Unfortunately deGrom has been LIGHTS OUT the last month or so. No chance we get him without giving up Tucker


I prefer whichever move let's us keep Tucker

Gray and Doolittle would be awesome. And Beane seems like the type that could accept a Tuckerless and Whitleyless package

I think it's also time to start rediscussing Toronto as a seller (although not sure we'd be good trade partners with them), Blue Jays, ChiSox, Detroit, and Oakland are the only AL teams more than 3 games out of the wild card

As for the NL, it's about the complete opposite. Cubs are in 3rd in wild card hunt and are 7 games back from the 2nd spot

I'd assume we would probably add the fastest baserunner on our 40 man not currently on the roster to that list

Hard to know who that would be since so many of our AAA guys could be used as additional pieces in a trade

I think having a third catcher would be a must so you can freely PH Gattis. I dunno on the 14th honestly. Maybe we would go to 12 pitchers, who knows.

Fisher is the obvious 14th guy if he doesn't get dealt

Good point. Working on the assumption that Teo stays if Fisher goes, probably him?

Wasn't sure if him or Kemp?

Honestly, wouldn't be opposed to adding someone from AA (if there were better options) to the 40 man just to use them for pinch running in playoffs

Laureano leads Corpus with 17 steals this year


Kemp leads Fresno with 14
Fisher with 13
Teo with 11

(A little misleading since Fish spent some time with the big league club and Teo had that injury)


ETA: Then we apparently got Ken Giles' long lost brother in Buies Creek

Wonder what a Cole/McCutchen package would cost. Cutch is single handedly killing the Phils today and is up to ~.290. He really seems to have resolved his 2016 issues. He still has a year left on his deal and would cost about the same as what we're paying Reddick.

As of right now?

Okay, close your eyes and picture your favorite Astros prospect. He gone!

Now do that like 4 more times.

Let me put it another way. How much different would the package be from what it would take to get Verlander and JD?

Different dynamic because of Verlander's salary. How much of it is Detroit going to pay? No way to know how two sides will deal with that.

Man that deal is tempting.

Any deal that doesn't include Whitley and tucker though is the one I want

If the original reports of what Oakland wants for Gray are close to accurate, that's what we should be pursuing
