I'll take Tepera and Bryant. I'm not too greedy.

I’m on the Marte, Kennedy, Hudson/Rodriguez/Rogers train

Just generally improving the bullpen is obviously the biggest desire but getting a decent lefty would be nice


Kennedy makes too much sense with how cheap he is so guessing Click does something else

Also anymore rumors about that Taylor Jones/Cubs trade that was making the rounds last night?

Fell asleep last night, just saw the lowlight of Toros HR bouncing out of Tuckers glove.

He needs the killer instinct to go up and grab/attack that ball. In the playoffs those are series changing plays…oof. Glad we still got the W

Looks like a made up Twitter rumor but we're not giving up hope!

Damn I still can't get over wtf Seattle thought about that trade. Toro is a fine player but giving the team who is leading your division exactly what they need when you are competing for it is wild.


Now granted they seemed to fix Laforce in one outing so maybe we got fleeced

That's what I'd call fool's gold.

They must intend to package Toro.

If they ship him off today before the game he'll have hit a HR in his only Mariners AB.

I saw Goldstein make the argument that the Mariners gladly did if for 3 more years of control vs 20-30 innings of graveman. Makes a little more sense like that

Their front office rates Toro as an average or better MLB starter. The trade makes sense from a value standpoint. It also makes sense because they know the M's have overachieved this season and making the playoffs isn't a big deal in their big picture.

However...

Teams talking to the #Mariners say they're now much more in buy than sell mode, trying to add starters, relievers and an impact bat.

Saying no on moving Mitch Haniger. And no interest in flipping Abraham Toro, who just arrived yesterday

Fascinating team to watch in next 2 days.


Dipoto must LOVE Toro.

Look, I know the trade deadline is just a couple days away. I understand the Astros still have some pretty big holes to patch. I believe all of this trade talk in the DAT is valuable.

But, there is entirely not enough of,
