MLB Trade Deadline Thread

They need get get Gallo out of New York before he needs suicide watch. This is sad

Texas needs to get him back, ASAP. He was comfortable here and next year he is going to be a beast.

 

[Illustrious Potentate]

MacKenzie Gore also going to Washington

That makes more sense

 

[fordman84]

Holy fucking robbery by SD.

Sure looks like it. Thought the Nats wanted current stars plus the top 5 prospects or some noise like that!

Think that "sources" forgot him?

 

[Kburjr]

Fuck both coasts...

Hey now, you got Quintana

 

[DraftNerd]

I don't pay that kind of money to lead the league in walks.

Billy Beane disagrees with you. Why?

(Points to geek down the table)….”because he gets on base”

Maybe he could bring some bullpen help with him.

Have no fear, Eric Hosmer is here!

 

[Illustrious Potentate]

Hosmer to the Nats too?

If that’s true, they now have 3 of the worst contracts in baseball

Nobody goes 1st to 3rd on a walk.

I like how that movie pretty well ignores Miguel Tejada, Eric Chavez and Zito-Hudson-Mulder

Last night I was seriously entertaining nothing happening on Soto. The rumors on him going to SD are just too much smoke today though.

I didn’t think Washington would, or should, come off their asking price….but here we are.

Wow

Not only that, but they included their only other good offensive player and took on another bad contract

 

[DraftNerd]

No, they don’t. But that’s why they have 8 other batters on the team.

And probably that’s what is missing this year in Washington….Soto gets on base but no one’s moving him.

SD has some batters that can move him around.

Nobody gets thrown out at third on a walk either

Hosmer? I’m just hearing his name now, and it doesn’t make sense.

...and they get Tatis back in a couple weeks

Low % play
