Rangers selling farm and going all in. Gonna be sweet when Astros knock them off.

The Ranger #4 and #6 prospects have been pulled or scratched from their minor league lineups. The prospect cost will be dependent on how much salary Cohen is willing to eat.

Haha, Cincinnati.  I'm sure he'll waive his no trade clause to go there.  Kate, let's pack up, we're moving to northern Kentucky.

Yeah. Them titties are driving the bus. He'll go where told.

I wonder if JV is presenting different conditions for the teams trying to trade for him:

Astros: “I’m good, maybe gimme a $50k trade bonus.”

Dodgers: “My vesting option becomes a player option.”

Cincy: “My vesting option becomes a player option and I get a $40M 4th year player option added.”

But they were dying to get to Houston?

Looked safe.

I want to see the replay again...could Yordan or Pena not gotten there?  They would have been in better position to throw.

Rangers trade 2 top 10 org prospects and get Scherzer, Astros trade a top 5 org prospect and get a bullpen arm? 
 

seems like we got the worst of those two trades.

Apples and oranges

If we gave that up for Max Scherzer I would be livid.

Maybe. Maybe the Yets just didn’t like the players the Astros were willing to give up, but still. 
 

We need a starter in the worst way.

 

ETA: need a couple middle relief guys as well, but starters are almost always more important in my mind.

If you're going by MLB pipeline they haven't updated their prospect list since the beginning of the season.

Who's supposed to be going to the Mets?  I still haven't seen anyone report any names, just speculation.

Acuna's little brother is one of them apparently. Brock Porter got pulled from his game today in the third inning.

Fair enough. The articles I read stated he was.

Lee wasn't a top 5 prospect in the organization anymore. More like bottom of the Top 20.

Even if he was, it’s an insanely ignorant way to analyze trades. The Rangers system is far superior to ours due to their many years of shittiness. Their top 10 guys carry a lot more value than ours.

That would be hilarious. Scherzer refuses to waive no trade clause, but Verlander waives his for only Houston.
