Whatever happened with Schwarber? Obviously (?) he can’t be going to the Yankees too. Perhaps he’s an option at 1B for Sox?
The other plan starts with C and ends with raig Kimbrel.I hope the Sox have a plan C, because neither of those teams will have a hard time putting up better prospects than the Sox.
Schwarber is more of an unknown than Franchy when it comes to playing first at this point.Whatever happened with Schwarber? Obviously (?) he can’t be going to the Yankees too. Perhaps he’s an option at 1B for Sox?
Probably got a better prospect package to help keep the Yankees out of the tax.View: https://twitter.com/jackcurryyes/status/1420877917429583877?s=21
Cubs pick up all of his salary?

I mean, he could.Whatever happened with Schwarber? Obviously (?) he can’t be going to the Yankees too. Perhaps he’s an option at 1B for Sox?
Their #7 and #12 apparently.Probably got a better prospect package to help keep the Yankees out of the tax.
Wow, I actually agree with Hank ScorpioRizzo is probably like the 6th best option of guys we could trade for at first. Whatever.
Can he play first and hit over .250?Berrios (or berries as autocorrect wants to call him) is the real prize.
Indeed.The reactionary takes in this thread are straight out of 1995-2003.
I agreed with Crow yesterday ... weirdWow, I actually agree with Hank Scorpio
You know we're in first place and are getting one of the best pitchers in baseball back shortly, right?But unlike the Yankees we're considered legit contenders right now, and outside maybe the Giants we're the only ones that haven't improved the team at all.
Brice?You know we're in first place and are getting one of the best pitchers in baseball back shortly, right?
People say the prospects are good but Yankees Reddit is calling it a steal. So I dunno.How many more teams are going to finance trades with the Yankees? It’s a joke.
Yankees Reddit doesn’t know who Alcantara is. You can pay me for my insight on the way out.People say the prospects are good but Yankees Reddit is calling it a steal. So I dunno.
Times have changed, haven 't theyHow many more teams are going to finance trades with the Yankees? It’s a joke.
As long as they keep forking over prospects, I really don't mind. They can't buy a player mid-season (ask Bowie Kuhn) so if they've wasted chips on marginal players to get a sniff of the Wild Card, I'm cool with that.How many more teams are going to finance trades with the Yankees? It’s a joke.
Yeah - I enjoyed that.I know a single game shouldn't really matter, but the Yankees losing 14-0 with Cole pitching poorly is definitely helping me to maintain an even keel as news rolls in.
Like the Red Sox did in the Ottavino trade? Teams are just buying prospects. Nbd.How many more teams are going to finance trades with the Yankees? It’s a joke.
I still don't understand why the Twins would want to trade Berrios?Berrios is still in the lineup. Game starts in a hour.
This is particularly odd one day after Fairbanks had to leave the game with an injury.Yankees buying everyone meanwhile the Rays, instead of adding, have umm traded their closer Diego Castillo to Seattle.
I don’t disagree but it’s never fun seeing the Yankees improve their team AND as much as everyone hopes that Sale will come back and be a force …. Well, who knows. With so much talent seemingly available to improve it’ll be really annoying to not pick up some impact player.You know we're in first place and are getting one of the best pitchers in baseball back shortly, right?
They’re not gonna re-sign him, for some reason they’ve given up on contending next year, and his value will only decline from here on out.I still don't understand why the Twins would want to trade Berrios?
Wait, someone explain this to me. You add Nellie Cruz but subtract Diego for presumably prospects?You can take Diego Castillo off the board as possible bullpen help, as the Rays traded him to Seattle.

In other news, Diego Castillo was available as possible bullpen help.
There are a lot of players out there available. Scherzer and Berrios might be the top pitchers but the Red Sox don't need an ace. It's a nice to have. The Yankees NEED lefties.I don’t disagree but it’s never fun seeing the Yankees improve their team AND as much as everyone hopes that Sale will come back and be a force …. Well, who knows.

Because he turned down an extension with them last week.I still don't understand why the Twins would want to trade Berrios?
They don’t need to which is why the price is reportedly through the roof. He’s under control through next year and the twins are aiming to contend next year.I still don't understand why the Twins would want to trade Berrios?
Must be going for KimbrelYankees buying everyone meanwhile the Rays, instead of adding, have umm traded their closer Diego Castillo to Seattle.
Alright, so from us that could be Pivetta, Downs, and Groome. Run it in.They don’t need to which is why the price is reportedly through the roof. He’s under control through next year and the twins are aiming to contend next year.
Apparently the ask from the Mets was an MLB’er and two out of their top 6 prospects.
I saw that Buxton turned down an extension but I haven't seen that Berrios did the same.Because he turned down an extension with them last week.
Again, maybe they don’t NEED them, but when the deadline passes and NY/TB/TOR all improve with major adds, it sure helps if they also add someone that could be a significant impact.There are a lot of players out there available.

correctAs last "season" was a mess I have kind of lost track, but if I recall the waiver wire deal is no longer a thing, correct?
SecondedLike the Red Sox did in the Ottavino trade? Teams are just buying prospects. Nbd.
No rush. Trust Bloom.
