You know what, I'm actually amazed the Pirats FO made a move. I was stunned that they traded for Kela. Then I realized they gave up a good prospect but not a back breaking one, and Kela has control so it makes sense.

I dunno.  Meadows for Archer?  I know they have extra years, but Dickerson's key to all this.  Don't screw it up, B.N.

It's true. This move is good, but it must lead to more. That's how the baseball transaction wheel works.
We'll see whether that means an extension for Corey Dickerson. He has proven himself worthy this season.

Trading Meadows and Glasnow though? That is downright Real-Major-League-Team-Like

Rays manager is talking about trading Archer to the Pirates. Sounds very done.

All day, even with the trade for the relief pitcher from Texas, I was hoping that somehow we could still make the trade for Archer. I am VERY happy now.

Kingham to the pen or minors?

Probably to the 'pen to take Glasnow's spot.

Official via the Pirates' account.
Meadows, Glasnow and a PTBL.

I think that'll do it for us.
Nez has to go write an A1 story.
