Hays needs to be decided today if they want to trade him.

They're definitely not cutting Thorpe for the likes of Joe Rock lol

Hays for Detmers who says no

Decision on Hays has to made made by August 6th, Thorpe August 17th.

Cause they were at the beginning of the year. They had to claw their way back in

What? Zero chance they don’t add a catcher.

They have been pretty bad since the ASB

Yeah I’ll take spending Jerry’s $ on Castillo over giving up Bonemer for Soriano/Detmer

Believe it should be 8 hours since the deadline is 5pm CST

I still feel like Carlson and a good second piece gets you Detmers. High end positional prospects are clearly valued a ton as we’re seeing here.

WTF

Now, I thought that this was odd until I realized the Phillies are in 2nd place and hold a WC spot. Thought they were a lot worse for some reason

Yeah it's basically just Nimmala.

The rest of the package is pretty meh though right?

I do hope that changes in the next CBA (and saw it in the players proposal) that you can keep/place guys on the 60-day IL in offseason. Though, if you make that commitment, they should have to be IL’d the first 60 days next season to avoid manipulation. Just like when you place them on 60-day when Spring Training starts.

Still think Stephenson will be coming to Sox. He’s supposedly really good catching Castillo.

It's not that Nimmala is better, it's that they'd have to offer better than him to get either guy (or at least Soriano). And the only similar prospect the Sox have that is definitely better is Bonemer.

Eric Haase the catching addition?

Interesting. I have seen Nimmala ranked pretty low some places relatively speaking. He's pretty high at fangraphs I guess though. Wasn't even in Laws mid-season top 70 if I didnt miss something.

I think we are about wrapped up.

Little over 9hrs left
