Buehrle>Wood

A Baseball America top 100 guy and 2 others in the Twins top 15? All having huge years? What other trades netted 3 of a team's top 15 other than Soto and, well, the other trade the Reds made.

Back to back

If there is something, feels like it will be with the Cubs

Do you believe at this point the Sox will trade for a position player or starting pitcher?

Seems like a hefty price on the surface

Not Steve Cishek is the one true insider to rule them all

One of their 90 year old beat writers said they have a trade to announce shortly.

Twins have made another trade

I mean it makes sense in a vacuum if SD pays all his contract. He's better than whatever they're playing at 1B

Hosmer to the Red Sox

Gallo to Dodgers looks like

And sign them we will

He's probably not rejecting a trade to KC

Nitengale says the deal is done. No Hosmer. Sad.

They are apparently paying his full next 3 years anyways so I'm not sure what the hold up is.

Why?

Hosmer rejected the trade. Now we shall see what happens

Preller should be fires on the spot if this falls through but I imagine there contingency

[Heyman] Eric Hosmer has a no-trade and hasn’t consented yet. Belief is they will figure this out however, one way or another. Do it Eric

Morosi, Heyman and Bob all saying now a Padres Soto deal is very close but not done

Get the worse player, take 5 million on, and give up additional cash. Brilliant GMing

Yes unless bos takes the ptbnl.

Yeah fair enough. Hahn is awful so didn't mean to even inadvertently defend him.

Since he took over as GM, I have him bringing in 95 WAR as GM. He has given up 135 WAR though. So yeah he been worth -40 WAR in trades. As awful as Hahn is I doubt he's that bad, but maybe. He's been better of late though, albeit that may because the prospects he's given up haven't had time to accumulate anything

And Prellers trades have been largely bad, aside from the obvious one.
