Official 2020 Trade Deadline thread

[Brewers888]

There's our DH against lefties. no more at bats for almora.

Exactly the type of move the Brewers should have made but they would rather give at bats to Sogard and Jace Peterson. Of course I change my mind if the Cubs gave up good prospects but I doubt that is the case.

 

[Brewers888]

The Twins, Padres, and Blue Jays are all in on Lance Lynn. Texas has a real chance to make a great deal selling high on him.

 

[Brewers888]

Nightengale is not exactly reliable but according to him Hader may get traded at the deadline.

 

[Brewers888]

White Sox discussing Clevinger with the Indians. I can't see them moving him within the division and the price would be high but interesting rumor.

 

[B.A.R.]

Padres, Mariners complete 7-player deal

For the first time in his seven seasons as Padres general manager, A.J. Preller is a buyer at the Trade Deadline. What did you expect -- moderation? The Padres’ freewheeling GM put an exclamation point on a frantic weekend by finalizing a seven-player blockbuster with Seattle on Sunday night...

Jays are also apparently calling in on Simmons and Clevinger as well

 

[BringInTheLefty]

looks like Joey Gallo heading to the Rays for pitching & Lynn heading to the Blue Jays
Choo,Frazier & Montero most likely going as well

I'm hoping that Lynn news is for real, I know Jays were interested in Minor and any conceivably decent pitcher on the market. But Ryu, Lynn, Walker, Pearson is pretty good and even less pressure on Pearson when he comes back when he's facing off against not a 1/2 rotation guy on the other side.

 

[Brewers888]

Padres stole Clevinger trading a bunch of decent but not great prospects for a legit number one starter.

Not sure I’d go as far as calling him a legit number one, but definitely thought he would fetch more. Seemed like Indians went with quantity over quality

This is the type of return I fear getting for Hader. Never trade a star player without getting at least one close to sure thing prospect in return. Cleveland didn't get nearly enough for a very good starting pitcher that San Diego will now have for two more seasons after this.

 

[Brewers888]

David Stearns has gone from being the best GM in Brewers history to another clown like Doug Melvin.

 

[Brewers888]

I hope for Texas fans sake that they get a good return for Lynn.

They got 2 players to be named later.

wasn't that for Mike Minor?

another lefty eh...

don't mind the trade, the post by Stark is intriguing for sure.. if he can get his command in line to what it was 2017 he could be nasty again..We have a shit ton of SP now lol.


Pearson
Ryu
Walker
Ray
Anderson
Roark
Shoemaker
Thornton (by default of injuries)

Borucki will slot in there, he wants to be a SP but for this year he's "accepted" a role as relief

 

[gsro]

wasn't that for Mike Minor?

[gsro]

According to Twitter the 2 players for Mike Minor are going to be Marcus Smith and Dustin Harris

 

[jedi ninja]

wasn't that for Mike Minor?

Yes, Minor.

Apparently it's Ray + Cash for Travis Bergen

 

[BringInTheLefty]

Jon Daniels is an asshole, trading away Minor for nothing

 

[Ryno14]

Apparently it's Ray + Cash for Travis Bergen

Bergen a good prospect?

 

[gsro]

Bergen a good prospect?

I mean biggest thing is control, but he's a lefty reliever. Believe he was a Rule 5 draft pick off San Fran

 

[gsro]

Big Ken reporting that the Jays got Villar

 

[gsro]

Caleb Smith, Humberto Mejia + player yet to be nameds for Starling Marte

 

[Ryno14]

Going to be extremely disappointed if Cubs don’t come up with a reliever this hour

You got Chafin from Arizona.

hopefully he turns it around, dude has been awful when I needed him trhe most this year h aha

 

[Ryno14]

Only thrown 6 innings this year and still a couple weeks away from returning so imagine the return is minimal. Hopefully Cubs do something else

Apparently osich is on the list. And I’m quite familiar with those stupid 6 innings he pitched

 

[Brewers888]

Brewers traded Phelps to the Phillies. I'm guessing they got nothing back and just wanted to save on his 4.5 million option for next season. Attanasio has become a cheap prick like his predecessor Selig.

 

[Brewers888]

Brewers are becoming the Rays financially without the scouts and minor league system to get away with it.

 

[Ryno14]

Pillar to the Rockies

 

[BringInTheLefty]

IF Lynn gets traded will only be to the Dodgers

 

[Brewers888]

Daniels and Stearns are both headed on the same career path. Both looked brilliant early on only to be exposed as frauds years later.

 

[cubsker]

Cubs got Osich

 

[Ryno14]

Cubs got Osich

Hard to get excited about that one. I wanted Barnes

 

[cubsker]

Solid addition tho, had to get better from the left side. I still think we're short, but we did get better the last two days. Maybe Javy and Willie will remember how to hit.

 

[BringInTheLefty]

Lynn still a Ranger so is Gallo

 

[cubsker]

Cubs got Maybin.

Reds got archie Bradley

 

[cubsker]

Reds got Brian Goodwin too

 

[gsro]

someone traded FOR Kevin PIllar?

 

[Ryno14]

Wow. Archie is a huge pickup for Reds

 

[cubsker]

Reds also got Robinson chirinos

 

[Ryno14]

Mets

 

[Ryno14]

Mets also have a Todd Father reunion

 

[Brewers888]

David Stearns is a fucking jerkoff.

 

[Brewers888]

Lynn still a Ranger so is Gallo

I'm shocked you didn't move Lynn.

 

[Ryno14]

I'm shocked you didn't move Lynn.

Will never be a better sell high opportunity - big mistake, in my non-GM opinion
