Should Rick Hahn go after Syndergaard now and get his “ace” since free agency is weak at SP?  No guarantee they land Cole.
Connor Byrne
6:24
(referring to White Sox GM Rick Hahn) - it's not as crazy as it sounds, as the Sox did go after an unsigned Machado via trade last summer. However, there hasn't been any Syndergaard/White Sox scuttlebutt yet.

No place for andujar...what’s his value 2nd in ROY
Connor Byrne
6:26
I don't think he's going anywhere during a lost season. I know Urshela has been amazing this year, but can the Yankees really count on that happening again? Is an Encarnacion return a sure bet? Maybe Andujar will DH for them in 2020. GM Brian Cashman loves Andujar, FWIW.
Friedman

Joc Pederson, Dustin Mays, Ross Stripling for Trevor Bauer.  Who says no?
Connor Byrne
6:27
The Dodgers.
Patrick
6:27
Who gets traded, InCartie,Culberson Camargo?
Connor Byrne
6:27
I'll say none of the above, especially with the Markakis/Swanson injuries.
Guest

Do you think the Stroman trade will be the outlier or an example of how teams value pitching this deadline?
Connor Byrne
6:28
Kind of depends how desperate teams are closer to the deadline.
Carlos Martinez
6:28
Do I get traded?
Connor Byrne
6:28
I really don't see it happening.
Jim bob
6:29
Deivi Garcia, Clint Frazier, low level minor leaguer for Mike Minor and Nomar Mazara. Both sides say yes?
Connor Byrne
6:29
The Yankees wouldn't. What would they do with Mazara? They can't even play Frazier anywhere.
Paul Goldschmidt
6:30
Any chance Rockies want to deal Charlie Blackmon?
Connor Byrne
6:31
"want to"? Probably not. They are at least open to it, supposedly, but MLBTR's Jeff Todd did a good job explaining why that's probably not happening: https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2019/07/rockies-reportedly-would-listen...
Prescott
6:32
What would a realistic cost for Giles be for the Twins? seeing that Stroman didn't return a top 100 prospect I assume its likely that Giles wouldn't either?
Connor Byrne
6:32
I wouldn't be completely sure about that. Giles has been absolutely dominant this season.

Nike is worried the mets are messing everything up. But she's hopeful the mets will trade Wheeler for Clint Frazier or just go into 2020 with a Degrom, Stroman, Thor, Wheeler, Matz rotation. Can you help me calm her down? She's very worked up, thanks!
Connor Byrne
6:34
Dogs are the greatest.  Unfortunately for Nike, the Yankees wouldn't make that deal.
Karan Ashar
6:34
Hypothetical trade. Orioles get Pujols (assume entire salary) + Jo Adell and Angels get rid of albatross contract. Would it make sense?
Connor Byrne
6:34
Not for the Angels. Pujols' contract is brutal, but they've stuck it out this long, and Adell's an elite prospect.
SadM’sFan
6:35
Should the M’s trade, Gonzalez, Haniger Or Vogelbach? What kind of return could they get?
Connor Byrne
6:36
Now isn't the time to trade Haniger with his awful injury situation. The M's seem to want to contend by 2021-22, so they could easily just keep those guys as core pieces.
Andrew R.
6:37
Should the Phillies go after Syndergaard?
Connor Byrne
6:37
It would make sense, but would they be able to put up the best offer? And would the Mets even want to trade them Thor?
traveler
6:37
who won the Osuna and Giles trade now?
Connor Byrne
6:38
Simply for off-field reasons, it's always been the Blue Jays.
Ammiel
6:38
Camargo to the Giants for one of the quality relievers makes plenty of sense right
Connor Byrne
6:39
Camargo has had a horrid year, so probably not.
The ToddFather
6:39
Any chance I get moved and if so, where to?
Connor Byrne
6:41
Todd Frazier might have a bit of value. To where? Philly? Franco hasn't been that bad lately, granted.
Mark M
6:41
I really like reds Garret if your the Astros what do you need to give up ?
Connor Byrne
6:41
Probably too much. Jon Heyman reported over the weekend the Reds are more likely to trade Iglesias than Garrett. That's how much they value Garrett.
Matt Holliday
6:42
Cards should trade Ozuna since he isn't re-signing with them...
Connor Byrne
6:43
He's hurt right now & they may think he's integral to their playoff chances anyway. Not like their other outfielders have torn it up. Bader just got sent down.
Rays
6:44
It’s hard to see the Rays going all in at the deadline after their recent slide and all the injuries right?
Connor Byrne
6:44
They're not really an "all-in" type of team.
Emit Remmus
6:44
Hedges would be a great target for the Angels. What would they need to give up in return? And do you see Hedges being moved?
