#Rays and #Dodgers have had recent trade talks that could link up with #Reds, sources say. @jaysonst first reported 3-team scenario. @MLB

Maybe a team would take him in lieu of a mid-tier prospect.
LA seems like they want to get rid of him.

Phils and Rangers apparently getting serious about VV.

I just don't understand why Philly would deal him.

It's the Phillies...

Depending on the return may be well worth.

Maybe, we'll see what the return is if it happens.

The Rangers have so many trade pieces it's hard to imagine a bad deal for the Phils.

1)Injury prone
2)A chance to be overpaid

Starting look like VV will be dealt to Texas, Ranger brass had their top three or four scouts there to watch him last night? And Philly all schooled up on Texas farm after extensive study last summer for the Hamels deal.

Hellickson and Gomez to SF? Balt?

Report this morning says Phillies unlikely to trade Velasquez after extensive talks yesterday. May be posturing with time left til Monday but who knows

Nats get melancon. For a major league reliever plus prospects.

I'm surprised more teams aren't sellers at these prices. Jesus.

Allegedly Rivero plus a prospect.

That is a steal if you compare it with what the Cubs paid for Chapman

True. Maybe that's why they made the move (Too much to pass up). They are only 3 games out of the wild card.

Pirates only 3 back in wildcard..Dodgers and Cards both have issues.
Wonder why they choose to sell?

Riverio has 5 years of control. Mm is a free agent. Pitt supposedly looking for a starter now.

Rivero is a bad arse with a 98 MPH heater and a wipeout slider. Numbers are bad this year because Dusty overused him to a ridiculous extent.

But Nats had to get a closer. Had to. And got one with Rivero + a lottery ticket. I like the deal.

Why isn't there a list of trades made in the OP instead of just updating the title?
