both for depth of arsenal and fatigue from being so big

Are the Rays going to have openers and bullpen days until snell gets back?
Travis Sawchik
4:17
Maybe forever, honestly

How aggressive should the Pirates be with Newman, Hayes, and Keller now that that seem to have a clearly defined window?

The Indians could have easily acquired Pham. I don't understand what they are doing at all.
Travis Sawchik
4:18
Pham would have been a nice upgrade, for sure

Would seem to be the time to push the pieces up for PIT, even just to get their feet wet

Bryse Wilson looks like he's moving up to AAA, pretty quick rise for him this year
Kiermaier's Piercing Green Eyes

Even if Glasnow can't be a conventional starter, he can always join their legion of Yarbrough types who go a few times through the order, avoiding the dangerous parts a third time. This is an organization that rejects your labels. Except Blake Snell, he's a real starter.

He is a guy that came up in my prospect P that fits for TB 2nd thru 5th inning type (Bryse Wilson)
Travis Sawchik
4:18
True. I'm worried less about Glasnow's label and more about his ability to throw strikes, though

The Orioles 5-10 year outlook is ...

cleveland can get a heavily subsidized choo (and his 140 wRC+) anytime over the next month
Travis Sawchik
4:20
$40m needing to be subsidized, though
I do believe in the new Choo

Good luck to Tyler Glasnow trying to reinvent himself in the AL East.

Glasnow= Chatwood +10% K, -10% GB

Easy to second guess everything, but Tampa probably waited a year too long on moving Archer

Nats' deadline moves (or lack therof) make no sense to me. They dumped salary, but nowhere near enough to get under the cap. They watched the one cheap marginal improvement they could have made (Wilson Ramos) go to PHI for a price that easily could have been beaten ... WTH?
Travis Sawchik
4:24
Ramos to WSH makes a lot of sense
Or any catcher

Is the Archer deal functionally a medium risk bet by the Pirates that Swaggerty can move quickly through the system and replace what Meadows would have brought?
Travis Sawchik
4:25
Pirates have some OF depth ... and they can bring back Dickerson-Marte-Polanco next year
4:27
Alright folks, I have to go write up the Dozier trade. What a 90-minute period that was. We'll all remember where we were: in this very chatroom
Thanks for stopping by for the madness

Kiley is always leaving, I'm told
Please top back next July 31st for the next FanGraphs Trade Deadline Chat
