July 29, 20214 yr My guesses on the deadline deals because I am bored: Ryan Tepera for Reynaldo Lopez and Konnor Pilkington Josh Harrison, Daniel Hudson and Kyle Schwarber for Jimmy Lambert, Micker Adolfo, Jose Rodriguez and Yermin Mercedes
July 29, 20214 yr 7 minutes ago, Squirmin' for Yermin said: Any predictions at this time @Y2Jimmy0, @raBBit, @Harold's Leg Lift? No predictions from me. I thought they’d land Eduardo Escobar. Made too much sense. No idea what they’re doing.

July 29, 20214 yr I'm hoping for KB + Tepera, I know it won't happen but I can live with Leury at 2b if we land KB
July 29, 20214 yr He had some info on the whole Yermin episode, so he has a source somewhere. But he also said this isn't a scoop, just a hunch. I'm extremely hesitant to think they have real interest in Baez given he's got a foot injury right now. With the Sox apparently very focused on medicals, you'd think that would put him out of consideration. Edited July 29, 20214 yr by chw42
July 29, 20214 yr Escobar has slashed .247/.324/.525 with 7 Hrs with 21 Rbis and 10BB/21Ks in 101 ABs since his "injury". If that is alarming from a health sense...how are they okay with any of their injured players returning ahead of schedule? Edited July 29, 20214 yr by EloyJenkins

July 29, 20214 yr If they stand part they are going to be absolutely obliterated on social media and probably nationally too.

Maybe that's what they're harping on.

July 29, 20214 yr 4 minutes ago, HOFHurt35 said: I'm moving Moncada to 2B if I get Kris Bryant. It's that simple. Sorry Yoan, you make room for a former MVP. Doesn't Bryant move around because he is acceptable defensively all over but not really good anywhere? Why move a really good for a 3B for a mediocre one?
July 29, 20214 yr 2 minutes ago, HOFHurt35 said: I'm moving Moncada to 2B if I get Kris Bryant. It's that simple. Sorry Yoan, you make room for a former MVP. Bryant wasn't an mvp because of his outstanding defense at 3rd, no need to move Yoan when Bryant can play multiple positions

Maybe that's what they're harping on. interesting thought. this team does seem to have been very proactive on the vaccine front, where the Cubs are one of the worst. I still to this day...do not understand how any athlete has not gotten a simple shot that will potentially protect their millions in earning potential.

Why move a really good for a 3B for a mediocre one? Easy answer: you don't. These moving Moncada around ideas that get thrown here everyday sound great in a video game to patch holes. They don't work in reality.
