Trade Deadline Thread
100% my expectation as well. I would definitely do Burger in a trade for Gallo. I'm a broken record since early 2020, but Gallo is absolutely ideal for this team. I love Gallo and would love to have him go off on the White Sox so I can use him in MLB The Show diamond dynasty for the next 10+ years.

You don't trade Sheets. Can't. Trade Burger? Ok, maybe. I'd prefer not.

7/19- Twins at Sox Gm 1, 4:10
I know it's not purely Crochet's fault, but I have 0 confidence in him now and the future. I wish we'd sell high on him on the trade deadline.

Gallo would be so damn perfect on this squad. The extra year of control is SO money. Going for the series this year and next with him would be awesome.

Some notes on Joey Gallo from Ken Rosenthal
My gallo dream is fading

Yeah, at this point if you are trading Sheets you need to get either a difference maker rental or someone with a little bit more control (gallo-esque) involved. Makes no sense to trade Sheets for someone similiar who will walk after the year.

Upper Level
Was at Saturday's game. Went to Chinatown before and arrived near the ballpark at 6:10pm, 5 minutes before game time start thinking I'd be a ble to essentially walk in and maybe miss a few batters. Those lines fucking sucked. Didn't get to my seats until the bottom of the second or top of the third. As for this topic, I always go upper deck. As a poor boi it just makes a lot more sense for me. I buy the cheapest ticket in the upper most row with any sort of decent view so at worst case scenario, I can sit there usually isolated ( I hate being packed next to anyone ). 100% of the time I just move to the best possible upper deck seats were the fewest people are together. Love sitting in the upper deck. With that being said, its been getting more difficult due to the popularity. More demand, more drunk customers, everything has made the experience just a littttttle more uninviting. Although the trade off is the crowd energy during the game is unbelievably good. Saturday's crowd energy was the best energy I've been to at a game really. Would definitely vouch for cheap upper deck tickets!

Lance Lynn locked up 2 years 38 mill + club option
This deal is awesome! Perfect length. Good price for both sides. Super super excited to call Lynn a White Sock!

Byron Buxton is likely to sign extension or be traded
I have no idea what a Buxton trade would even look like. Would have to come from a team that has a ton of prospect capital.

the MLBnerds account proposing those Gallo trades is straight up awful. Out in looney land.

Trevor Story
Conforto would be incredible! He's been injured this year and he should pick it back up after the all-star break. I'm also on the Gallo train, if possible! Would have no problem shipping Crochet ++ for Gallo!

Zun was the only TBR to make it if i recall. (they added Wendle due to injury?) that could definitely play a factor ^^

Cleveland about to blow it up?
I'd be more worried that they'd be willing to outspend everyone in the division. They get a few prospect pieces to go with a couple key free agent signings and all the sudden their offense shapes up.

Cleveland about to blow it up?
Detroit is very scary. They are starting to have success this year. Mize is figuring it out, Skubal is working through the kinks, and Manning hasn't been fantastic, but is getting important training in. They have their Vaughn (Tork) coming up likely next year, Riley Greene in the future, and if they start to spend $$$ on this team like they have in the past -- watch out!
-
Cleveland about to blow it up?
IDK, they have some quality pitching coming up. If they could work an offense, they could be a threat.

Cleveland about to blow it up?
lmao @ idea of trading Bieber. That has a 0% chance of happening. It makes no sense. But yeah, I think they could sell pieces. Wouldn't Jose Ramirez make more sense to sell?
