Rangers Trading Deadline Megathread

[saddles]

I get the feeling that we are going to be surprised at what JD gets for what he gives up. Just a hunch.

 

[saddles]

I noticed Smith had just 22 innings pitched this year. Was he on the DL?

I don't know.

 

[PhantomWarrior]

Kinda shocked Beltran hasn't been dealt yet, thought he may go early today. My guess is he is likely involved in a 3 team trade later today.

39 years old and a FA in the off season. I don't see why any team would offload any prospects of note for Beltran.

Yes, he came back in late June. I believe similar injury Colby has.

 

[Hambombs]

Just announced on MLB.com Johnson is the NL player of the week.

0 ERA 4 saves in that span. Hes been pitching well lately

Do we have Lucroy, Sale, Smith AND Guerra yet?!?!?!

 

[jaar01]

As much as SP is always a need, I think JD is very confident that Colby and Derek are going to come back good as new so why spend a lot of capital on a SP at this point unless he is a clear TORP.

My gut says Lucroy and a reliever and that is it. Or nothing.

Sprained his knee taking off his shoe in spring training

I want Thornburg or Jeffress

Don't think Jeffress is going to be dealt. They gave up their previous closer Will Smith. Don't think the Brew Crew is going to empty the pen of all their good relievers. Unless they get something in return to restock next year.

Lol wut

Moreland is AL player of the week.

Yes and the 'horrible' Braves Johnson is the NL player of the week.

They stink, no reason to hold onto relievers if you're rebuilding, they're so volatile from one year to the next, get value while you can

haha was jk! I agree...I think we get a bat and a reliever with both Colby and Holland coming back in the next 4-6 weeks.

Rangers hard after Carlos Beltran

According to TR Sullivan

FWIW

 

[jaar01]

Carlos Beltran? Please no.

Meh, teams have done worse. If the Yanks are looking to move him, some team will bite. I'm very doubtful it will be the Rangers but I wouldn't be disappointed as long as we didn't give up anyone to significant.

 

[True Rangers Fan]

White Sox said to be holding onto their SP. My gut feeling is they're going to regret that.
