Jason Adam (TB) to the Padres
Lesko. Padres had just three guys for the back end. Now they have four to tip the balance. Heard Fairbanks going to a NY team as well. Seems certain SD will add a 3/4 starter to really lock in postseason contention. Finally Tatis back in about 2-3 weeks.

Fire Chris Getz
practically guaranteed those guys traded within the division will almost automatically improve and make Getz look even dumber

How the F are we ever going to build an offense?
Nor is Thorpe going to end the year with significant value. We shall see. Kopech might end up with the highest return... similar to Fedde.

Post Draft Top 30 (BA)
We are going to have to take some chances with Korean Japanese and even Taiwanese at some point. Cuba has dried up almost completely now.

Until next stadium…only eight to ten years or so.

Post Draft Top 30 (BA)
Wolkow so low seems ridiculous. Don't forget Ramos and Yosimar Cousin from Cuba... Don't forget helping Dodgers with their #16 prospect...nice of the Sox to always chip in. NEWS SCORES SCHEDULE STATS https://www.mlb.com/prospects/dodgers/hyun-seok-jang-815794 Scouting grades: Fastball: 60 | Curveball: 60 | Slider: 60 | Changeup: 50 | Control: 50 | Overall: 45 Jang projected as the No. 1 overall pick in the Korea Baseball Organization's September 2023 draft until he announced a month beforehand that he would rather pursue his dream of pitching in Major League Baseball. The Dodgers, who signed the first Korean big leaguer (Chan Ho Park) in 1994, coveted Jang but had little cash remaining in their 2023 international allotment. They traded righty pitching prospects Aldrin Batista and Maximo Martinez to the White Sox for $1 million in bonus pool money, then signed Jang for $900,000. Jang's four-seam fastball parks at 93-95 mph and tops out at 97 with carry up in the strike zone, and he could add more velocity as he continues add strength to his 6-foot-4 frame. His advanced feel for spin results in a pair of plus breaking balls, a hard 84-87 mph slider and a 76-82 mph curveball with downer break. While his fading 82-86 mph changeup isn't as advanced as the rest of his repertoire, it could become an average pitch as he uses it more often. Though there's some effort in Jang's delivery, his arm works well and his mechanics aren't a concern. He had no trouble throwing strikes as an amateur and has all of the ingredients to become a mid-rotation starter. Because he helped Korea win the Asian Games last fall, he's exempt from the mandatory 18-21 months service required of his nation's males and will be able to come to the United States

As would Sirotka and Sirota. Actually, come to think of it, Shuster has been pretty decent in non high leverage work.

Sure no effort when the best CF in the AL last year. Kevin Kiermaier won it on rep alone... lifetime achievement award basically.

2.93 ERA for Fedde. Has to be worth something decent...especially cheap control for next year. Orioles going to have to make a big offseason move... trade or FA. Rutschman in absolute free fall last six weeks or so.

Yankees deep in Jazz talks
One of the prospects headed to Miami is catcher Agustin Ramirez, the Yankees' 20th-ranked prospect, according to De Nicola. Ramirez, however, was poised to vault into New York's top five in MLB Pipeline's midseason Top 30, as he has torn up the Minor Leagues this season. Infielders Jared Serna and Abrahan Ramírez are also headed to the Marlins in the deal. Serna is ranked 19th on the Yankees' prospect list. MLB.com Held onto S.Jones Dominguez.

Why would ANY acquiring team want him to start? He must have already blown away MLB career yearly innings high.
