Max Scherzer trade discussion thread

[TwistedLogic]

I think moves this big warrant their own discussions.

 

[Laika]

Always the Padres.

[glory]

Of course they are.

[RobinThicc]

Dodgers probably get Berrios now

[TwistedLogic]

[Ray]

The amount of prospects the Padres have given up since 2019 might literally be unprecedented.

 

Preller is crazy, but damn is he exciting lol.

[Spanky99]

Well, it was going to be them or the Dodgers regardless. Rather see him go to SD, to be honest.

[DigitalRock]

Always seems like the same teams , oh well we are not ready for a World Series this year.

Scherzer requested the NLW, much better for us in the AL.

[Jays24]

Friggin Padres man. Their 6th starter would be a #2 on most teams. It's ridiculous.

[saskjayfan]

Of course they are.

 

They've acquired Clevinger, Darvish, Musgrove, snell and Scherzer....that's all the way into the deep end of the pool. We've left the kids shallow end....stuck in the middle.

They now can exclusively talk extension to boot, lol.

 

Also, Blake Snell sucks.

[G-Snarls]

Padres preventing the Dodgers from getting him

[JaysAllMighty]

Better them than Yankees or Red Sox.

Padres are surely very interested and aggressive in their pursuit of top trade target Max Scherzer, but source insists there are “multiple teams” still with a chance. Those teams are believed to include the Dodgers, and perhaps the Giants, Red Sox and another team.

I feel like we should trade for Snell. We usually try and trade for guys when they are having bad years.

This is what it looks like when a GM actually means it when they want to win now and gunning for the pennant in a tough division, not just content chasing the 2nd wild card.

And they are still in 3rd place in the NL West...

[Spanky99]

So is Heyman trolling us, I was hitting F5 on Kenny Ken's twitter account to hear of the return.

He's Robbie Ray 2.0 except his bad season this year isn't as bad as Robbie's bad from a year ago. We traded for Matz too. I hate to say Shatkins has a type, but struggling lefties seem to be their thing.

Robbie Ray was pitching a 1-4 record, 7.84 ERA, 7.29 FIP and 9.00 BB/9 when Toronto acquired him. He was so bad the DBacks threw in 300k in the trade and we only gave up Travis Bergen. Then Bergen was DFA’d by ARI in Feb.

Sources say other teams are still trying to top Padres for Scherzer. Nationals and Padres essentially have agreed on players in trade. Situation may be complicated by Scherzer’s ability to veto any trade and effectively choose next club.

I was responding to Spanky's he sux. I said he isn't as bad as Robbie was and those numbers were in 31 innings. I'm just saying if the Jays swooped in to get Snell because they wanted to clear salary for getting Scherzer....I'd be fine with that move..lol. We've had pretty decent success on 2 lefties this year!

[BlueRocky]

[TwistedLogic]

Holy s***!

 

[RobinThicc]

Maybe Scherzer blocked the trade to San Diego.

[Spanky99]

Maybe Scherzer blocked the trade to San Diego.

 

He has that control, yes.

[G-Snarls]

Turner plus Scherzer would be such a game changer
