I still believe Miller stays to see if they can contend for the second spot in the wild card

Melancon?
Jeff Todd
Yeah I forgot to plug him in. Fixed.

Nice article guys but there is one correction needed to be made. Tyler Clippard is pitching for the D backs not the A’s
Jeff Todd
Whoa! Not sure how that crept in there.
Justin T. Poindexter
I’m sure the Yankees don’t want to deal Betances, but I’m sure there has to have been some interest in him.
Jeff Todd
Have heard nothing at all to suggest he’s in play. I’m sure there’s interest, but given the ask on Miller, it’s hard to imagine what the price tag would be.

It’s piss poor writing to not mention Melancon in the same group as Miller and Davis. I mean what does the guy have to do?
TJECK109
I mean 114 saves which is the most in baseball since the start of the 2014. Has to be the least respected and appreciated closer in baseball
Jeff Todd
Huh? He’s in a completely different asset class. Rental player on a contending team.
TJECK109
That’s not how it reads at all. If that’s how it’s supposed to read it needs written again. All of the arms are grouped together. They are not grouped together by contract.
Jeff Todd
I’m really not sure what you are talking about, honestly. I grouped Miller and Davis because they are both top-end closers who have high asking prices and don’t need to be traded b/c they have future control.
As I explained, Melancon is a totally different situation b/c of what the Pirates would be looking to do if they traded him.

The writing isn’t ‘piss poor’ just because you disagree. You can get your point across without insulting the writer’s work.

Trout/Simmons for Bogaerts, JBJ, and Benintendi. Who says no?
jrwhite21
Both say no, lol.
Sam.rhodes16
Trout/Simmons would require Betts Moncada Benni Kopech Groome Bogaerts ERod and filler pieces imo. It would be a dumb trade for the Sox obviously.
BadCo
You left out the kitchen sink!

Where’s X. Cedeno for the Rays? A controllable lefty. I could see the Indians interested in a Pearce/Cedeno/Boxberger package. I don’t see the Indians going for a trade with just Pearce, a rental by himself.
Jeff Todd
Yeah I should’ve included him. Will add.

Is there any chance of the cardinals getting one of these relievers?
