Nah he's already on the 40 man. Definitely seems like a trade is brewing.

It was reported the Pads were interested in Murphy a couple weeks ago. And Murphy objectively has more value than Miller. Is it a guarantee we could have gotten him? No. But the fact is that AA wasn't even interested in trading Muphy right now. And in turns out the Pads were at least willing to...

I mean I would certainly rank Duran and Helsley both over Miller as far a closers go. Not exactly apples to apples in value, since their level of team control is different, but damn, neither closer pulled anything near what the Pads gave up. So you lose out on those 2 and you decided to pivot to...

I don't know what the "and more" consisted of, but Steven Kwan is also objectively way more valuable than Mason Miller.

Sure we don't know how they valued him. But objectively, Murphy is way more valuable than a non-elite closer. And Sears barely has value.

I mean he's already having success in A+ ball. He wouldn't start out of the gate, but he could easily be a guy that gets called up in June if he is legit. And by all accounts, this kid seems like the real deal.

That means we could have EASILY gotten Leo de Vries, plus more by trading Murphy and whatever players on expiring contracts they wanted to the Pads and picking up all the salaries for 2025. AA, respectfully, go eat a dick.

It does. The Royals ended up with pick 25 this year for Witt finishing top 3 while being on the pre-season top 100 list. So we have a strong chance for a top 3 pick currently. Then the pick for Drake. And then our 2nd round pick (which should fall in the 40-50 range).

LMAO, what are the Pads doing? You could have gotten Jhaon Duran and another decent pitcher (maybe even Bailey Ober) for that package. Instead you send a top 20 overall prosect for a league average closer and a 5th starter.

If Drake wins the ROY and we get a top 3 pick..... man what a boost to the farm that would be. 3 picks in the top 50.

Why? He quite clearly isn't a better option than Baldwin or Murphy at this point and he's a FA in 2 months. I feel pretty certain he wouldn't want to ride the pine for most of the next 2 months.

I suppose it's nice to say that at least we aren't the Pirates. They are gonna piss away Paul Skene's prime. Dude would have 30 career wins already if he played on the Dodgers

They won't be for long if Ohtani goes down.

Jays should have interest in Iggy right? Not many closers left on the market.

The Orioles were able to secure the Cubs top International Signee from this past signing period for Andrew Kittredge. What the eff is AA doing here? Bummer, Pierce Johnson, and Iggy all need to be out the door. I would even listen on Dylan Lee if someone really valued him highly. RP arms are...

It will be majorly disappointing and an absolute failure from AA if Iggy and other relievers are still on the roster at 6 pm today. And the only way Ozuna should be on the roster is if he uses his veto power.

I mean the Rangers seem like the perfect fit for us in a trade. Both Ozuna and any one of our relievers make a lot of sense for them. We could eat money and/or take on Joc Pederson.

Crazy idea. Braves trade Ozzie and Iggy to the Mets for Acuna's brother.

Quick peak at the numbers and he seems like Luke Williams 2.0. Montero wasn't anything of value though.
