Skenes as advertised so far. Yordan popping up the first thing he saw in the 1st was the key moment to this point.

Hope the rest of the pen can follow Scott's lead.

are the Astros the only team to deal away a top 3 prospect?
Our number 2 prospect doesn't crack the top 10 in most other team farm systems

So there's gotta be more here right and the Bloss part was released early due to his start?

I can imagine the very level-headed people on this thread tonight would be quite pleased if we rolled through the trade deadline with Brown, a fading Blanco, and two rookies with ERAs over 5 along with a bunch of hopes and dreams about JV, Garcia, and LMJ.


Not happy about doing nothing, but if we had known the cost otherwise we'd probably be happier than the alternative

My guess is that we could have gotten Snell but Crane's wallet it pride got on the way

I've yet to see the guy make one sharp/baseball savvy move we routinely saw from previous GMs.


You mean liking signing Tayler Scott?

This feels like a move to satisfy the masses saying "do something" .... I want a GM willing to hear the nonsensical bashing of him when there truly is nothing to do with what we've got

One thing...It's been a couple hours since this broke and we've yet to see who else is involved in this trade.

Kinda odd really.

Could be teams sorting through minor leaguers, or a medical issue? There was a leak since neither team confirmed the trade yet.

I don't think we would've heard anything if Bloss wasn't starting tonight.

That was the link in the armor.

Maybe throwing extra $$ too?

This trade is just insanity
