Padres gonna move Solarte
Rockies gonna move someone
I think the Mariners make a move... Felix, Camp, and Nelson need some help. Maybe they grab a starter such as Archer

They need health but they have the pieces to make another playoff run.

Ventura, Kennedy, and Duffy those three are decent and Ventura still has potential. Kennedy had a decent season as did Duffy last year. No idea how they fill out the rotation though.

If they decide to give Young starts then sure tank away. The Royals won't spend and that will be their undoing.

Before I start fapping, and I do want to fap, I'm reminded of the 2015 Nationals "Super Staff" that was a gigantic fricking bust.

Still need a fricking bat Rizzo!!! But this will help when Strasburg gets injured in August.

I think Lopez goes in the deal to Chicago. The only really potentially elite prospect remaining is Soto.

A bunch of pitchers. Lopez, Fedde, Voth. No bats of any sort, unless you're an LSU homer that loves Andrew Stevenson.

ETA: And yeah the 18 year old kid Soto that Unlucky mentioned. Couple of other DR signees this year.

Rizzo needs to drag his nuts on the Sox and get Adam Eaton added to this thing.

Well CWS started the negotiation by asking for Turner . Obviously that wasn't happening.

I think Robles, Giolito, maybe Severino and Fedde gets you Sale. That might be too much. Maybe just Robles, Giolito, plus one of Fedde/Stevenson/Severino.

For him + Eaton? An emptying of the farm to a sub-Angels level . Then toss in Danny Espinosa and FP Santangelo.

I had my concerns about Sale and the price it would take to get him. This year his strikeouts were down and his FB velocity was down from 95 to around 92. Apparently by design from the White Sox to have him pitch to more contact. Why would they do that? Concern over injury immediately comes to mind.

That's just speculation on my part but I'd be curious if there's something behind that strategy change.
