Also not like we've heard anyone say "oh he actually isn't making hard contact and looks overmatched"

but also unneccessary. Nobody can convince me this shit moves the needle. But now if they trade colome...are they not planning to compete in 2020? Of course not. How this helps anymore than just telling the other gms on a call...whatever. They just love to talk and feel active.

not that you are saying this, but just a reminder that the sox media negotiating this last winter consistently blew up in their face

Get him to W-S, he'll start there next year. Let him find housing, settle in, and mash next year through three levels.

Eh isn’t it “Madrigal to AAA?” At this point

But like next year is it. They could have packaged up trammel in offseason for an available pitcher for more than 1 year control considering this year ain’t it for them.

I’m not sure I even sat back to wonder why the reds just did this

that’s a haul

Can they leave off trammel another year or just the 2 for 1 aspect?

And I do like Trammel but a pretty tough year for him.

Pretty surprised SD valued Trammel as better than Reyes / Allen

Love heyman

I hope people don’t treat him to that standard for long. He’s 16, thrown into team mid season. Next year will be a bit more fun.

I feel like sox probably have likely deal lined up for colome but are holding out to see if one of those that lose out on the better deals try and jump offer.

I think it's that teams aren't under as much financial constraints and expect bigger talent returns.

Juan Minaya, 2017, 90% save percentage.

Hahn on the call: "By our metrics, he's a 6 WAR closer, and you are going to give us some 17 year old trash? Give us a 26 year old AAA outfielder and be done with it"

Garcia definitely seems like a dude that we move on from and then ends up moving to the NL and having another 10 years in his career somehow.

Harry potter was the weakest harry potter name.

Quite the contrary, just don't think that same trade will work since it didn't before.

Yeah, nobody wants to be the team that misreads the market but eventually moves will need to be made and time will press.

obvs red sox now reported out but if they really are dangling benintendi for a controllable closer not having a particularly good year, then sox really should inquire.

man Daneuris Lagrange is the most harry potter name ever.

If I was a mets fan this would make me happy, but I wonder if it means Diaz will stay (not just that boston was outbid)

No, I think it's smaller than Walker.
