Rodriguez was announced about 15 min after deadline last year so I’m holding out a little hope

Whit Merrifield has been traded to the Toronto Blue Jays, sources tell ESPN.


Interesting considering he was not allowed to play in Canada a few weeks ago.

Same, because we took a huge L today if not.

Literally all of our direct competitors got better.

I thought they would get Merrifield or Hernandez as a utility guy. Rosario and Detroit guy are probably gonna equal whatever guy we could have gotten. Ozuna might be hitting for his job this month with bill heating up.

Idk, no sexy names but I'll give Alex the benefit of the doubt.

Not gonna be any buzzer beaters from the Chicago Cubs, sources said. Willson Contreras and Ian Happ will remain with the Cubs, as @Ken_Rosenthal said.

Also staying: Carlos Rodon, Joc Pederson, Martin Perez, Matt Moore.

Our salary ceiling is higher than I thought, but I still think it’s lower than some around here imply it is. The price for Drury was very reasonable, as was the price for Thor.

For Tucker Davidson and Jesse Chavez. Kind of surprised Chavez got traded honestly. He's been great.

Also, Iglesias is not a right handed power bat. Still disappointed

for Tucker and Chavez.

Kinda hate losing Jesse, but Iglesias can be solid, although he's been very Will Smith-like this year.

Maybe you could get Bogaerts or Dansby to take a Correa type deal for 3 years

I'd be good w/this.

There was no room for a utility man. Their only needs going into the day were another BP arm and one more bat if they were willing to decrease Ozuna’s ABs.

I would have liked another competent LH bat of some kind but they filled everything else they needed.

Bullpen performance has a lot of variance. I haven’t watched him much or anything, but if he doesn’t have health issues this year I think he bounces back
