In Phoenix's defense, hanging onto Booker in no way deters their short term plans of being exceptionally terrible at basketball in hopes of landing some good picks.
... For the Rockets and Wizards...
... And Jazz in 2031...
Washington holds the Suns swaps in 26, 28 and 30, Houston gets their 1st in 27 and 29, and Utah gets their 2031. None of these picks have protections on them for the Suns.
However, Washington might be pretty terrible on their own, so the swaps may not hurt that much, but it negates the Suns from winning the lottery. The best case scenario for them would be both those picks getting 1-2 in the lottery and they would automatically get the 2nd pick. Highly unlikely though.
Extending Booker makes sense, because he's going to have to be traded at some point in the near future. The more guaranteed years he has, the more they can ask for him. Send him to some starved for talent franchise like Charlotte or NOLA for a big haul and start over in 2027.

Some would argue that scoring is an important part of winning games...

334 foot home run. The Crawford boxes giveth, and the Crawford boxes taketh away.

Alright, time to make something happen...

Noel as a pinch runner is an interesting choice in a close game.

He hit the fowl pole!

Alvarez and McCormick are doing leg exercises on the field, Dubin is throwing and Dezeno, Rodgers and Melton are playing catch.
That means everyone is on track to be healthy in October!

Great contract(only $69M total left for 3 years), can play 2B or you can move Paredes to 2B, difference making offensive force that is a switch hitter. You mortgage the farm for this type of player.
Pena, Ramirez, Alvarez, Paredes, Altuve, Smith, Walker, Diaz, Meyers will fuck up some teams.
Jram just recently moved up to 2nd all time on the Cleveland home run list, so I don't think they will let him leave until he passes Thome in about 1.5 seasons. Kwan is a bit less memorable, since he doesn't have a long of tenure and WS appearance, but either of them will take a ton of assets to acquire due to the length of control. Lindor got them a decent 4 player haul as a 1 season rental with a huge payday due up the next year, I think both Kwan and Jram would be worth a lot more.
That said, if Short can keep up his hot streak, then he could be a big piece of that future trade. The Guardians desperately need a SS that doesn't suck in the field. They also need starting pitchers, so if they are going for the long game, maybe someone like Javier could be an interesting option while he rehabs.

Step aside Altuve, there is a new short king in town...

My group chat with my LA friends has been silent since about the 5th inning on Friday. Oh well, I'll keep sending them memes.

Shut out 5x and 14 run scored in the streak. This is the worst Tribe/Guards team I’ve seen in at least a decade. Wasting a Hall of Very Good Guy in Jose Ramirez.
Yeah, they are a .500 team at best this year. Bieber is supposed to come back later in the year, but he's not gonna save this team. Don't know if they will be interested in blowing it up, since Kwan and Jram are probably the only guys they could sell for a king's ransom. Clase has been rumored for trades this season, and it might just happen, but he really hasn't been that great since the end of last season. He gave up a couple games against Detroit in the playoffs, and hasn't been the same since. They have a few more relievers that are solid, but probably won't fetch too much to help reshape the team. Cleveland and Houston both churn out pitchers through their systems very well, and so the Guardians tend to flip 1 or 2 every deadline for prospects.
Kwan on the Astros would be incredible if they could make it happen. He's a lefty, solid right fielder, low bat speed but gets a ton of contact, and he has 2.5 years of arbitration left. It would take a ton of assets for Cleveland to move him though, but he would be an ideal fit for this team.

Doug Fister was traded for Charlie Furbush. They could be your setup men in the pen.
Depending on your pronunciation, you could add add Albert Poo-holes or Kosuke Fukudome.
Jack Glasscock would be a good one too.

My only issue with the Cam trade is that he cost a mid 1st to draft, and they got two 2nds for him. Selling at a loss in this transaction. But maybe he wasn't all that attractive around the league and that was the best they could do. I just figured a team like NOLA or Sac would be willing to pay more for him.

Ohtani threw 31 pitches to get through 2 innings, that guy threw 32 to get through 1. Let's hope they bring him out again against the bottom the lineup in the 4th

Y'all are going to forget who Cam Whitmore is once you see Durant play 5 games with these guys.
Seriously. Cam is just a guy right now. He has potential, but he's not gonna achieve anything here with so many people in front of him. He needs to go elsewhere to grow, and the team could use future picks for him.
