Why does everyone else's 4.50 ERA pitcher appeal to me more than our 4.50 ERA pitchers this time of year?? Psychology is weird. Everybody else always thinks they could fix somebody elses' ptoblems. Few years ago I'd loved to have gotten Rodgers, so people think they can fix him and make him pitch like 2021.

In fairness to Rogers he has a 3.17 ERA in his last nine starts, could be nothing but could also be he's getting healthy after not being healthy since 2021. Not saying I necessarily want him on the Sox but can see why there is interest in him.

Ok, today I'm trading Pivetta for three fine prospects but also acquiring Crochet for a package that includes at least one current major leaguer, possibly a LHH RF or a SS-CF signed to a reasonable long-term deal, which would require also picking up a SS today, possibly a teammate of Crochet's.

Neely ranked as the Yankees #20 prospect on BA's list. Cowles #29 on MLB Pipeline's list, which isn't updated.

Considering I think Neely could approximate what Leiter does already idk why the Yankees bothered

I wouldn’t mind if Craig hit up the Marlins about Huascar Brazobán.

Leiter’s peripherals are great this year, but not historically this good. Hes been unlucky with his LOB% and ERA. Hes not a free agent until 2027. I like this for NY, but Neely could end up a good reliever himself.

Starting to get a bit nervous. Still 4 1/2 hours to go.

Connor Norby seems steep.

Connor Norby seems steep. Very steep. But O’s have so many dudes, it hardly affects them. If this were the Sox, likely would have been Campbell going to the Marlins.

Rogers is a JAG at this point so I’m happy to see the Orioles lose Stowers and Norby for him personally

If this is the cost of help at the trade deadline this year, I think I'm glad that the Red Sox have been playing on the margins.

I'm pretty happy even if we're done. I'd still like to see if we can get a lefty reliever, or if there is a SP that's not too expensive that's an upgrade (unrealistic, but hey, you never know i suppose), i guess if there's a bat, not really sure where they'd slot in, but i wouldn't be against it if they think there's a fit there. but yeah, overall pretty stoked about the deadline.

Dodgers, Yankees and Red Sox still being linked to Flaherty. I'd have to guess that Flaherty gets dealt so probably a waiting game at this point, not sure I want to see them win any sort of bidding war on Flaherty if that's what the Tigers are trying to do.

My only hope at this point is the Giants or White Sox get desperate in the 11th hour w/ Snell & Crochet respectively and Craig takes advantage. Otherwise, I too think they’re done.
