Mets are selling as anticipated.

My prediction is that Getz acquires Holmes and Torrens.

I said trade for those 2 at least a week ago. Was the 1st one to bring up Torrens even before the Torrens rumors came out. Pretty easy just scanning expected sellers catchers to spot a potential Getz guy like Torrens.

Was there any discussion on the Eric Lauer speculation with the Dodgers ? He's about what I'm expecting but you never know. Could be our Fedde/ Kay type addition that won't cost a bunch.

Dodgers are 9-0 when he starts.

Teel will be back in 3 weeks.

just muddle thru til then at catcher

Go get Trevor rogers of the Orioles and call it good.

we don't know that and he has been struggling. But imagine a platoon of Teel and Stephenson in September into October, much better

They really should not be counting on Teel for much.

I'd be down for Kirby. He's been about a 2.0 fWAR starter for the last two years, with a potential upside in the 4 fWAR range (given what he did before 2025/2026). Don't know what he'd cost though.

And wasn’t him being back in 3 weeks optimistic?

f*** it, now I want Detmers again.

Hagen Smith and Wolkow.

The Sox won't regret it cause the Angels will absolutely not develop them.

But some dork on this site said he wasn’t as highly thought of as a trade target as Dieters is because of his race.

When will the woke brainwashing nonsense end?

For some reason I thought Rutschman was way younger and had way more years left before free agency. I can’t believe he’s 28, going on his 5th season of pro ball, and will be a free agent after next season. Just wild.

Boy that really hurt your feelings, didn't it. I was talking about people like you, not the MLB.

We about to find out if Getz is a madman as a buyer or just kind of chill

Its starting to heat up!

It’s definitely good the Angels are open to selling their controllable guys. That option will help keep rental prices in check to some extent. A couple more teams deciding to sell would be swell too. I know the idea is “every team needs SP” but there will certainly be teams who prioritize other needs over it and a few teams on the fringes who will neither buy or sell. Given there are quite a few SP options, there is zero reason to think Getz won’t be able to land an upgrade.

If the price for Peralta was more than Smith and Wolkow, that seems really light for Detmers.
