Will the Twins trade for Greinke?
Most likely
Going to the Angels per Ken Rosenthal on Twitter.
I'm going to have to go with "no." The Twins won't trade for Greinke.
Darn, I was sure that Ryan would finally go for it and trade prospects to close that one hole we had in the lineup..../s
Damn, now we need to focus on convincing Ryan to trade Willingham for Bundy straight up.
Maybe the Rangers will want to counter with Frankie
The Rangers will want to do something bigger, like Josh Johnson or Garza (not likely) or even Dempster (though I'd bet he says no).
I think as long as we get something of value for Ramos we can consider this a good deadline.
1) The Marlins themselves have said that it would take a large load of prospects to get them to move Johnson
2) According to MLBTR, Garza has been told by the Cubs that he isn't going anywhere
3) If Dempster is going anywhere, I have to believe that it will be to the Dodgers
That more or less leaves the Rangers to either go after James Shields, who I have to imagine is also very pricey, or Liriano, who should be less pricey than Shields, and that's if they even want a new SP.
Traded to the Angels
