Package deal: Nola and Covey for Snell and Hader. We can throw in Turner as a sweetener.

Good luck finding someone to take that Turner contract

I was joking. I'd be a terrible GM.

I bet you would be better than Klentak

Probably but that's not a high bar.

I would bet that the Padres would be willing to exchange bogaerts for Turner even though Turner’s not hitting well. both of those contract at the moment don’t look good and have a decade left on them 

tbh i actually think petco fits the type of hitter turner is more than CBP. He’s has some power but really he’s a doubles and triples type guy and at petco i think that fits better. CBP is better for power hitters (except this year as we seem to lack it besides schwarber)

 

Would’ve been more funny if somehow the angels lost that game

Bellinger doesn’t make a lot of sense.  They need a righty

He’s hitting .344 vs. lefties and .295 vs. righties. I couldn’t give a flying F less if he’s a lefty if he hits like that. Also look at the right handed bats that are actually available. None are hitting that well in their splits. Plus he’s a gold glove outfielder and good at first for when harper has a day off at first. 

to point out he’s hitting better against lefties then all the right handed batters available at the deadline. And better than most against right handed pitchers then the RH batters available. 

If they dealt for bellinger i really don’t think their lineup would be too left handed to where they run into problems. I’m guessing Thomson would do this 

1. schwarber (Lefty)

2. Turner (righty) 

3. harper (lefty)

4. Castellanos (righty)

5. Bellinger (lefty)

6. Realmuto (righty)

7. Stott (lefty)

8. bohm (righty)

9. Marsh/Rojas/pache (platoon depending on the starting pitcher which they like to do anyway with marsh) 

 

Oooooooooooook

Wouldn’t mind it in that case.  He’s going to cost a lot though and is a free agent after this year

I think cost is really the bigger issue. If it’s actually de La Cruz and rincones I’m 100% doing it. Have Crawford, Rojas and marsh as young players under control. And harper is likely going back to OF at some point. Have a feeling it’s gonna cost  McGarry and de La Cruz.

Would be pretty underwhelming

Cubs are 4 back of the WC and 5.5 back of the division. You can forget about Bellinger at this point.

This.  They aren’t selling

At this point, I doubt they would unless you severely overpay. It’s why I said you’ll probably have to put McGarry in there, De La Cruz, and likely another prospect like Ricones. I doubt the Phillies want to pay that severe of a price to make the cubs make the move for a rental and even then the cubs may ask for more  

At this point, you’re likely looking at an Adam Duvall, who since coming back from his wrist injury in early June hasn’t looked all that great. Since June 1 he’s .200/.272./373/.645 with 4HRs. I frankly do not want to give up prospects for a 35 year old that in three of the last five years has shown he doesn’t stay healthy and one of the years only played 60 games so you don’t know if you would’ve stayed healthy. He’s a power or really nothing type of hitter. We already have that in Schwarber. He’s better defensively but he also is likely to miss games as he’s shown that the last couple years. His 2021 is the outlier year

I tend to think the cardinals would ask for 3 of the dodgers top 6 prospects and likely a major league guy like Chris Taylor or outman cause i don’t think the cardinals feel the need or have to trade him. Also curious to know what the dodgers have heard with ohtani. They set themselves up financially to make the splash for Ohtani in the offseason. I don’t think when they did that it included adding someone like arenado with what he’s owed.
