That’s a good return for Toronto unfortunately.

The White Sox originally wanted to trade a year and half of Erick Fedde - one the best starters on the trade market - for… one and a half years of a currently rehabbing Tommy Edman? Um, what

Rays get Michael Flynn, 27 year old the Dodgers signed as a minor league free agent this offseason who is striking out some guys in their AAA pen but has a 5 ERA. Oookay.

The timing of the meltdown from the Sox pen and the injuries there really hurt Breslow. If Slaten was healthy and/or Martin, it would have been very unpopular but I bet Breslow would have unloaded K. Jansen most likely back to the Dodgers. Big time sellers market right now pitching and I bet he would have been able to pry away a good starting pitching prospect from the Dodgers or two above average ones.
For whatever reason, Kenley has always seemed like a weird fit here. I bet he would not be adverse to being moved in the right scenario.

Trading Jansen in any scenario would be wildly unpopular in the clubhouse, but especially so if they were two games behind the Yankees.

Blue Jays made a great trade, and I hate that

Pretty sure the only main starting pitcher rentals left are Jack Flaherty and Blake Snell (which as touched on before, kinda a unique situation), but I might be missing somebody. All the other common names you hear - Crochet, Taillon, Tyler Anderson - have multiple years of team control and don’t HAVE to be moved.

The asking prices since the extra two playoff spots were added, man… If the 2018 season was this year, imagine getting Eovaldi and Steve Pearce for just Beeks & Espinal in this environment. You’d have to have thrown in several other pieces in 2024 trade prices, right?

Reds get Joey Wiemer for Montas. Wiemer graduated last year as a borderline top 100 guy, had a 1 WAR rookie year and has been awful this year. Montas is making a lot and not having a very good year

Crazy high prices right now for trades.

Between this and the Yankees probably getting Flaherty what exactly are the Sox doing? I understand Jansen, I think. Paxton was a move around the edges and Priester is for the future. Not exactly making impact moves for 24. They need a lot of help and while I get not exceeding the tax I feel this approach is halfhearted. Maybe I’ll be wrong and they’ll announce a big move. It's not like there's a trade limit. These moves help the team now and/or going forward; that's all that matters. They in no way impact the club's ability to make other moves.
