  1. And Anthony Franco of MLBTR scooped me by mere seconds on this…
  2. Per Rotoworld, the Padres are close on Scherzer…
  3. Philadelphia is not out of anything. Their remaining schedule is relatively easy and Fangraphs has them winning the NL East…
  4. Not like he can make trades all by himself…
  5. Just pitched so he’s unavailable for a while and he has options. It’s temporary
  6. They are legitimate DFA candidates, but also because Bloom might not give as much importance to 18-25 IP samples as you prefer.
  7. BB/9 is more about control than command…
  8. The main problem with Price type deals is often the last 2-3 years. So the preference is to not bother with the good productive years and skip right to the questionable ones?
  9. Especially since they can no longer drink from the anabolic Fountain of Yourh…
  10. Well, he speaks very highly of you…
  11. Brad Hand to the Blue Jays Cesar Hernandez to the White Sox
  12. Just in August
  13. While I o hate to see the Yankees get Gallo, the lone bright spot for me is that I have him on my fantasy team and outside of Colorado, this was about the best place he could have gone...
  14. But for how many years do you extend a 37yo pitcher with 2500 career IP?
  15. So in this case, the contract and control do not align. Conflict resolved. They are both right and I'm the dumbass...
  16. It does imply it. Sherman says "the ret of the season." Bowden says "all ofthe remaining contract." Who is right? Sherman's take does make more sense. Unless Texas is a phenomenally stupid franchise...
  17. Twins RHP Jose Berrios. https://www.baseball-reference.com/players/b/berrijo01.shtml Don't be embarrassed. not knowing all this probably means you have a life...
  18. I'm not as high on some of them as you. I would not deal Casas or Duran for a rental. I might move Downs for the right rental. I would be more hesitant with Seabold than Downs, but only because Seabold is so close to MLB. Jimenez, Bello, Ramirez and Yorke are all in play, however. The Sox could probably get a worthwhile rental like Schoop for an inconsequential minor leaguer. But for an impact player, they will have to give to get...
  19. Would you trade Duran for Berrios? Berrios is the best name available who is not a rental, as he is controlled for 2023. But his price tag is probably also a lot higher than it will be for the rental Scherzer..
  20. He has come a long way, but he is not some sort of unique talent that cannot be found in any other farm system, either. The farm is getting better, and it is light years ahead of the 2018-2019 systems. But I don't think the Sox prospects are as highly regarded by other GMs as they are by many Sox fans...
  21. Joel Sherman has a different and more specific take, which is probably correct. "The Yankees will be receiving more than Joey Gallo and Joely Rodriguez from the Rangers – Texas also is paying both players’ salaries the rest of the season, The Post has learned." https://nypost.com/2021/07/29/the-yankees-joey-gallo-trade-just-got-a-little-bit-better/ To be fair, it's not like Sherman states Texas is paying 2022 or NY is. He sort of implies it through omission, which is not the same.
  22. From mlbtr: "July 29, 7:20am: The Rangers are paying all of Gallo’s remaining contract, tweets Jim Bowden of The Athletic." Ambiguity?
  23. Well, they had to get something out of this deal. They clearly did not want good prospects. Apparently all they wanted was to foot the bill...
