rumor ::: Ryan Tepera for Taylor Jones and Robel Garcia 

 

unpopular opinion,  im high on jones as prospect but not sure if he has a slot here

I guess the White Sox don't need him today after trading for him, check notes, yesterday.

He was traded to the White Sox yesterday. Are you saying they are flipping him after getting Kimbrel?

Rangers just gave away their only 2 decent pitchers. We better go 7-0 with a +50 run differential in our remaining matchups this season.

So you think we're gonna rest a bunch of guys in those series?  Yeah, that makes sense.

Are there any relievers left we could add that would move the needle? I mean ours blow so anything might move the needle.

to make a deep playoff run, you need ~5 good bullpen pieces. 

right now we have pressly, graveman, and javier.  find 2 more from the pool of garcia x2, stanek, taylor, and anyone coming off the il.  figure our rotation is greinke, lmj, framber, urquidy.  odorizzi doesn't even need to be on the postseason roster.

i would love to add a lefty but i think we're good where we stand now.

I was just about to ask if this means Meyers finally gets the call. OPS over 1.000 for Sugar Land this season.

They're not going to swap their first-half starting CF for a guy who could have been their starter all along for Phil Maton.

Has to be something else cooking.

I fuckin love Meyers' potential but he's too inexperienced to just throw out there for the second half of the season and playoff push. 

Buxton szn please. Get it done Click!

 

this isn't a playoff push, this is a world series run or bust 

the padres, yankees, a's, mariners, tampa are in a playoff push
