For beltre? Too much?

similar to what teams paid for Cabrera, Moose and Escobar. I'm guessing the Rangers would pick up a big chunk of his remaining salary.

Gray has been excellent outside of the Yankees little league stadium

Apparently we're scouting Sonny Gray. I'd definitely take a flier on him it the cost was low enough.

Also, the Rangers apparently are pretty far along on a Beltre trade (speculation is us) and Beltre has been asked to make a decision on his 10/5 rights. Latest reports are that he hasn't been approached with a trade.

 

[Enscheff]

We would certainly have to make it worth it for them. They can cover his position (Lowrie can play 3rd), and they need help in some areas that we have depth. It could work for both teams.

The A’s aren’t trading Chapman.

I think he'd accept a trade to Atlanta.

Based on you psycho analyzing him from your couch?

 

[Dalyn]

If we are getting Beltre, I hope Kela is also involved.

Rangers Astros start in an hour. Beltre hitting 4th. Let's see if he actually plays tonight

 

[Dalyn]

The A’s aren’t trading Chapman.

In fairness, that has been said about perhaps more A's players right before they're traded than any other team.

 

[striker42]

Based on you psycho analyzing him from your couch?

No, based on several actual facts. First, if you read his comments you'd see that he said he'd be open to a trade to a winner if it made sense to him and the Rangers.

Second, he's 39 and won't have many more chances.

Third, Ron Washington is on our staff and Washington managed Beltre in Texas.

So, based on evidence I formed an opinion and stated it on a forum in which opinions about baseball are encouraged.

So piss off.

Would the Braves show interest in Twins thrower Kyle Gibson?? Gibson had back to back seasons with a 5.07 ERA prior to this year.

Gibson sports a 3.42 mark across 129 innings so far in 2018. He’s also struck out nearly a batter per inning and sports a healthy 46.2% ground ball rate, making him a fairly safe bet to continue his solid production moving forward.

Sources indicate the Marlins and Nationals remain in discussions in a trade for JT Realmuto. Execs from both teams together in Miami. Nats are now willing to part with Victor Robles for JT as @JonHeyman & @JoeFrisaro noted. (1/2)

This would be HUGE.

Whoa!

 

[UNCBlue012]

WOW.

a week ago, there was talk about them possibly selling, now they’re in on Realmuto?

They might as well be all in since they're probably going to lose Harper this offseason. The window is now.

I think nothing comes of it after what they said Realmuto thinks of the young arms coming up for the Marlins (after spending time in the minors in the last month for some reason, maybe it was catching a minor league game while on paternity leave) during our broadcast earlier this week. The Fish need a face of the franchise.

Something to remember about Beltre is that the deadline is no deadline for him. His salary is 18 million this year. No one is claiming him so he'd be able to be traded in August.

I think he's one guy it'd be better to wait until August to get. The price would definitely go down.
