Moving from your own ideas to actual trades.

I don't blame ya, considering your Soto idea LMAOOO.

30 Jul 2023 23:03:09
What are you talking about? I have posted every trade that has gone down so far. Again, this site is meant for conversations and ideas. I’m not sure how long you’ve been here it used to be very fun and active. Relax on the toxicity and let’s move forward.

30 Jul 2023 18:09:22
Mariners / Cubs

Mariners:
Alexander Candelario OF
BJ Murray Jr INF
Michael Arias RHP

Cubs:
Paul Sewald CO.

Blue Jays - Angels Blockbuster Trade

Blue Jays trade to Angels

Vladimir Guerrero Jr.
Santiago Espinal
Cavin Biggio

Angels trade to Blue Jays

Shohei Ohtani

30 Jul 2023 19:26:17
Vlad is a really big price to pay if Ohtani isn’t signing an extension upon the two teams agreeing.

30 Jul 2023 03:24:16
Astros / Mets

Astros:
Justin Verlander RHP
25 million

Mets:
Ryan Clifford 1B/ OF

Mets look to buy another ascending prospect.

30 Jul 2023 03:22:00
Rangers / Mets

Rangers:
Max scherzer RHP
36.5 Million

Mets:
Luisangel Acuna INF/ CF

Seems like a hefty price for Rangers. Rangers going all in and Cohen buys a quickly ascending prospect.

29 Jul 2023 05:19:48
Yankees / Padres

Yankees:
Juan Soto OF
Nick Martinez RP

Padres:
Everson Pereira OF
Oswald Peraza INF
Drew Thorpe RHP
Chase Hampton RHP.

29 Jul 2023 22:04:40
Good lord this is hilariously bad. I can't even express how quickly the Padres would say no to this.

30 Jul 2023 03:19:43
Thorpe and Hampton are sky rocketing up rankings boards. Pereira is having an unbelievable year. Peraza was a top 50 prospect before the Yankees inept management.


With that being said, would make more sense for Padres to just resign him. But if they don’t/ can’t….

30 Jul 2023 03:28:48
“I don’t think this offer from the Yankees would be enough to get Soto from the Padres. Yankees would have to include (names) and add (players) to make it closer”.

You see how this site can be used to have a constructive conversation and give actual valuable input. That’s the point of this site. You should try that and we may see some more people actually post.

28 Jul 2023 21:16:58
White Sox / Marlins

Sox:
Jake Eder LHP
Jacob Amaya SS

Marlins:
Tim Anderson SS.

28 Jul 2023 21:15:48
ACTUAL DEAL:

White Sox / Dodgers

White Sox:
Nick Nastrini RHP
Jordan Leasure RP
Trayce Thompson

Nastrini is a solid get for LAD. LAD also has a bunch of solid arms so losing Nastrini doesn’t hurt.

White Sox / Astros

Sox:
Korey Lee C

Astros:
Kendall Graveman RP.

27 Jul 2023 21:06:29
Rangers / White Sox

Rangers:
Lance Lynn RHP
Joe Kelly RHP

White Sox:
Jonathan Ornelas INF
Josh Stephan RHP.

27 Jul 2023 11:48:57
LAA / CWS

Angels:
Lucas Giolito RHP
Reynaldo Lopez RHP

CWS:
Edgar Quero C
Ky Bush LHP

Seems to be a sellers market this year as Sox get baseballs #65 overall prospect + an arm for 2 rental arms. Angels making a pitch to Ohtani that they are trying.

27 Jul 2023 02:55:03
All trades are relatively solid outside of the STL trade. Have to think Carlson/ Edman pull a lot more than that. Cards also have a clog at C/ 1B already likely wouldn’t be interested in Bart. Cards need major league pitching and would look to acquire better pieces in a deal involving those 2.

27 Jul 2023 04:10:32
I think you need to look into Roupp & Black a bit more. Those guys are legit.

27 Jul 2023 11:31:46
I’m very aware of both prospects. Black is very solid. Roupp is 24 (way above average age of level) in AA just converted to a full time starter this year and hasn’t eclipsed 4 IP in an outing. Cards are going to be looking for MLB starters for the quality of players they are moving.

27 Jul 2023 13:11:38
No one is giving them "MLB starters" for league average hitters.

27 Jul 2023 13:15:05
"Roupp is 24 (way above average age of level) "

That's incorrect.

The average AA pitcher, in 2022, was 24.6 years old. Roupp is right in line with the average age, not "way above it. "

Good piece of advice: look something up before you say it. You're acting like Chi Sox.

27 Jul 2023 14:23:01
“Class AA (Double-A) - Players are more experienced at this level (average age is 22.3) and more likely to jump from here to the majors. AA teams may include former major leaguers who are there temporarily to recover from an injury or work out a performance problem before returning to the big club. “

My apologies for the slight exaggeration. But your trade with the cardinals is still awful.

27 Jul 2023 14:27:10
Also, not everyone is against you lol. I remember this site years ago being awesome and active. I come back for the deadline to see only you. I wonder why that is. Take a deep breath and try not to be so toxic. You’ve ruined the site.

30 Jul 2023 21:31:23
Imagine being so upset that someone called you out for inaccurate information that you accuse them of ruining a website.

Grow up.

26 Jul 2023 01:17:30
Cubs / Orioles

Cubs:
Coby Mayo 3B
Justin Armbruester RHP

Orioles:
Marcus Stroman RHP.

26 Jul 2023 15:10:17
This would be a comical overpay for Marcus Stroman.

14 Jul 2023 16:29:43
Is Trade #3 trolling?

Clearly you have to be trolling.

(The amount of money from Cohen would have be about $500M to even justify this trade)

14 Jul 2023 22:17:44
Natedog
I forgot to include one of either
Hamel, Zeigler or Vasil.

16 Jul 2023 01:06:11
Wait, you aren't trolling? YIKES.

This is horrendously bad. You're making Chi Sox look like a reasonable poster.

16 Jul 2023 01:10:51
To be clear, Harrison is one of the best LHP prospects in baseball. To get him, the Mets would need to give up Pete Alonso plus MULTIPLE prospects.

You're not getting him for two rental players plus a mediocre prospect.

20 Jul 2023 19:06:52
Dude an established major league player like Alonso is far more valuable than a prospect. They have been many highly touted prospects that don't work out.

20 Jul 2023 19:32:15
Look, I'm not going to accuse the guy who thought that Pham + Carrasco for Kyle Harrison was a good idea of knowing what they are talking about. but I'll help explain.

The Giants were going to take Harrison in the first round. Instead, they got him in the third (as a compensation pick for Bumgarner going to Arizona) . They've put high value on Bay Area and NorCal guys, and Harrison is from Concord.

To give up their top prospect, who is almost league ready (might even have been up post-ASG if it weren't for an injury) and is from the Bay Area? It's going to take one of the best players in baseball and more.

Point is: you're not getting Harrison, and you're certainly not getting him for Pham & Carrasco LMAOOOO.

27 Apr 2023 19:24:38
This will trigger Chi Sox, but it's legitimately time for the White Sox to rebuild (AGAIN!). After they fire Rick Hahn and Kenny Williams, let's trade the team:


Dodgers get: Tim Anderson (SS) and Lucas Giolito (RHP)

White Sox get: Michael Busch (2B), Nick Nastrini (RHP), Maddux Bruns (LHP), Dalton Rushing (C), Ryan Pepiot (RHP).

Orioles get: Liam Hendriks (RHP)
White Sox get: Cade Povich (LHP)

Padres get: Yasmani Grandal (C), Lance Lynn (RHP)
White Sox get: Jakob Marsee (OF), Reiss Knehr (RHP), Jackson Wolf (LHP)

D'Backs get: Aaron Bummer (LHP)
White Sox get: Dominic Fletcher (OF), Buddy Kennedy (3B)

The White Sox get to keep their outfield intact, and exchange rentals for really good deals.

30 Apr 2023 12:05:48
Typically, I don't like kicking people when they are down, and the epic Berto rant was enough for me to kinda feel bad for the White Sox.

However, I then remembered the multiple years of laughable, borderline trollish takes from Chi Sox on here and I don't feel bad.

Now I wonder if Chi Sox has gotten up off his knees for long enough to realize that Rick Hahn is and has been a disaster of a GM. But yet, he was so hilariously sure that every GM in baseball was trying to emulate him. LOLOLOLOLOL

Seriously, this White Sox team should thank the Athletics for existing, otherwise they might actually be the worst team in baseball right now.

15 Jan 2023 04:33:09
Twins/Marlins

Twins Get:
Pablo Lopez RHP

Marlins Get:
Luis Arraez 1B/2B
Max Kepler OF
