Trade Rumors Thread

Rumblings that the Yankees and Phils would swap Dom Brown for Betances so that the Phils could send Betances for Pence

That would be awesome. Brown is a 5-tool stud.

 

[elcheato]

More like potential 4-tool. Hes an atrocious defensive player.

Where would he play..?

 

[Yankees2772]

In AA or AAA.

That.

We wouldn't need him up here now and it's obvious he could still use a little work in the minors.

But he is hitting .300 with a .400 OBP this month. No homers though

ew, i hope the yankees dont get Dom Brown

 

[Mexi]

i hate public perception

now is absolutely the time to trade Andre Ethier

but if the Dodgers did, everyone would be killing McCourt even more for trading their 2nd best offensive player. media, most fans (not the one's who get it i like me)

he's getting expensive
cant hit lefties
D is pretty bad

ugh. i hate this

Sucks what's happening with Kuroda. Dodgers can probably get a decent prospect for him, but he won't accept any deals.

Oh alright makes sense, then he will replace Swisher in a year or two. If this could happen it would be great, like you said he's got a lot of potential.

No, the Dodgers are just being ridiculously stingy about moving him. Their asking price is reportedly a lot higher than anyone is willing to give for him.

 

[elcheato]

He also has a no trade clause and doesn't want to leave the West Coast..

 

[Elite]

I'm well aware, that doesn't change the fact that the Dodgers have been really unreasonable in the trade discussions. As far as I know he has yet to block a trade yet.

As of 5:15 p.m., NL source says the Phillies have no intention of putting Domonic Brown in a deal for Pence.

 

[Mexi]

well, i dont know what the Dodgers are asking from teams, but in their defense, Hiroki is the best pitcher available (well, unless Ubaldo is really being shopped. idk if the Rockies will deal him. even so, Hiro has been better this year)

whatever. other teams loss. he could really really help a team out
and dont worry about him in the AL. he'll be fine
he's not a junk ball pitcher. he has excellent stuff

#Indians still looking for another bat, aiming for #Rockies' Jimenez. #tradedeadline #MLB

Can't believe the Indians are actually trying to get a deal for Jimenez done.. Surprising. Could use another bat as well..

 

[Mexi]

Jamey Carroll isnt starting tonight
not that big a deal normally, but when Uribe is also not starting, it's kind of a big deal

Jamey is our backup, but when one of Furcal/Blake/Uribe doesnt play, he and Miles play everyday

hmmmmmm

I'd rather get Eric Bedard than Kuroda

 

[The Guid]

Bedard would not be a good fit here, I don't want him.

Heard that Carlos Quentin could be moved out of Chicago and the Braves may be a frontrunner. I, personally, think that's a good fit. I'd like to see it happen.

 

[bosoxlover12]

Bedard would not be a good fit here, I don't want him.

i dont either, but i really dont want Kuroda AT ALL.

 

[The Guid]

I don't think they'll get either and I'm okay with that. If anything they grab someone cheap and probably off radar. Don't know why they haven't given Doubront a shot yet though.
