in-season trades and rumors 2015

it's Tulo time (again)

http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/mets/troy-tulowitzki-trade-mets-yankees-article-1.2219924

ten straight loses will do that

dave Cameron also mentioned in a chat that he thinks the brewers will def trade carlos gomez

brewers should trade garza too.. they just need a whole new team at this point.

tired phrase but the dodgers will be pretty damn active at the trade deadline looking for a #3 starter.. I assume they'll do a red sox deadline deal like last year where they trade a couple of scott van slyke, justin turner and alex guerrero instead of prospects to get someone while every gm on earth will insist on seager and urias as a starting point.

Tulo decided NOT to demand a trade.

@TBrownYahoo
Reports Tulo left game tonight with quad tightness. Could be media production, however.

cool, thx

last week, Jed Hoyer seemed to hint that there will be a big Mets-Cubs trade "eventually"

Cubs traded Welington Castillo to the Mariners for Yoervis Medina.

Juan Uribe to Barves, apparently

niewenhuis to the angels for 'cash'

Monopoly money will do.

The Mariners and Diamondbacks pulled off a trade yesterday. Mark Trumbo was sent to Seattle along with Vidal Nuno in exchange for Wellington Castillo, Dominic Leone, Jack Reinheimer, and Gabby Guerrero.

Dominic Leone! I heard she's cute

astros expressing interst in hamels

The Jays are going to go after Rafael Soriano (along with the Cubs and Cardinals).

the phillies have signed kevin correia lololol

career, career, correa, correia

Soriano going w the Cubs

love that soriano got a minor-league deal and correia (who was last league-average in 2007) a big-league one

ruben!

i guess the ML deal lets them move him through their system without having to go through waivers.

yeah, Aramis Ramirez, that'll help

http://www.amazinavenue.com/2015/6/10/8763015/mets-trade-rumors-brewers-ramirez-segura-new-york

perhaps they're bringing him in as a spine donor and they want one that they know has at some point played 3b

barves bought themselves 2014 first-rounder touki toussaint by agreeing to take on bronson arroyo's contract. dave stewart doesn't seem much better at this than kevin towers

@jonmorosi
Sources: #Rangers and #Phillies having ongoing dialogue about Cole Hamels, and he is willing to waive no-trade to Texas

sooooo when do they ask for joey gallo and get laughed out the fuckin room lol

pretty sure ruben is holding out for elvis andrus

The Philadelphia Phillies reportedly agreed to trade outfielder Ben Revere to the Los Angeles Angels in exchange for right-hander Trevor Gott, but Los Angeles backed out of the deal at the last minute. The Angels then tried redirect Philadelphia toward another pitching prospect, according to Nick Cafardo of The Boston Globe.

no relation to former blue jay/pirate/dodger great jim gott

who used to have God-Devil faceoffs vs Tim Teufel

joba to the blue jays on a minor league deal

nationals release jose valverde

gonna be excited when the phillies don't trade papelbon

The story I saw about Chris Johnson wanting the Barves to trade him was the funniest thing I'd seen all month.

scott kazmir to houston

@JeffPassan
One other guy whose name is everywhere: Pedro Alvarez. Said one GM: "Pirates want to get rid of him. They're offering him to everybody."

lol

do u want mike napoli for him and a prospect? im sure the sox will eat that

sure -- if the pirates get the prospect instead

i thought u guys had those

@BrinkPG
Sources: Pirates and Brewers nearing agreement on a trade that would send 3B Aramis Ramirez to Pittsburgh.

oh cool, they got the older version of pedro alvarez

a righty-lefty matching pair

12 years to the day since they traded him away

Ken Rosenthal ‏@Ken_Rosenthal 1m1 minute ago
Aramis Ramirez in July: .352/.422/.500 in 64 plate appearances. #Mets were not interested.

smart trade for both the a's and astros

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CKoM-2QUsAEwIQM.jpg

those two minor leaguers the a's acquired went from lancaster to stockton -- which are opening a four-game series against each other tonight. they just walked from one clubhouse to the other

Amazing. How often does that even happen?!

every once in a while -- i remember it happened to robbie erlin a few years ago and it was actually his day to start, but his new team opted to give him the night off

stockton started their new catcher, nottingham, tonight -- singled in his first at-bat

Supposedly down to the Jays and Royals for Cueto. Mixed feelings on whether I want the Jays to get him. We're 5.5 out, 3.0 for a wild-card, and who knows what they've offered.

i'd still be wary of his injury history, too. after the last time his arm exploded, didn't everyone say that he'd have to change his delivery? but then he didn't? he's a great pitcher obv, he just seems like a timebomb, like the slightly less fragile brett anderson.

@jaysonst
Hearing rumblings that Jonny Gomes could get traded by #Braves today, as much for what he brings off the field as on it.

#grit

hahahahahahahaha

Bowtie gets ruminative

@Ken_Rosenthal 23m23 minutes ago
#Padres’ trade candidates filing into #Marlins Park, preparing for a game they may never play.

Yanks-Kimbrel not happnin, kr sez

The Tigers are close to moving Yoenis Cespedes, Bob Nightengale of USA Today tweets. While the White Sox are involved, they aren’t the favorite.

@BNightengale 3m3 minutes ago
The #Whitesox were aggressive, but fell short, and now out of #Tigers Cespedes sweepstakes

cespedes to the mets!?!

YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

two minor leaguers, not Wheeler

probably nimmo imo mo o

Hope Cespedes re-signs with the Tigers. Sounds very possible.

fulmer and cessa to detroit. the former is having a v. good year at least

@Ken_Rosenthal
#Padres largely standing pat because GM A.J. Preller believes the team can reach the postseason, source says.

hahaha what

sigh

Cubs get RHP Tommy Hunter from Orioles for OF Junior Lake

oh look the red sox got another ben cherington special bullpen reclamation project for a PTBNL

*barfs*

happy for the mets though, 'grats morbs

welcome to Pittsburgh, JA Happ and Tarzan Morse

ja happ *and* joe blanton jfc

don't think the Pads can pull it off this year. but for next year, they're still looking alright.

@Gambo987
Dave Stewart tells Burns and Gambo the Padres wanted Paul Goldschmidt from the Dbacks for closer Craig Kimbrell....WOW

if true, that's ridiculous.

intersting how most of the prospects involved in these trades were pitchers (maybe even specifically lefties?) seems like there are a lot of guys who throw 95 and might or might not work, but fewer position players who can hit -- and no shortstops to speak of

kinda think domingo santana could be the next nelson cruz? good job brewers

Dodgers payroll is now at 306 Million, thats ridiculous.

it's beautiful

Chase Wrigley?

#broves

for chris johnson, it would seem

Swisher + Michael Bourn + $10M for Johnson

napoli to texas

The Jays got Cliff Pennington today, so I assume the Munenori era has come to a close. (He did make a nice double play last night.)

@jonmorosi
Sources: #SFGiants and #Phillies in ongoing talks about Chase Utley trade. Stage is advanced enough that prospect names have been discussed.

Sounds like a panik move to me

is he gonna miss a ton of time, now that he's destroyed my HACKING MASS team?

chutley to the dodgers, apparently

so happy, the Giants don't need him we have Joe Panik, though we do need some bench help. Utley wants playing time, see you later if your not a team player. clark kent has been doing fine...

ummm Panik hasnt played in 2 weeks....

Tomlison has been doing well. 2nd base is hardly a priority at the moment.

tigers acquire randy wolf for $

Haha christ

third in the international league in ERA & K this year! kinda surprised the jays never called him up considering their pitching issues

had no idea he was around

lefties never die

marlon byrd to the giants, as well

Jays are probably mad at Wolf because of his brother!

When I started watching the latest asswhipping last night, Johnny Gomes was a barves; switched to a movie, went back to the game, he's a Royal.

#clubhousepresence

Austin Jackson to Cubs

De Aza to SF

I assume all these happened yesterday before postseason roster deadline?
