Can talk about 2027 then and the looming short season/no baseball.Seems like there is a unified opinion of “uuuuuugh these fuckin guys”, no?That’s how I read the board lol

11 hours ago11 hr Someone on Twitter mentioned trading for James McCann and…I don’t hate it, necessarily.
11 hours ago11 hr Mason Miller is apparently available. There’s a move that I think is a bad idea in my rational brain, but would immediately jump for joy and begin rationalizing the second it happened.

11 hours ago11 hr I actually would despise selling the farm for a reliever. Gross. If you are going to lobotomize the farm you need a controllable top end starting pitcher so much more.
10 hours ago10 hr Put catcher at the tippy top of the list with pitcher now.Teel is out for 6-12 weeks. Way past the deadline. You can't roll with this group.

9 hours ago9 hr https://sports.yahoo.com/articles/5-mlb-teams-stop-pretending-161811229.htmlYankees looking at all the top of class catchers...Goodman Jeffers Langeliers Rutschman, etc."Upgrading at the position will be an important move for New York if it can find a way to do so. Rockies slugger Hunter Goodman and Twins backstop Ryan Jeffers have been linked to the Yankees as the deadline creeps closer, and a trade for either one would instantly solve the team’s most glaring need. Shea Langeliers would certainly do the trick as well if the A’s can be convinced to part ways with the AL’s starting catcher in the All-Star Game."sI.com has Sox looking for pitching help, after top two guys, says Kay has been serviceable but need more reliability/predictability to make/advance in postseason Edited 9 hours ago9 hr by caulfield12

9 hours ago9 hr Granted, there could be other possibilities if the Red Sox are willing to pony up, like the Rockies’ Hunter Goodman (controllable through 2029). What might Goodman cost? The Athletic's Jim Bowden (subscription required) offered up a hypothetical package of left-hander Connelly Early, right-hander Kyson Witherspoon (Boston’s No. 4 prospect), infielder Marcelo Mayer and catcher Carlos Narváez in exchange for the Colorado All-Star.mlb.comCan basically forget Goodman.Orioles want pitching help for Rutschman.Jeffers/Caratini....Twins will help Sox?Langeliers apparentky will be held by A's through inaugural season of new LV stadium.

8 hours ago8 hr I am of the mindset that if there is a work stoppage in 2027, it makes more sense to hold on to prospects and go on a race to the playoffs with what they have. It seems like that makes more sense than trading away the farm for pitching or catchers with at least a year left on their deal.Having said that I could be talked into trading from the infielders in the system for starting pitching under contract.
