Overall, 'buying' at the deadline is bad business. Or at least young-for-old trades generally are.
Trading for average starters that are wishcasted/hyped as to something more is bad business (Shane Baz, MacKenzie Gore et al). This year's prime candidate: Reid Detmers.

Think the brewers could line up for Skubal and make for a pretty entertaining NLCS with the Dodgers

Think the Dodgers do a prospect exchange if not now then in the winter where we try to move our depth of outfielders for other positional players

I've always found it a little odd how rare these are. I can never recall a prospect for prospect trade.

You kinda have to line up with organizations that have a lot of depth in one are and next to none in another and its kinda hard to anticipate that given how fickle prospects are but you'd think they would happen more often then they ultimately do

Only dumb teams overpay at the deadline. Now, notice I said overpay and not equal pay.

Teams could theoretically be more inclined to go all in this year but still hard to get an idea on if any major pieces are truly on the move when there is still so much up in the air from a standings perspective

If some one emptied their farm system, I'd trade Walker(stl) to them, and then trade burley(stl), along with others.

build around weatherholt


stl are in for a 2-3+ year rebuild, because MLB is bottomed out, they look better than they are. they need to replenish their system, and bring in top prospects ready to bloom.

The offers are going to be rich enough where Detroit is going to end up dealing him regardless of how they play the next couple weeks

Yea i think im coming around to that as well. Teams like the Phillies and Red Sox and Brewers are the exact kind of teams the Tigers would want to get involved

I don't know much about the Phillies farm system, but I think they end up with Skubal. They would move heaven and earth to get him.

I think a package around Painter with a few other top prospects could get it done for Philly. I can see Detroit wanting a promising young major league SP to plug in for Skubal as part of any deal since they are still in contention for a playoff spot. Sproat for Milwaukee, Sheehan for LA, etc

While sources familiar with the Padres’ thinking told The Athletic's Dennis Lin (subscription required) that Mason Miller seems likely to remain with the club through the Trade Deadline, some rival teams aren’t so sure.

ESPN’s Buster Olney reported Friday in an appearance on “Get Up” that he heard from multiple executives with other teams who told him they believe Miller is going to be traded.

Based on his intel, MLB Network insider Jon Heyman considers the Pirates, Mariners and Yankees to be the top three suitors for Miller. Heyman reported the news Friday in his latest appearance for Bleacher Report
quote:

The Brewers are also a team to watch on the Miller front, as well as the other top prize in this year’s trade market, Tarik Skubal.

According to MLB.com’s Adam McCalvy, sources said that Brewers officials are prepared to adopt a more aggressive approach at the Trade Deadline compared to recent years. They’ve touched base with San Diego about Miller and Detroit about Skubal.
quote:

Tampa Bay has been consistently linked to Tarik Skubal this summer, and MLB Network insider Joel Sherman (New York Post subscription required) went as far as predicting Saturday that the two-time AL Cy Young Award winner will end up with the Rays if he's dealt.
quote:

the Red Sox have been linked to Angels dynamic shortstop Zach Neto, but he’s not the only shortstop they are reportedly keeping tabs on ahead of the Aug. 3 Deadline. According to USA Today’s Bob Nightengale, Boston also has its eyes on Nationals All-Star CJ Abrams. He is under club control through 2028 while Neto is controllable through ‘29. Although the Nationals are in the thick of the NL Wild Card hunt, they are reportedly willing to listen on Abrams.

Here we go. Big leaguer for big leaguer. Both with a lot of control. Mead is a pretty bad defender but his Savant offensive page is pretty good. Red Sox get the RH 3rd baseman they’ve wanted. Can move Durbin to second and shop Mayer for more pitching
