Anyways, the AL Central still remains the division where one team's name makes sense and the other four are trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, I don’t give a single shit about the city of Cleveland or any of its sports teams, but I’d have bought a Spiders hat right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Chatywin et al. Posted July 24, 2021 Share Posted July 24, 2021 Reminds me of being a kid asking my grandfather to buy me a Devil Ray's hat. I had no idea who they were, but it was cool. I'm sure the Spiders would have gotten similar support. Guardians is just so meh. 39 minutes ago, Jaxom 1974 said: Spiders are icky. Marketing says so. Sox are icky too, and a far dumber name.

Myshkin Posted July 29, 2021 Share Posted July 29, 2021 Some stuff: Yanks getting Anthony Rizzo for prospects Kevin Alcantara and Alexander Vizcaino Dodgers getting Danny Duffy for a PTBNL (which one I would guess depends on when or if Duffy actually returns from the IL) Padres looking like they’re gonna land Scherzer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingintheNorth4 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I'm satisfied. The White Sox upgraded their bullpen and second base without trading away anyone of real significance. Maybe they can get one more reliever before the trade deadline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Latest now is that the Dodgers are making “significant progress” on a deal that would land both Scherzer and Trea Turner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be a coup, especially since there's little chance the piece of shit ever pitches for the Dodgers again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMC Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Well the Yanks certainly shored up their lack of lefties and glaring holes. Not thrilled how many prospects it cost, but happy they haven't given up any of their top guys...yet. Wonder if they'll throw Voit into a package now for pitching.

Myshkin Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Deal’s not officially done, but it looks like the return for the Nats will be Ruiz, Gray, Donovan Casey, and Gerardo Carrillo. Casey and Carrillo are mid level guys, but Ruiz and Gray are (according to most) our top 2 prospects. Ruiz is expendable since we have a lot of depth at C in both the majors and minors, but giving up Gray hurts a bit. Still though, I love this deal.
