For My Trade Deadline Predictions 1.0 video, it's early so I am mixing in an element of what I think should happen: I think the Mets should trade assets away & not buy anything...even a little bit. I hate to say it, but I think the Jays should trade Bo Bichette - they're not going anywhere this year, they've gone nowhere with him & Vladdy so the best thing to do is deal him, extend Vladdy and take the haul from a Bo trade. Only thing I'd change from recording & editing (last week): I'd move Jack Flaherty up in the ranking that accompanies the predictions. COMMENT WITH YOUR PREDICTIONS BELOW

Cleveland needs top of the rotation pitching.

I don't see the Dodgers targeting Bichette when Miggy Rojas is outplaying him this year. The Dodgers biggest need is obviously at CF. They could also use a lefty in their rotation. This brings me back to the White Sox. If the Dodgers are going to press and give up top prospects, they should push for Crochet and Robert Jr.

The Mets are not trading Alonso, JD Martinez or Severino by the trade deadline. They have as much chance at a wildcard, as the others. They should be looking for relievers, and trade some other pieces.

Mets have been as hot as the Yanks have been cold, I agree NL is full of middling teams, think Phillies, Braves, Dodgers, Padres, and even the Brewers are realistically all better though. I do think Mets will buy cause they got money and are a little reckless. Think third wildcard might be between Mets, Cards and Diamondbacks, maybe even Nationals but they got to work on their pitching and fielding a bit.

Dodgers don't have the prospects to get Bo. They aren't getting him for what's been proposed. Jays aren't taking prospects who can't field, hit or are #4 starters at best. So don't think he would come that cheap.

Everyone acts like Burnes will leave Baltimore after this season. If the O’s make the WS, he stays. He is smart enough to know that the Orioles will be competitive for years to come. Why would he go?

I think Astros would secure a World Series if they get mason miller. With all the great hitters we have this season. That would be a key piece to any team in the playoffs.

I certainly hope the Dodgers are able to pull Skubal from Detroit (unless they try to glue Baez), it's just that I'm just not sure Crochet will be able to last the rest of the season AND playoffs. As for Robert...don´t care who else might get him, I'm convinced the best OF for the Dodgers is Arozarena. Other than that Tanner Scott is the one I'd look for. Bo would be the cherry ontop but he'd be 4th on my list. Edit: unless they can't get Randy....then Bo might jump all the way to 2nd, behind a LH starter

The gaurdians are going to be aggressive. They have to be in the conversation right now to grab players.

We need an outfielder with current pop in his bat this year. Unfortunately of all the outfielders available. None of them are really shining.

You think the Astros do nothing? They have a vacuum at first and their entire pitching staff has been injured… they’re over .500 for the first time all season. They’re buying or selling, they aren’t doing nothing.

What do you have against the Dodgers?

I Think yankees try get mason Miller and Garrett chohert and scott Tanner ? For trade ?

I got a gut feeling Trout may be on the Braves the second half of the season. Reason I say is May 31st AA was on 680 The Fan and the host ask on a scale of 1-10 if he whispered the name how excited would they get. He never thought about even answering that. So to me it would be a 10 and who has been tied to the Braves besides Trout that would cause a 10 reaction. He said his 11 year old son really likes the player and is asking him non stop if the other team had got back yet. He also said for 2 years no one knew he worked on getting Sale as an example how slow a trade can go. Look how long every mention of trade and Trout in the same sentence you are probably gonna hear the Braves. He also said something to the effect how the process works and the team will get back and say we like these 4-5 players. That is what it would take and I think Trout would wave his no trade for the Braves. Just my opinion with Trout hurt AA sees his opportunity with a club he has good relationship with.

Luis Robert is injury prone, and this yr his stat is not good enough

@gdn86

Күн бұрын

Just means the White Sox would get lower offers, but if he is healthy, I do not doubt the talent. There is not a prospect in the Phillies organization that is untouchable right now. Painter won't even pitch until next season, and who knows what you're getting after TJ surgery. I think his timeline is 2026 to expect even what he was before that injury. Able has been bad this season, but still has some value. Crawford is 2-3 years away. Miller is 2 years away and there is a logjam for any starting infield spot, so his value is higher to them as a trade piece at this point. And these are all prospects. Most likely none or only 1 will be successful. If you had to move all 4 to get Robert, yeah it's a huge risk, but I don't believe it takes that much. Likely Miller and Crawford, and a 3rd mid-tier prospect gets it done, which I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Jazz or Rooker to the Braves would be awesome IMO. Crochet sounds like an AA type of move to me. Braves need an outfield bat also who do you see them getting?

I think it is a someone that no one ever thought and it will be a shock factor of a 10. If you get a chance look up on X the May 31st episode on 680 The Fan and listen to the last 6-7 minutes. The host said on a scale of 1-10 how excited would they be if he whispered the players name. He never acknowledged the question because he knew it would give it away and that was him saying 10 by ignoring. Only one player could cause that much excitement that has been tied to the Braves and its Trout. He said his 11 year old son really like the player and is pretty much excited. If anyone could get him it would be AA because of his relationship with people on that team. I think he has wanted him for a while and Trout with a no trade clause which I think he would wave for the Braves it would be cheaper than people would think if the Braves took on the whole or majority of the remaining contract. Yes it would cost a lot but Trout coming off injury he see his opportunity and says some trades take a while to play out. He said no one knew but it took him 2 years to get Sale and how long has Trout if he ever is traded been tied to the Braves

And as always remember: If it’s low; let it go. If it’s high; let it fly.

Phils......Rojas definitely. Abel? Lousy record; a throw in. Are two of Crawford, Miller or Painter worth a World Series? Losing one of the pitchers will really put pressure to extend Ranger - they need to do that anyway. Is there enough left grab another reliever like Chapman?

First off the Phillies will not get anything for a Johan Rojas trade he brings no trade value. No team will want him.

The Phillies will most likely trade for someone like Kyle Tucker who they really need desperately now more than ever. Oh the Phillies should not extend Rangers contract yet. Their main priority should be right now to trade for another power hitting outfielder that’s their biggest need. They also need another quality starting pitcher for the rotation.

No way in Hell the Dodgers trade for Bichette. He has no bat and that's what they're looking for. They already have a glove first SS and his name is Miggy Ro. Miggy has brought his bat so far this year as well.

The Mets will be buying

yes, I'm sure the Dodgers are just counting the days until Toronto lets them pay several top prospects for a bad-fielding shortstop with a .623 OPS. And not a single pitcher going to LA? Seriously? I asked you on your live-stream and I'll ask you again... who is going to pitch in October for LA, besides Glasnow and Stone?

Luis Robert Jr. to the Diamondbacks…

Alonso doesn't make any sense for the M's, this feels like cope more than an actual prediction. He's only running a 131 wRC+ this season and will cost a ton. Seattle could go get IKF, Canha, and DeJong to raise the teams floor to basically what adding Alonso's ceiling would be for significantly less. I think the ultimate Dipoto move will be for Vlady Jr and another super utility guy like Varsho or IKF (maybe a pitcher) from Toronto. Seattle and the BJs line up way too well for a trade not to happen between them at or before the deadline. I don't see it happening with the Mets, not enough in one place to pull off the kind of deal the Mariners are looking for. Nice try!

I think the O’s will get an impact starting pitcher (preferably with postseason experience) and two high leverage impact arms for the bullpen.
