MLB Trade Deadline Thread - Non Jays rumours and news
BTS replied to TheHurl's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Braves have moved 500k in pool money now for Brach and Venters. -
Same thing happened to me in DDL and I moved him for the same return you did. I don’t think people really trust him to keep it up.
-
Yeah, of course.
-
Offseason. Then keep them as high as 14 through to next years draft cut if you only want to protect 18 MLB players.
-
He’s reasonable to trade with, actively pursues deals, and puts time into his lineup even though his team is bad. Unless he’s making consistently disastrous moves, which Jim isn’t, that makes a very good owner.

Happ traded to NYY for Brandon Drury and Billy McKinney
BTS replied to BTS's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
Grant, do you follow baseball anymore? If so, it’s OK to just say you were wrong about the team getting significantly more than the Drury, Contreras, Gallegos package. I understand why someone might prefer the McKinney deal, but doubling down to the point that you’re throwing Justin Upton comes on McKinney is undignified. -

BTS replied to BTS's topic in Toronto Blue Jays Talk
I think Gallegos was the third piece in the proposed deal you're talking about after Drury and Roancy Contreras. -
It's against the rules for someone to own multiple teams.
-
People should be more open-minded about who joins these leagues. There was concern about Jim and he’s been a great addition to BORED.
-
Also, can someone give me cliffs about how John Axford came to start this game?
-
Gurriel is starting to look like an exciting piece.
-
lol, the same thing happened to me when I looked him up after the trade
-
Sure. But I don’t actually see any similar upside to using that small amount of projected value in September instead. In fact, as king says, it’s a PR nightmare waiting to happen with nothing to really be gained.
-
I see it like this: the probability of those games meaning something is 0. The probability of two weeks of games in April meaning something is a bit bigger than that. The team doesn’t look great in 2019, but I’m expecting it to be a Rays-style team that will project around 0.500 while hoping to get lucky and pick up a WC spot. I’d prefer to have Vlad for two of those weeks than two weeks at the end of a season that’s already 100% lost.
-
Oh I have no idea what they will do - I wouldn’t be that surprised if they give him MLB time in September. But I feel very strongly about what they shouldn’t do. I don’t think there’s a sound argument for promoting him.
-
That’s absolutely what they should do. Maybe give him a month off before going to winter league if they feel he needs to make up the ABs he lost while hurt.

Yuck

http://www.wbur.org/onlyagame/2018/07/20/military-sports-astore-francona Good read on the increased prevalence of paid patriotism in sports.
-
Juan Soto is absurd. Like getting in on Pujols on the ground floor, only he’s 19 and plays outfield.
-
MiLB 3rd gets Leake at this point.
-
tercet’s gonna need a lot more bills for his “f*** BURLINGTONBANDIT” picture
-
He hits the ball very hard. I think he's something like a 100-110 wRC+ guy. Which doesn't necessarily play in an everyday role if the defense doesn't improve.
-
I don't think a pitcher's service clock will (or should) be a consideration when deciding whether SRF should get MLB time down the stretch.
-
Seems unlikely to turn the defense around next year at 26 years old. I'm kind of hoping there's an offseason trade out there for an intriguing MLB ready pitcher or something.
-
Curious about what everyone thinks about Hernandez at this point. He's undeniably a talented hitter, but he's not going to provide value on the bases and the defense is bad. He's been about a 1-win player so far in his career, and projections think that's about his level. I'm really not a fan of the overall skill set at this point.
