You could also put Chan Ho Park on that list as available arms. He is not meant for the AL East, perhaps the AL in general. He is of no use to the Yankee’s any longer and they can bring up some one from the minors. I’d be willing to ship him off for an average b- prospect.

I doubt Park would fetch a B prospect and in my mind is a DFA candidate.

The ChiSox should bring Carrasco back to fortify the pen. He should be cheap to acquire, and he would ease the workload of Linebrink, Putz and Pena as the season continues.

I would’t call Soria potentially available. It would take something like Joe Mauer to blow KC away. This obviously isn’t going to happen.
Guest
alright buddy, take it easy
start_wearing_purple
A little overboard there…
But yeah, he’s probably cost a couple of top prospects. In other words a price tage no GM will want to pay for.
roykirk1
NO way. I’d definitely keep Soria over Mauer! Especially if I was KC. They can’t afford a $100M catcher.

I’m not understanding the intro paragraph here, how are the Braves looking for bullpen help or any type of pitching for that matter?

With Matt Daley and Taylor Bucholtz progressing health wise, I think you may see the Rockies put some flexibility in moving either Betancourt or Corpas. Definately can consider Morales as tradebait as well.

I’m just confused as to why Soria keeps popping up on this site and, as far as I have seen, this site only in rumors for relievers. As far as I know, the Royals haven’t made him available, and no rumors have even stated teams are asking about him. Maybe I just missed something.
Guest
well, I am just going on a limb here, considering the Royals do their perpetual l suck job and if another team says hey “you guys suck again” but we are willing to give you a couple highly touted A prospects, would you be interested. Can’t see how MLBTR is in the wrong for assuming this. What’s the point of holding onto a championship caliber closer, without the championship.
Koby2
If you hadn’t noticed, the Royals are over .500 since they fired Trey Hillman. Are they in fourth place? Yes. Is there still a lot of work to be done? Yes. But it’s not like they’re pulling the crap they did 3-6 years ago with losing 100+ games a season.
Guest
true, they’ll only lose 90 games this year
Koby2
But have a farm system that will begin to churn out players in a year or two that could very well make the team very competent, perhaps even good. Why give up your closer who is so dominant but not absolutely necessary for this team this season but could be needed for a competitive team in a season or two, when he is signed to such a great contract?
Braves2014Champs
Okay let me rephrase : I would find it surrprising if the Braves needed any type of pitching help, especially bullpen help
Guest
Yeah we know, the Braves rock and it wouldn’t make sense for Wren to look at all options to improve the team, even if it is a marginal improvement.

I would actually like to see the reds go after dotel or kerry wood. Put them in the 8th inning spot where nick”i lost my control” Masset they would be kinda cheap more so Kerry Wood. I think i would kinda rather have him because he has a solid k/bb ratio and he wouldnt be that bad in the 8th inning role and the indians would eat alot of the salary to trade him so it could cost the reds a warm minor league body.

I wonder if the Dodgers would trade Jonathan Garcia, Brian Cavazos-Galvez, Kyle Smit, to the Indians for Kerry Wood and the Indians pay the rest of Wood’s contract.

The Reds NEED to get a backup closer and,maybe,another setup guy.But,a secondary closer(whether in or out of the organization),I would think,is a necessity.ANY ideas from the pros here?
