Clemmey alone was a good get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JetsandI Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 It is a good addition and subtraction movement by Yankees. In is Mark Leiter Jr; Out is Caleb Ferguson. Many of us Yankee fans want Jack Neely to be on Yankees roster but Leiter is on hook for 2 more seasons after this season I think. As I expect Yankees won't make a big splash today.

Sllim Pickens Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 Another meh trade deadline for the Tigers. Wait around and get very little. Moved Chafin for some scraps who likely won't see the majors, held onto Flaherty and Skubal (glad we kept Skubal but should have moved Flaherty). Given the price of pitching, especially pitching with control left, the Tigers should have moved at least one of Flaherty, Mize, or Manning.

naptownskinsfan Posted July 30 Author Share Posted July 30 I understand getting Eloy Jimenez to play against LHP, but who is playing defense in LF? This is a weird trade to digest for the Orioles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agarcia34 Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 (edited) Jack Flaherty to the Dodgers Kevin Kiermaier also to the Dodgers Happy with the Dodgers additions at the deadline. Got some good depth on offense and another SP and a bullpen arm. Need to get the others healthy and back to pitching like they can.

We traded Flaherty to the Dodgers but dunno the return yet ** potentially Thayron Liranzo and Trey Sweeney. Still pretty underwhelming, especially considering what the Jays got for Kikuchi **** Canha to the Giants for Eric Silva. We got something for a few guys we knew wouldn't be back, but it's not a great return anywhere. I think we got 1 potential impact player in Thayron Liranzo. I don't think anyone else will be a regular major leaguer. Edited July 30 by nagahide13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naptownskinsfan Posted July 31 Author Share Posted July 31 So let’s get this straight: Orioles trade three org top 20 guys for SP Zach Eflin, contract through 2025 Orioles trade OF Austin Hays for RP Seranthony Dominguez and OF Cristian Pache. Orioles trade 2B Connor Norby and OF Kyle Stowers for SP Trevor Rogers, contract through 2026 Orioles trade minimal return for DH Eloy Jimenez, basically guaranteeing him a $6m buyout Orioles trade two pitching prospects for RP Gregory Soto, contract through 2025 Orioles trade cash considerations for Austin Slater Orioles recalling Jackson Holliday Orioles designating SP Cole Irvin for assignment How does the roster play out? I’ve got Eflin and Rogers to the rotation to join Burnes, Rodriguez and Kremer. Povich back to minor leagues, and Albert Suarez to the bullpen as a long reliever/multi-inning guy. I guess Pache is replaced by Slater. Holliday replaces Norby. Another reliever goes for Soto. Slater is probably getting ABs against LHP in LF, as Jimenez will DH. Unless the Orioles are seeing something in Rogers that they can correct, I’m just not sure this amounts to anything other than reshuffling the deck chairs on the Titanic for 2025. There is no stopper at #3 in a playoff series. The bullpen doesn’t get a difference-maker, and it is entirely possible that they do not have Danny Coulombe and Felix Bautista for the playoffs.

He might develop but he is a high risk prospect. Sweeney might be able to be a small upgrade to Kreidler but again, not likely. Silva is a potential RP but doubt he ever makes it to the bigs.

I know supposedly the Yankees balked at Flaherty's medicals, maybe that was a widespread thing and it depressed value? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to be optimistic, but Dave Roberts is the Dodgers achilles heel. He's cornered the market on postseason underachieving. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
