical' target for the Jays. f*** off Kenny...what a pathetic attempt.

[Barkerfan23]

Twins are garbage they will definately lose AL central with acquisitions like Sergio Romo

[flafson]

So people that know those prospects in the Romo deal, how does it look for a potential Giles/Hudson deal?

 

Romo seems very similar to Hudson stats wise, advanced stats don’t like both of them but Hudson is better if you look at ERA.

[glory]

We are going to get s*** for Hudson, not that I was expecting anything for him to begin with. That’s probably all I’ve learned so far in this boring ass deadline.

 

Can something meaningful please happen soon?

Twin's are tards!

[Abomination]

Twin's are tards!

 

Probably a sideways move to try to relieve asking pressure on more elite guys like Giles.

lol... no thanks!

[Slade]

The Twins trade is so strange. The Marlins gave up a MLB asset and a good young arm to get Lewin Diaz who seems to be figuring things out this year but will need to be protected on the 40 man roster.

[Abomination]

lol... no thanks!

 

Quantrill and Nimmo maybe, with us kicking back a healthy OF?

[Orgfiller]

If that's for Stroman, strong no.

[Slade]

[P2F]

Apparently the Jays are pursuing Edwin Diaz.

 

https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2019/07/braves-dodgers-rays-jays-pursuing-edwin-diaz.html

 

The article suggests that the Jays would possibly flip Diaz, perhaps to the Braves for prospects.

[Krylian]

I'm gonna be sad when August 1st rolls around. All these rumours and speculation is exciting and intriguing.

[sdyment]

So what contracts on the Mets could we take to make the Diaz deal work with second tier prospects?

Cano?

[sdyment]

Cano?

 

Does he need to play the field? We’re not exactly short on 2b these days. How much longer has Cespedes got on his deal?

 

Edit: just looked it up... $29.5m for next year. Think Rogers would do like the Leafs and spend huge sums to improve prospect capital?
