  1. Then there is the true life story where the star pitcher that is traded for nothing leads his team to a championship, or the nothing payer becomes an All Star closer or starter. The story does not occur very often, but enough to give teams and fans hope
  2. The nothing to get comment pretty much describes any of the deadline trades so far
  3. The head f an operation does have to project confidence in their decision making. There using of smartest guy in the room as a cutting comment is nothing but an emotional argument. The judging of what baseball players can be is mostly a crapshoot. The misses on the multitude of prospect analysis sites is large. The finding of diamonds in the trades is a rare occurance.
  4. Alas Mathews continues to have too many games of ‘He pitched great except for “
  5. Trading for Minter does noy show that they will spend crazy money on a player having a season that is below their pay grade.
  6. Yup, spending over 200 million guarantees a winner., just look at Toronto and the Mets this year. If the Giants had spent 17 million more the still would be the second worst team in baseballl
  7. I dunno, The mlb pipeline has Bruin listed as the Met’s 22 best prospect. The trade is surely a win for the Mets.
  8. League average ERA which is about the best he has ever had as a starter, yet there has been a lot of hype like he is one of the best pitchers out there. If the GM can get some team t drastically overpay, why not trade? The Angels still won’t be any good next year so there really isn’t any point in keeping him
  9. The point was they got one decent prospect for Helsley. I didn’t say anything about Weaver because the Twins don’t take on 11 million dollar relievers, they trade them
  10. Realistically Prieller hasn’t gone for prospects so some sort of deal with Prielipp, Morris, Keaschall, Bradley being involved. Being that they both make 4 million, they might have to take Larnach
  11. The number 8 prospect for the Mets became the 18th best for the Cardinals. The other 2 were not ranked in the top 30 the Rockies trading Goodman was the GM fishing for compliments about his player. There is n fire there unless it is a blow out 2 top 50 prospects plus kind of trade
  12. Looking back over the last 10 years, in the deadline rental trades the Yankees haven’t given up much more than a replacement level payer. Even in the non rental players it is rare for them to give up much.
  13. Only has to play as well as the 2nd best team in the league, and not have any other team also get hot. Considering the amount of interleague play, they would have to be the 8th best team in baseball
  14. From an article last year that quoted the athletic writer Jhostynxon Garcia, also known as “The Password,” was part of the deal Boston put together, but the overall package, according to McCaffrey, "was not substantial enough to land Ryan."
