Blue Jays Discussion: The trade deadline approaches (Tue, Aug 2 at 6pm ET/3pm PT) and the market is taking shape

[Tony Romo]

interesting

Effross has been awesome, but he's a 28-year-old reliever who throws 91... not exactly a "young fireballer".

Well 68ks in 58 IP. I dont care if they throw 20 miles per hour.

Thank god

Angels will probably trade Ohtani in the off-season. They have one of the worst farm systems and their player development sucks. Ohtani is a free agent after 2023. They gotta re coup some cheaper, younger assets and start turning things around.

Things are starting to get wild!!!

Wow!! Shocked Milwaukee is moving him

I would guess Soto goes to LA or St.Louis now

 

[SDig14]

Seems maybe Hader hasn't been that good of late and Williams has been better? Still waiting and see what prospect(s) they get.

 

[red devil]

Full trade for Hader

 

[stats1]

It would be gross if the Dodgers swooped in and hot Soto. Jeez

 

[Vector]

Baseball is wild. All the trades are concentrated around the deadline and playoff teams move out key players.

And then the Rockies sign a 37 year old bounce-back closer to a long term contract.

Look if Toronto comes out with Fulmer and Skubal, I'd be pumped.

Looks like Montas and Yankees are close.

Yankees are f***ing loaded

Rockies are on another planet with their own rules. Nothing they do makes any sense

You know who's been better than Hader this year? Taylor Rogers.

I know Hader has the track record and an extra year, but that seems like an awful trade for San Diego. They do lots of weird stuff.

 

[stats1]

Mets want Contreras and Robertson. Fan 590 MLB insider expects Robertson to be a Met by tomorrow

It's possible the Padres were sick and tired of this?

 

[stats1]

Yankees apparently have top prospect Oswald Peraza in offer for Montas

 

[Suntouchable13]

We have the arms and the bats to go toe-to-toe with the Yanks. We just need to add a bullpen arm or 2.

Looking at the Yankees BTV page is hilarious. I thought the scroll bar was stuck and wouldn't scroll any higher. They only have 9 guys above 10 million, 4 guys with values above 20 million, just 1 above 30 million. For a reference the Jays have 17 above 10 million, 10 above 20 million, 6 above 30 million, and 5 guys(Manoah, Bo, Vladdy, Moreno, Kirk) above any Yankee asset.

Either BTV is horrible undervaluing Yankee assets(that would be a first), or the Yankees are going to have to spend a shit ton of money soon, or find a few diamonds in the rough or you would think this will catch up to them eventually.

Jays need Rodon more than Montas so I wouldn’t be upset if we missed out on him

 

[OVO16]

Jays going hard after Quintana

 

[Amadeus]

It's the season of finishing runner up, guys.

I'm kidding. I still like the management team.
