We can. Just not over $300k on a single player.

If rosters expanded and another reliever was added to each team, they would still throw a bench player in blow outs yo save arms.

Yeah as I feel it should. Schoop raked last year but struggled to open the year. Hes been hitting the past month though and has a year of control left. O's may be better off waiting until the off-season to move him.

I'm sure they were in on Escobar and Cabrera given the timing of the deal.

Or you can even get a look in September and have him open next year in the minors.

They'd have a chance at being competitive and could let him walk with a QO. Honestly, I'd have to think long and hard and probably lean towards trade.

Teams have seen how he's been throwing, but he hasn't had a track record of health which is a point teams would bring up. Should take a haul to move him honestly. Don't think they trade him.

Team option next year.

?

Who's dog did Montgomery kick?

Thanks.

Do they have any recent Latin amateurs that are about 17/18 ala Tatis Jr trade?

It might be an awful farm system but we're talking about dealing Soria here, not Chris Sale.

Yeah very unlikely. Shields isn't really worth anything. He'll go to a team that just needs innings until October only to be left off the playoff roster.

Yeah he didn't really look injured hustling the last steps going into first. Meanwhile, Paul Goldschmidt almost ran out a ground ball to the 1B that was close enough to review.

Yeah that was bad. Directly effected the outcome of the game.

Need him to go on a Matt Carpenter run over the next week.

Don't buy it. There's always a guy or two who gets traded mid-game and has to exit the game.

I hate this. It's not sustainable over a full MLB season and you only really see it in the postseason when it's do or die.

Unfortunately, it takes two to tango.

I'd feel pathetic if I got carted off the field for a non-leg related injury haha

I'm going to predict Jose doesn't get traded due to him playing like shit lately and Soria gets dealt for less than some are predicting on here.

And this is why you don't worry about having too much depth at certain positions or worry about drafting for need.

That "more control" is sort of an expensive option.
