I'd love to know exactly who they wanted and how close both sides were.

Olney lists Sonny Gray, Yonder Alonso, J.D. Martinez, Justin Wilson and Pat Neshek as five players that definitively will be traded prior to the non-waiver trade deadline. All of those players are known to be available, with the Athletics and Phillies at differing stages of a lengthy rebuilding process and the Tigers aiming to pare down payroll by moving short-term veterans. But, Olney’s strong characterization of the likelihood is nonetheless notable, especially since both Gray and Wilson are controllable beyond the 2017 campaign. The Brewers, Cubs, Astros, Yankees, Braves and Indians are among the teams in the mix for Gray, though likely not all to the same extent. Alonso, meanwhile, has reportedly had talks with the A’s about an extension, though Billy Beane’s rebuilding comments yesterday certainly lend credence to the notion that a trade could be the likelier outcome.
The Braves, meanwhile, are “very much open to offers for Julio Teheran,” Olney reports, citing execs with other clubs that have spoken to Atlanta about the righty. Olney’s report meshes with recent indications from David O’Brien of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, as he writes that the Braves would like to move Teheran for a package of prospects but would first prefer to acquire a suitable rotation replacement for him. Teheran has struggled mightily at Atlanta’s new SunTrust Park this season (7.58 ERA, 13 HR in 46 1/3 home innings; 2.53 ERA, seven HR in 57 road innings), so perhaps the Atlanta front office thinks now more than ever that he’s best suited for a change of scenery.
Approximately a dozen teams have expressed interest in Braves left-hander Jaime Garcia, but the club isn’t ready to sell, reports Mark Feinsand of MLB.com (on Twitter). Thanks in part to Garcia, who fired seven one-run innings in a win over the Diamondbacks on Sunday, the Braves (45-45) are at the .500 mark for the first time since April 17. Overall this season, the 31-year-old Garcia has logged a 4.33 ERA (4.25 FIP), 6.88 K/9, 3.4 BB/9 and a 54.7 percent ground-ball rate through 106 innings. As an impending free agent, Garcia and his $12MM salary may well end up on the move in the coming weeks if the Braves don’t make up more ground in the National League playoff race. The team has a realistic chance to contend, though, as it’s a manageable 5.5 games out of a wild-card spot.

The braves dumping Teheran and adding another guy seems pretty counterproductive
Posted on 7/17/17 at 11:32 am to GynoSandberg
Especially as young as he is... Unless they believe he won't get back to what he was, which seems odd.

Home:51 IP, 7.58 ERA, 6.90 FIP, .293 BAA, 6.22 K/9, 2.53 HR/9
Away:57 IP, 2.53 ERA, 4.34 FIP, .221 BAA, 6.70 K/9, 1.11 HR/9
The new park is killing Teheran because he is an extreme fly ball pitcher. You can see that his road stats are in line with what he has been in the past.
He just needs a new home that isnt Sun Trust.

Trade Garcia now before he gets hurt again.

Two weeks ago, it was reported that while the Tigers were willing to discuss Justin Verlander in trades, they sought a significant prospect return and weren’t inclined to include any financial compensation to offset his sizable contract. Now, MLB.com’s Jon Morosi tweets that the Tigers have softened that stance and are willing to include “some” cash in a theoretical trade to help facilitate a deal

Athletics righty Sonny Gray is an obvious target for contenders, and he’s among the players touched upon in a report from Bob Nightengale of USA Today (which also delves into some analysis and predictions). The Brewers “may be the most aggressive” suitor for the Oakland starter, per Nightengale, with the Royals even entering the picture to some extent. He guesses, though, that the Astros are most likely to land Gray. That’s not to say that it’s Houston’s first choice; Nightengale says that the team spoke with the Tigers on Michael Fulmer but “came up empty.”

Phillies aren’t in contention — far from it — but are still showing interest in Marlins second baseman Dee Gordon, Nightengale adds.

Mimai sent one of their top personnel guys to watch Dakota Hudson pitch. Cardinals are in for one of Yelich/Ozuna(hopefully Ozuna).
Still sounds like California teams are favorites for Stanton.

Was talking to a guy i went to HS with, who works in Scouting department for Cardinals.
He said Marlins could literally deal 6-7 of their starting 8. The team is hemorrhaging $$$ and prospective owners want the books Balanced.
500Mil in red and growing daily.

Does he understand how much baseball players make. Specifically most everyday players for the Marlins.

on the other hand the prospective ownership groups may want to make their own trades with these guys and that could be a hangup, esp a player like Stanton
