August, the Orioles, and the Trade Deadline all arrive: BAL @ TEX 8/1-3

[DTC]

They will pivot and trade Blake Snell now I would imagine

Ok now the trades can resume.

The Rangers overpay to get Gallo back and get a shit return for Matt Moore.

What about a bad trade for Burke and I hear the Astros are looking for CF help. Send Adolis for a meager return.

One thing for sure is now with the Hosmer issue, this trade will dominate the entire afternoon even more than it was already going to and you will hear very little about the rest of the teams and potential moves.

Maybe Hosmer and Blake Snell end up here with the Padres paying the majority of Hosmers contract just not this years salary- we have to cover that.
Frees up the Rangers to move Nate Lowe in another trade

Remember I’m a speculator lol
Not hoping this happens

5 hours left.......where's the rest of the moves?

I want to see what this Rangers FO is going to do. Obviously nothing major but this is the time you improve your team for the future, if you are good.

I think the Rangers still think they can get the wild card and will not do much of anything.

They did trade Bush right. Maybe no one wants what we have at the price we want for get
Maybe we want to resign Moore

We would be buying if we wanted WC

I can't imagine the Rangers think they can get to the WC as currently set up.

 

[scotsman1948]

Right. Woody is not going to let the Rangers get rid of his favorite player who is in the lineup everyday Calhoun.

Woody doesn't have a say on who can or cannot be traded don't know where you got that thought

we aren't built to compete for the WC even with Bush. have you noted how bad our BP was before the trade or how bad our starting pitching is?

I think that's what he meant when he said they would be buying if they wanted the WC.

I don’t even want to give up a low A ball prospect for gallo. Those at bats are better served elsewhere. I don’t know why this gallo nonsense keeps popping up.

Because the Yankees are getting rid of him and he has history with the Rangers.

All the Nats had to do was shorten the offered 15 year contract so Soto’s AAV would be higher than Trout’s. Seems like the Nats wanted to trade him.

they're rebuilding. makes sense to trade him instead of signing him.

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

they literally made a trade right then. Deadline Day + everyone tweeting is so entertaining.
