All about getting the right price in return.
And while those three have been disappointing, Lee, Igliotto, and Isbel have not. Gabe Cancel is also someone worth watching (2B leading the Texas league in HR and 2B, very Jonathan Schoop-ish). [Reply]

The only deal I’ve seen on twitter that was close was one from a SanDiego fan who proposed Luis Urias, Ryan Weathers, and Buddy Reed for him. And that was maybe a bit light.
If it was me I’d be going after the Padres pitchers...Gore, Patino & Morejon. [Reply]

With so many teams in contention for the wild card (and the NL central pennant), you'd think a team that sees a multi-year window opening might be willing to deal. [Reply]

He should have been DFA'd months ago.
At the end of May he was on a nice
Run and looked exactly like what they hoped he would be - someone they could flip at the deadline and get something for (nothing major, but something).
His June has been awful, though. Still wouldn’t cut him because someone will probably be willing to take a chance on a lefty who throws as hard as Diekman does. [Reply]
