“Could be?” Well no s%*#, today’s the last possible day lol

Seems better to move the former OF to the OF than the 3B, no?

Agreed with all of this. I would have liked to see what the deal could have potentially looked like if we were not sending Domínguez and his salary, offsetting some of Castillo’s.

A little over 6 hours to go. I better not see Romo or Quero start tomorrow.

Not sure, but definitely tossing MLBN on when I get home for background noise during the work day. Maybe special guest Rick Hahn will be on again as well!

Hey Braves, Nacho Alvarez anymore. I’ll show myself out.

I too have been straining my brain trying to figure it out lol

He’s been a terrible defender at 2B until this year, where hes actually been good. Ron Washington as a coach does wonders

Yeah, I’m not a fan of this scenario lol get Stephenson

Haase has always hit lefties a bit. I think he only makes sense if you make no further additions at C and you pair him with like, Quero.

Apparently not happening. Possible cash considerations were sent instead (I really don’t know this)

Other than that year he came back from TJ surgery, he probably should have moved back sooner

He makes just under $3M and makes just under $6M. I know it’s not a lot of money but I would think they would try to deal away as much money as possible haha

Also Robbie Ray

At this point, I think I would mostly start Stephenson. Not really straight platoon, but Teel can find his playing time against righties catching 2-3 days a week.

I guess they have to decide if it is likely Teel will be back or if he’s a 60-day IL guy. Can’t look now but I would probably keep whichever catcher hits righties better (I know I know. Both their stats overall are bad) since Stephenson is right handed in this scenario.

A better rental pitcher than Castillo or Stephenson trade I would qualify as better than Brazobán and Castillo lol

I kind of only expect 2 but I guess if you’re figuring they deal for a SP, a C, deal away Hays, and maybe another deal like trading a reliever or 2 from the pen then I can see why you’d take the over

Oh I thought you meant they had to make a 40-man/60-day IL decision on him. My bad. He’ll either be traded or activated (currently have the 40-man spot open) and DFA’d

They can trade someone while they are on the IL

Surprised it wasn’t just a package

Now, I thought that this was odd until I realized the Phillies are in 2nd place and hold a WC spot. Thought they were a lot worse for some reason

I do hope that changes in the next CBA (and saw it in the players proposal) that you can keep/place guys on the 60-day IL in offseason. Though, if you make that commitment, they should have to be IL’d the first 60 days next season to avoid manipulation. Just like when you place them on 60-day when Spring Training starts.

Eric Haase the catching addition?

And you wouldn’t even hear half the names that were likely placed on waivers
