Report from @JohnKeatingFSD just now on @FOXSportsDet: #Tigers inquired to #Yankees about Miller. Ask was Fulmer, Matt Boyd, Joe Jimenez.
Al Avila probably laughed that one off for a while.

Apparently losing 2 straight to Tampa is what gave Cashman the green light to sell

I've been on the sell bandwagon a few weeks, time for Beltran, Pineda, McCann, and even Eovaldi to go and start fresh. Would like to see more pitchers returning in these trades though.

The Nats need another bat, I am not sure why we have not reached out more about Beltran.

Gardner should go....

Just not sure he will ever figure it out, second half of last year he looked great but he hasn't this year.

true, I just think he has some potential to be good in new york.

gardner needs to go.

i honestly didn't think mccann would draw much interest, but it seems like he is. trade pineda for sure, and nova if anyone truly wants him.

think they can move ellsbury? if the yankees do this right, they can have 10 or 11 of the top 100 prospects in baseball by tomorrow night.

Since the Yankees will eat most of the salary maybe they can pick up a top 30 prospect from a team. If nothing else maybe add another potential bullpen arm.

Yup Nova can go as well... Pineda is in the same boat as Eovaldi to me, young with potential. They've both showed flashes but neither has consistently put it together.

Not unless they want to really eat that contract. Doubt he would return much either.



The Yankees with their recent pick-ups have one of the best farm systems now. They have what 7-9 players on the midseason top 100 list now?

WTF are the Reds FO doing? They refuse to trade players at their fricking peak value and then do it the next year for half as much. These fricking assclowns are murdering this rebuild.frick.

they did a decent job at not trading bruce when his value was at its lowest. they will get a better return this year than they would have gotten in the previous two seasons
