Yankees and Red Sox got some significant additions. I’m also happy so far with our deals. Brewers have also had a good deadline too IMO.

Ah ok - I was shocked by what Boston gave up, thinking he was a rental. That makes a little more sense now. Still a huge price.

I could have sworn Adley was a FA next year

Yes he is ( correction: I am an idiot ).

Greene would probably be like Carlson, Hagen Smith, McDougal, plus. They also wouldn’t even do that and would be wanting Bonemer and Braden.

Just Adley.

Maybe they go for a rental in Holmes and feel that Carlson will have more trade value in a year m, banking on him growing into more power.

If I recall the Detmers draft, our insiders had word that the Sox really liked him out of college.

Not so sure because the Os raked the Red Sox over the coals. To an extent, yes but not like the Reds will command a similar return.

I didn’t expect them to trade either of them… so it shows they’re open to moving him. If we offered Billy and a legit starting pitching prospect with a lottery ticket - I think we could pull him. Just don’t think Getz wants to do so and is in love with Carlson.

Red Sox have to resign Adley or this was fucking retarded. They also must believe they can get to the World Series. If they can get Crochet back and keep playing hot… I suppose I understand why they’re pushing this hard.

It would be a wet dream come true if we not only made it to the WS against the Dodgers but also beat the piss out of them.

Yea… Teel’s year has really hurt. Imagine if he had been healthy this entire time and had a 20 hr 20 doubles 4 bWAR season for us.

I really think he’s going to surprise a lot of people.

Yea, I agree but apparently the Mets aren’t willing to move him.

Highly suggest people watch this. Look at the defense. Rockies announcer at one point described him as, “the best centerfielder in Rockies history” after he made an amazing catch. If the brain trust ISNT able to turn him around at the dish - this is a platoon guy with outstanding defense, a laser arm, and speed that guys us a second option off the bench when pinch running may help us in close one run games. Regarding his bat - he isn’t a Coors only power threat. If we can get him right, he can hit it out in any park. The more I look into this move, the more I get it.

Right - holy flipping moly.

We’ve got 2.5 more hours of trades coming. They’re not done.

Safe to say that the Gold Glove defense will be flashing from day one and here’s the hope of form that our coaching staff can help him rediscover and build on:

Pretty sure Fuller and co have some more effective drills in mind for him than this

I’m loving it

Right arm ( well, left arm in this case )… our bullpen is done so I’m not upset. Interested to see how it stacks up compared with what we gave up for Brazobán.

Was just going to post to this point… Wonder if our Sox are indeed in active talks for him and the Halos are using these leaks to try and get us to cave on a secondary piece that we really don’t want to include.

Of course - he would be just the blue chip.

IN-FUCKING-SANE RED SOX!!! Holy fucking s%*#. They’d better bank on resigning him. WOW. That’s the biggest rental haul we will see this year hands down! ( Aside from the Skubal return of course ).
