I don't think the Indians would go for a package built around Marsh. They need MLB ready OF help to win now. Marsh isn't there yet.

I think it would take Fletcher to get Clevinger or Plesac.

Look for Clevinger to go to the Yankees in a Clint Frazier package.

Yankees are banking on Cole, Paxton, Severino, Montgomery and or a re-signed Tanaka with King or Garcia to fill the rotation. Frazier is proving his value of late and should’ve been snagged by someone in need already. With Stanton and Judge fighting injuries they kinda need him right now.

Good point on Judge/Stanton but it's interesting that those guys are both out and Frazier is still not playing today.

He’s playing in game 2 today.

If this is true, seems like it could be a big splash.

Looks like Clevinger (maybe Bundy???) to the Padres could be imminent.

This is going to get interesting.

Good, I hope Lynn and Clevinger go tonight so tomorrow it's Bundy time, all day long. 

[Vlad27Trout27]

Wonder if this might increase Lynn and Bundy values. 

Padres with this move can be considered a Potential Ws candidate and may create pressure for a few other teams.

But it is interesting

There is good chance that a deal does get done by tomorrow. 

 

But man am i jealous of not having a top 5 farm system.

Well one team will get Clev and the other will get either Lynn or Bundy.

Hmmm

[Stradling]

So I’m guessing they will be moving a catcher in one of their other deals. 

[totdprods]

Think I read Bundy already had offers which gave the Angels one high-level pitching prospect. 

The odds of him being dealt are increasing I think. Prices are going up and someone will overpay.
