Sure there are fewer teams, but if it’s the Dodgers, they are always likely the favorite.  And I do predict it’s them with Outman and Rushing the main pieces.

That would be horrible. A JAG and a 1B is an awful return and almost certainly means Beni is in the trade for salary relief (relief from fucking what? Our payroll is already extremely low next year)

Need De Paula, Freeland, Ferris and Pages

Yep, it seems like they Getz might be trying to build a patchwork lineup with sell low candidates, rather than go the prospect route.  Yuck, I really hope this isn’t the case.

I just hope that Outman is already slightly out of Getz’s age range of players he is seeking so he avoids him altogether.  Both Walker and Vargas are a few years younger.

I can't help but wonder if this dude still thinks he can push up the rebuild with a few of these kinds of guys.

Atlanta Braves traded Shelby Miller and Gabe Speier to Arizona Diamondbacks in exchange for Ender Inciarte, Aaron Blair and Dansby Swanson.

Get ready for TLR to advise his way into another massive blunder of a trade

Well all of the sudden those older players they would rather move might be in play.

The offer is prolly garbage because Elias is smelling blood in the water after the Fedde disaster. 

I bet Norby, Beavers for Crochet AND Banks. 

Dude is a shark circling his prey.

TLR will get the Sox all squared away and then become a consultant for CrowdStrike.

Yeah I want 2 of the Big 3. 

We'd be lucky to get 1 given how bad Getz is at negotiating. 

This is all for naught, they will take another weak package from LAD because of Beni.

Who are you referring to? Ripken and Palmeiro?

Agreed. I would need one of them. Getz probably caves and takes the worst of the 3

Edited July 30, 20241 yr by Squirmin' for Yermin

It will be the O's for Mullins, Mountcastle and a couple 19 year olds. Those guys will help us to not have the worst record ever and JR and Getz will take their victory lap.

I have absolutely zero faith in Getz getting anything of value from any player left on our roster. He made the worst trade of the season so far and its not even close. Anyone making Rick Hahn and Kenny look good is a moron.

We can be the Dodgers AAAA team.

Back in the day the Kansas City Athletics got labeled as being the Yankees farm system.

I think it'll be Atlanta. No idea why just a feeling. Baltimore making a trade of that caliber would be a first. 

After that horseshit yesterday, anything can happen…

PS: Watch Vargas become some 4 time all-star with us. ?

They need to make some first of a kind moves otherwise they likely will be out in the first round again.

Atlanta is the worst possible option.
