2024 Trade Deadline

[tzill]

FZ signed him in the first place. I have a hard time patting a guy on the back for kinda cleaning up his own mess.

Not me; full credit for admitting it isn't working out. It wasn't a bad signing at the time. It just turned out that Soler hit like a little bitch at Oracle. So, he dumps the salary. Good move and we pick up a mid tier prospect.

With the Giants history of trading non-OFers who end up playing OF for their new team, I am placing good money on Soler winning a GG next season.

The 40 is currently at 37 and the 26 is currently at 24.

I hope FZ has extra undies in his desk at the office, because that kind of flexibility has to be “exciting” for him.

Well, we know Luci and Bird are coming to the 26. There will be many dudes DFA'd today and tomorrow so FZ is likely salivating.

I know its a long shot, but still hoping for Snell to be traded in the next couple hours.

Yes.

”Saliva” is the bodily fluid he is producing.

Sabes would pull a blockbuster out of his ass that no one saw coming. FZ?

Birdy was optioned on the 22nd. I don’t think he is eligible to be recalled yet (I don’t know if trades count as one of the exceptions)

good point

LOL

according to MLB Trade Value (a site that assigns a dollar figure to ever player to help determine trades), the Giants fleeced the Braves.

Soler (-15M)
Jackson (-4.3M)

Matzek (-0.7M)
Ceballos (0.9M)

Of course nothing is absolute, but by these guys’ assessment, this was straight up sexual assault.

Cobb to Guardians
Baumann to Angels

Texas Interest in Conforto who never really had much of a hot streak here and word is he would be a platoon.

@tzill

Tentative on Cobb return on CBS trade tracker LHP Jacob Bresnahan, player to be named later.

 

[calsnowskier]

Baumann was just a cash deal. Not certain which direction the cash flowed. I assume the Giants are eating some of his contract.

Cleveland is sending minor league lefty Jacob Bresnahan and a player to be named later to San Francisco in the swap

I know nothing about this kid…

But he looks like a decent lotto ticket.

I kinda hoped Cobb would get a start for us this year, just out of sentiment. But if we can swap that for a legit lotto ticket, I am AOK with that.
