I like the idea of trading for Giles on a discount and betting that he comes back strong down the stretch—though the depth of the discount matters, given the risk.
"For all his tattooings he was on the whole a clean, comely looking cannibal."
I want to see Puig hitting balls out of Dodger Stadium off of mountains in the playoffs.
Just about 24 hours until the deadline, and the only thing thats happened today is freaking Phelps to the Cubs.
Rest of today, and Wednesday better be active.

Just remember what AA said in the booth during Royals games.
If you haven't already started working on a trade by Monday of this week, it's probably not gonna come together at the last second.

Braves, A’s and Yanks are interested in Roark.

Padres made what they consider to be a strong offer for Syndergaard involving major league players, but still can’t find common ground. Teams have been talking NS for like 8 months and they’re not there yet.
Get off my lawn!
The Padres are in the same boat as us when it comes to prospects. Other teams want our best 1-2 prospects where our 4-5 would be other teams best prospects and it’s making it hard to come together on a trade. Also the Mets are trying to get back why they traded for Diaz and he’s having a down year so nobody is wanting to overpay like they did.
Hunter Pence is not in the lineup for the Rangers tonight

Rosenthal- More evidence #Mets do not intend to take step back: Sources say team is asking for major-league or major-league ready pieces for Syndergaard, even from clubs with top farm systems.
