Why the frick would the Pirates want another SP? Cole, Liriano, Taillon, Glasnow, and Brault are all they need.

Astros trade Scott Feldman to the Blue Jays. (Brian McTaggart)

Dodgers acquire Jesse Chavez from the Blue Jays (Rosenthal)

Honeywell is a top 50 prospect and in AA right now pitching really well. I think they have a few others like Guerreri or Jacob Faria who aren't huge prospects but are at the higher levels of their system. Andriese is their long guy (8 starts) and is having a really good year.

I doubt they're looking to deal all of them, just dangling all three to see what they could get. Moore makes the most sense, he has the least control and is having a really nice bounce back year. With how weak the market is they could get a solid return for Moore

I don't think I would give up Profar and Gallo for likely just one year of Lucroy if he has his way



those are 2 "A" prospects. In the deal with CLE they were sending a fringe "A" prospect and then 2 "B" prospects with upside. Gallo could be a center piece with 2 other pieces like Ronald Guzman or Michael Matuella, if we are going off of what Cleveland was going to send in a deal to MIL

I don't know much about their system, but they have pitchers that are close to MLB ready?


Probably not likely. Again Tampa Bay's problem is they're another Oakland but with slightly better uniforms.

Probably some lotto ticket. Frees up space for Musgrove or James Hoyt

I heard on the Astros broadcast this weekend (yeah, I listen to the Astros games now because of Bregman) that Feldman has the best K/BB ratio for relievers in MLB...

He has value as a reliever but not much as a starter. I would have preferred to trade Neshek or Fiers to open up a spot but whatever

I'd give anything to get Lucroy out of Milwaukee for the rest of the year. While they're at it, the Rangers can take Kirk Nieuwenhuis too.
