The Angels are still looking to trade people. They apparently sought Franklin
Arias for Neto..
Here is an overall trade tracker.
Harrison Bader was drunk driving a scooter when he ran into the back of a fire truck. The fire truck then ran over his foot. That’s the end of his season. The Giants suspended his pay while they look into the matter.
The Giants traded Tyler Mahle to the Braves.
The Dodgers acquired Tarik Skubal from the Tigers in exchange for three good prospects.
The Rays are designating Craig Kimbrel for assignment. They acquired Freddy Peralta from the Mets in exchange for three prospects.
J.P. France just got a minor league deal with the Padres.
Kenley Jansen got mad that somebody bunted for a base hit and said something that cleared the benches at a Tigers-Athletics game. Speaking of the Tigers, they just released left-hander Sean Guenther.
Kirby Yates, at the wire. Anyone yet seen the return? Bag of peanuts and a soda?
Fan since 1965 in Canda. Saw Ryan’s no-hittter against Baltimore in person. Surived the traumas of 86 and 95 to experience the elation of 2002. Saw Trout when he first came up and Ohtani.
Mo is doing a job today. Bewary of dealing Detmers or Neto. I see the NY Mets of 69 if we don’t get impatient. Rotation – Urena, Detmers, Rodriguez, Kirkuchi, (Klassnen, Dana,Johnson) Relief – Natera, Murphy, Fermin, Bachman, Joyce.
RF: Meckler
CF: Rada, Trout
LF: Rada , Siri
1b: Schanuel, Cozart(?)
2b: Grissiom
SS: Neto
3b: Guzman
C: D’Arnaud/Heinmen, Cozart(?)
DFA: Soler, Lowe, Yates (still around?), Stephenson (when possible), Frazier
Coaching Staff: Suzuki – gone, Anderson – gone; Maddux keep. Who is the manger for the Trash Pandas?
Owner: Moreno – sell or lock him out of any baseball decisions.
This is a start.

Moz going scorch Earth.
Swinging the wrecking ball.
who’d we get?
A backup catcher and a lottery ticket pitcher
Moises is only 22, could be a lot more than a backup catcher I’d think?
Brewers and their cheap asses acquire Dustin May. Don’t see that as a needle mover at all.
Chicago based reporters were reporting Detmers to the cubs. National media then shot it down. Don’t know what to think.
Damn, they pivoted and got Garrett from Miami.
One less team in the Detmers market, cmon Brewers and Braves.
Also very cowardly by Miami.
And there it is. Adley to Boston.
Jays up to something strange?

Ok if the Jays flip Soriano for profit, I might join Jack Frost and feel some type of way.
Robbie Ray to the Padres. Wasn’t sure if Preller was going to buy or sell.
Ooooohh! Rays got Liam Hicks! I like that for the Majestic Sea Flappy Flaps
4 hours to go. I wonder what Detmers and Neto are doing? Are they hoping the phone rings?
Neto is probably putting on his eye black as we speak while Reid is still shaking his head from being pulled after 5 innings from his last start.
Yes, and while Neto is putting on the mascara, he’s humming to himself….
The moment I wake up
Before I put on my makeup (Makeup)
I say a little (Prayer for you)
And while I’m combing my hair now
And wondering what dress to wear now (Wear now)
I say a little (Prayer for you)
Happy for Jo. Indians are a very good organization and I hope we can get there one day.
He’ll probably blow up in Cleveland, reaching his full potential…. we will then see how people feel about all these trades…. Actually, like you I will be happy for Jo… especially if he becomes a consistent .260-.270 guy with 25-35 HR per year….
he’s had 7 years to do it here so it probably wasn’t going to happen here
Sounds like Rutschman to the Red Sox is happening.
Does this mean the “Jo Adell Football Jersey” and “Bobblehead” promotions are cancelled?
The team should honor Jo’s legacy and reward the fans with the bobblehead. It’s too sick not to
Watch eBay….Arte the profiteer will make a deal
Only one top 50 prospect has been traded thus far: Nimmala to the Angels. Two top 100 guys: Nimmala and Hope.
Top 100 guys just don’t get traded with great frequency at the deadline.
Nimmala is the 3rd or 4th best project traded so far?? I know a couple from the Dodgers are high on the list- who else?
In the past following other teams, some will announce BEFORE the trade deadline that X, Y, & Z Top Prospects are off limits. It appears that several teams had a list of NON-tradeable.
Like that one guy on the Red Sox that everyone wants
Just a reference.
Baseball Prospect (MLB Pipeline I think) doesn’t have him in the top 100 nor in the top 10 in shortstops. While I think it was a solid trade, we must remember these “experts” are rating 10-20 year old kids. Just like we do. We are only expressing an opinion and at this time, no one knows which trades will turn out GREAT or HOW DUMB WAS MOZ.
Trigger warning. 😂

Pirates would be fools…
The simultaneous explosive implosion would be a beautiful sight.
Do it. Do it now.
let me tell you a story about a man named Jed…. Might like to engage in click bait, and his face never turns red 🎼 (think the theme from The Beverley Hillbillies)
but what do I know, was sent this 10 times last night and I know nothing about Jed. But same sensational crazy crap from the same guy.

Regarding the Doyers,
Branch Rickey is spinning in his grave. He basically invented the farm system because John McGraw and the Giants could just buy everyone good.
Jo was the handsomest son of a bitch we’ve had since forever. Best beard in the Majors. Breathtaking in home whites. But yeah… never quite the impact bat we hoped. That three-homer-robbery game this season is an all-time org highlight.
good summation
Red Sox in talks to get Rutchsman from the O’s. I think the potential Neto deal is now on the rear view mirror
I think they are trying to find the biggest player on the block that won’t cost them Arias. There are reports that they inquired about Elly and Otto Lopez, and similarly, the Reds, Marlins, and Angels all want the same guy.
With the way Moz just jack-hammered this team today, I hope that’s a good sign that Molly convinced him to stay for the longer haul.
Maybe he actually works for another team and is just a “plant.” Just kiddidng.
I’m thinking just Detmers left. It does seem like a buyers market now on the final day with sellers trying to get their pieces out before the buyers dry up.
Wouldn’t settle on Neto. I think I would keep Zef too. If his strong 2nd half carries over into the next year and the Angels slap a few more saves on him, that asset will only go up.
