The way Berrios gets hammered around here like he sucks, maybe the Angels should jump in and land Pearson for Cobb.

It’s 1.3 years of Berrios for a guy that was the 10th best prospect in baseball 8 weeks ago.  It’s simply a shitty use of resources.  Kind of like trading 5 years of Luzardo for 2 months of Marte.

Would wonder what the Padres are up to then. They still need a starter and if Berrios goes to Jays and Gray apparently isn't being traded then I'm curious as to where they look. 

Panic mode and over pay for Cobb?

If Minasian was going to buy, it appears many of those bullpen targets have left the board. And if he was going to sell, it appears he may be a little late to the game here.

Much of the “anxiety” over this trade deadline is we really want to see some transactions to have a better feel for if Minasian is a genius or a dope, whether he is the boss or a sheep.

Just give us some transactions so we can get a glimpse into the answers to those questions!!

2 years $62 million.

Kershaw money!  That Bauer situation is a potential nightmare.  Barring a MLB suspension they are on the hook for that $$$, they may need to replace his starts, and Kershaw is a FA.

Norris sporting a 5.89ERA this season. Perfect fit for the Angels.

And again he’s not the 10th best prospect anymore.

He has had shoulder and groin issues just this year. He’s got a lengthy injury history prior to this year.

Can't tell if you're joking?  If not, what's your thought process behind why they'd want him?

Maybe I am just not seeing him but what happened to Peter Gammons?  Where is he?  Is he playing shuffleboard in Florida or something?

He's been semi retired since having a stroke or something.

I know.  I was being sarcastic.
