Encarncion-Strand and Steer have been absolutely raking in the high minors, that's a pretty good get for CIN.
Marsh hasn't hit much, but he's a massive upgrade defensively compared to the parade of DH's the Phillies currently play in the OF. Good get for them.
Wow SD getting Brandon Drury too - he’s having a huge year in Cincy

Another one: The San Diego Padres are dealing for Brandon Drury, who's having a career year and can play all around the diamond, sources tell ESPN.

I came here to say the same. He’s stumbling over his words pretty badly. Sad.

Fine, here's a trade: The Guardians acquired pitcher Ian Hamilton from the Twins for catcher Sandy León.

The conversation started with the Soto trade and ended with Gammons in a parking garage with Luchhino in 1998.
I didnt know he was still in the game

That would have been news four years ago when he had the illusion of being a good pitcher on a bad team. The Tigers really blew an opportunity by trading him. Now the Giants will even get slightly more despite him never throwing a pitch in an official game for them.
He had two rough outings in the very beginning of July. In the last four weeks his ERA is .90, his WHIP is .90, and he has 6 saves and no blown saves. He has a 12/2 K/BB ratio over 10 innings.
Petriello looked into it a bit and thinks he may be tired and it may be affecting his arm angle on his sinker, thread here:

They've also DFA'd Odubel Herrera and Familia. Two additions by subtraction. The additions of Robertson and Marsh are a bonus.

I think his whole season has probably been a fluke, but aside from a couple of hiccups he's somehow gotten the job down. I have no idea how. But he should be more thorough. He's given up one run in his last ten innings so it's kind of misleading.

Bader (StL) to NYY for Jordan Montgomery per MLBN
MLBN thought NYY was after Pablo Lopez, but no deal.
NYY after Rodon?

He's been on the IL with plantar fasciitis and had a setback recently on a AAA rehab start. When healthy, he's probably the best defensive CF in the league, but his plate discipline is awful.
Dylan Carlson has played a phenomenal CF while Bader has been out. I love this deal for St. Louis.
I'm a bit surprised the Phillies gave up on him. He was the #1 overall pick in 2016 and had a real shot at earning the CF job this year until he fractured a hand in spring training. He's still young enough to turn it around but he's been underwhelming at the big league level so far. Marsh seems like what they were expecting out of Moniak this year.
The very definition of MLB GM malpractice:

Being considered fully vaxxed is at least a two week process, right? Assuming he gets the one-shot variety, anyway. So if he's vaxxed and good to join the Jays in Toronto when they return from their current road trip (8/11), he should have already gotten the shot. Which kinda begs the question of why he couldn't be bothered to do it for the Royals series up there.
Either way, I guess we'll find out next Friday.
Bailing on Iglesias in year 1 of a 4 year megadeal is something. (think it's a good idea though)

Love this because I can troll all the Cubs fans in my life. I can’t believe they sent Contreras out to say goodbye to the fans and then keep him.
Happ has another year of control. I’m sure they’ll shop him this off-season, but his value will be that much lower.
I’m not sure why they didn’t move Contreras. Even the Sox’ return for Vasquez is likely better than the comp pick the Cubs will get from a qualifying offer.
