East Notes: Nationals, Wilson, Tulowitzki, Straily

By charliewilmoth | July 29, 2017 at 10:21am CDT

The Nationals are keenly interested in Tigers lefty Justin Wilson, FOX Sports’ Ken Rosenthal tweets. The rumors surrounding Wilson have been hot and heavy, with 11 teams connected to him yesterday alone, and Rosenthal notes that no team is close to completing a deal for Wilson and that there are around eight clubs still involved in the bidding. In Washington, Wilson would join an already lefty-heavy bullpen that currently features Enny Romero, Oliver Perez, Matt Grace, Sammy Solis and the newly acquired Sean Doolittle. Of course, he would be used in a late-inning role where handedness isn’t crucial. Wilson has a 2.75 ERA, 12.6 K/9 and 3.7 BB/9 in 39 1/3 innings so far this season. Here are more quick notes from the NL.

  • The Blue Jays have placed shortstop Troy Tulowitzki on the 10-day disabled list and recalled the newly acquired Rob Refsnyder, Sportsnet’s Shi Davidi tweets. The oft-injured Tulowitzki suffered an ankle injury yesterday and will have an MRI. With Tulowitzki on the shelf, some combination of Ryan Goins and Darwin Barney will likely handle shortstop duty, with Refsnyder perhaps playing a bit of second base. Tulowitzki is batting .249/.300/.378 in 260 plate appearances this season.
  • The Brewers, Royals, Rockies and Yankees all have interest in Marlins starter Dan Straily, Clark Spencer of the Miami Herald writes (Twitter links). Yesterday, a report indicated that the Marlins had “taken [Straily] off the market,” although, as MLBTR’s Steve Adams noted, it would have been surprising if Straily truly were completely unavailable when the Marlins were reportedly recently initiating contact with other teams about him. At last check, the Marlins were hoping to land a terrific trade package for Straily, who’s in his second straight year as a productive starter, with a 3.84 ERA, 8.2 K/9 and 2.5 BB/9 over 117 1/3 innings. He also has three years of control remaining after this one, potentially making him an interesting addition for a team like the Brewers or Yankees that has an eye on the future as well as the present.

    Fristly,

    AA needs to channel his DD here.
    Wait until 5 minute before the deadline and get the best possible deal. A top 100 is a MUST HAVE. See if there can be 2-3 others in the deal.

      He certainly shouldn’t wait until 5 minutes before the deadline, as the Reds showed last year when they failed to report their Cozart trade with the Mariners until a few minutes after the deadline. There can always be holdups in the trade process, so while Avila should maybe wait until the DAY of the deadline, it would be much safer to make it early in the day.

    Straily might not be the splashiest get for the Yanks,but could be had fairly cheap compared to others.

      Groan, 70 mill still owed to Tulo. He can bounce back though. A position change may help, although he probably won’t like the idea. I see him at 3rd base once Donaldson is gone after next year, yah, it’ll happen.

        And a position change will help his mediocre numbers at the plate?

    As a Nats fan….you can never have too many lefties in the bullpen. They’ll be playing the Central winner in the playoffs (barring a complete collapse from the Dodgers) and likely the Cubs as the winner and look at those lefties: Hayword, Rizzo, Schwarber. The more lefties the better they can have, plus Wilson can close!

    Think Straily makes most sense for Milwaukee
    A 2018 rotation of Nelson Davies Straily Anderson and Garza is quietly very solid. Especially considering Garza is the most expensive one at $5,000,000 (assuming the option isn’t dropped to $1m).

      I sure hope they dont pick up Garza. You’re forgetting Junior Guerra and hopefully one of Hader/Woodruff/Ortiz.
