Like I said, they may at the deadline but they will wait to see if Kenley or Kelly get going
they are 100% going to make a move. Getting maeda and urias in the pen for the playoffs, and possibly hill, will make it look different but everyone sans kenley has been a disaster

Yeah it’s gonna make things real interesting. You’d think moves will start happening really soon but front offices may not be used to that. Especially teams that are on the fence of being sellers or not

The nats aren't selling unless they fall off the face of the earth these next few weeks. Even then, I doubt it considering how jumbled the NL is

It’s literally LA and then everyone else. Braves fans may not like that, but they are way closer to the pack level than they are to the Dodgers level.

With only 1 deadline, teams will be forced to make decisions on season earlier. before you could wait till last month of season.

Now 1 deadline forces you to make earlier decisions. More active deadlines???

If the Jays are sellers do they shop Stromann?

Yea. The entire central plus the Braves, phillies, and maybe nats plus the three limbo west teams are in spots to make a run at the playoffs

It's pretty open

Rendon is a strange bird...does not really like the spot light. So being in DC is pretty easy on a player.

But after last off season with Harper and Boras it will be interesting to see if they can get anything done.

The list of possible sellers depending on next 2-3 weeks is pretty hard

Outside of the teams you listed everyone is within 5 games of wild card but who knows what that’ll look like at the deadline


I’d guess Mets will become sellers. Arizona has some interesting names if they were to sell. White Sox and Abreu is another one

The DAT has been drooling over the possibility that Thor becomes available.

I think so

Read last week Houston had looked just as much into dealing for him in 2017 as they did Verlander

Toronto obviously has some solid young talent but they def need more and I don’t see them competing while Stroman is still around so why hold onto him?

I honestly think the fact that the AL is more jumbled at the top is going to help them come playoff time. The Yankees and yall and Sox and Minnesota are probably going to be aggressive out of necessity whereas the Dodgers are probably just going to be looking for pieces to round out the edges of the bullpen

yeah Matthew Boyd screams younger J.A. Happ to me plus 17 HRs given up so far this season, nah, I'm set on the starting pitcher bombs

Tucker should have been gone last year, lets see if they can pull the trigger on someone worthwhile this year.
