Makes sense with Lance Lynn expected to miss two months.

Some of these names could be moved in next couple of days, anyone who's an OF or RP probably could be on the Angels radar. 

Would you entertain flipping Barria for an out-of-options OF to add to the mix? Oscar Mercado? Brett Phillps? Nick Gordon? Micker Adolfo?

Out of all their top prospects, I think Julio is the one who is going to be an absolute star. 

 

Dipoto gets Rodriguez for the Mariners and Baldoquin for the Angels.  Pretty much sums up the difference on how he impacted each franchise.

Meadows has concerns, but kind wish the Angels had gotten him if the cost was Paredes and a Company B pick.

I guess that's better than testing positive for Baldoquin.

This is the sort of trade that makes the Rats so good.. 

Meadows has done worse the more the league has seen him, not a bad player he just may never take it to the next level..  Meanwhile Parades has 25 HR potential, is a walk machine, and can pick it.  If the Rays drafted half as well as they trade, they'd be unstoppable..

The difference is he let the Mariners excellent international dept do their thing instead of scouting the player himself.

Carlos Beltran makes big admission about Astros' cheating scandal

Nearly five years after spearheading one of Major League Baseball’s dirtiest scandals, former Astro Carlos Beltrán has come clean. A remorseful Beltrán, part of the 2017 Houston World Series champions, now admits that the Astros "crossed the line" with their sign-stealing tactics.

"Looking back now, yes, we did cross the line," Beltrán said via an interview with Michael Kay and YES Network set to air later today.
