[scotsman1948]

Could have lived without Grossman

 

[Nightcrawler]

Duran in a funk. he looks so bad right now. Need him to snap out of it,

 

[BULLPEN FAILURE]

that is not an ideal lineup.

 

[saddles]

 

[Senator_fan]

For a 2-month rental no more than 2 of those plus 1 or 2 low level prospects

Some of those guys may be gone in other trades before any Ohtani trade if that even happens.

So true. We need relievers and at least 1 quality starter and then we can think about a dream

That's what I'm thinking, too.
Two more relievers of Smith and Chapman's caliber and a SP that is at least a solid #3.
Another bat would be helpful, too.

Personally I think that another bat is way down the list.

 

[saddles]

Anyone interested?

 

[Kelleyman]

JD aim the house

 

[armadillooutlaw]

Anyone interested?

Yes, for the right price. He's obviously young and under control for a few more years, however this is his first really good year and he comes with injury concerns.

CY looks like he could pick JD up with one hand.

 

[scotsman1948]

The Rays do have the prospects

 

[saddles]

Which five guys in the Rangers organization are most likely to be traded in the next 15 days?

Here are my picks, plus some others.

Acuna
Foscue
Roby
Saggese
Huff

My next five would be:

Zavala
Bradford
Bratt
Smith J
Duran

Next tier is:

Church
Speas
Lowe
Wendzel
Teodo
Leiter
Rocker
Carter
Crim
Stephan


Now, this is the list according to likelihood, as I see it. It isn't necessarily who I would choose to trade.

 

[saddles]

Let's win 2 of these 3 games.

 

[saddles]

Max Clark signs for $600,000 below slot.
