Headline of week for small markets

Brewers reportedly acquire SP Dustin May from rival Cardinals after missing out on Tarik Skubal

Or the Orioles capitulating by dealing Rutschman for a boatload of more prospects...

Time for Rays Yankees or Preller to do something crazy...

    We have no excuse not to buy a top-end SP in free agency this offseason. As such, I’d rather keep Bonemer and go with a cheaper SP at the deadline. I truly believe we should not be doing “all-in” trad

    Trevor Bauer is an awful clubhouse fit even if you believe him innocent of any criminal wrongdoing. I also don’t understand why anyone would think a 35 year old pitching in the Nippon League or where

Are we done or 1 more pitcher coming?

Think we tried to get Holmes. Let's see about Detmers. Also is Wacha in play at all?

Who is left amongst the rentals? Singer, Rogers...

Mize. King if the Padres are going to do the weird thing where they buy and sell

Also if the Reds stay like this the GM should be fired immediately

Bart is at about 55% ABS challenge %, Romo at mid 40%, quero 46% so that may be an improvement.

Teel is 39%

I couldn't disagree with this more. It goes from a .492 OPS auto-out to a .680 OPS, which is basically in between Derek Hill and Braden Montgomery. It's not great, but at least it's a real MLB hitter

listen from 2014-2017 people kept trying to do this thing where they'd tell me going from really bad to just a little bad was a huge deal, but then the guy who had been just a little bad would come and be pretty bad, and the really bad would revert.

You either upgrade with a no doubt starter or you are shuffling hot hands. WE have one more guy to shuffle. That's cool. I didn't really care about catcher, I wanted a top pitcher, a no doubt one we could be pumped about. Instead we got another guy to shuffle if he gets hot. With Fedde and Schultz looking good this weekend, it's not that amazing to me.

Oh and we got bort from colorado.

Confounding factor is the Sox have a team philosophy of having their catchers be super aggressive. So a guy who is usually accurate operating under orders to never let the game end with any challenges left will become less accurate.

I mean that's cool but 40-50 points higher from the 9 spot is like...not that noticeable.

What?

43 minutes until deadline right?

Stuff will get announced afterwords though.

Am I crazy for preferring this? Quero can't be trusted to block anything.

Bart has had issues blocking too from what I recall 😆

Mize could be a QO candidate for Detroit, especially if this is a concern for potential suitors:

Did Griffin get dealt?

Sounds a lot like Joe Ryan with the medical concerns depressing his value.

Giants are starting to loosen up. Miller was a good get.

I thought the Tigers wouldn’t get more than 4th rounder by offering a QO?

One interesting trend, there wasn't a beep of rumors or leaks related to any of the deals the Sox made. I think that is a huge improvement from the FO's of the past as well.

I think they would be hoping he accepts it

I do find the Detmers love interesting. He had a good June but other then that? Meh. He's only gone past 5 innings once in July. And I'm sure because he's controllable, the price was probably very high.

No, so he's another one

I think you posted this as a gotcha, but that blocks above average number has me feeling better about the trade in all honesty.
