With Suarez and Pomeranz( and maybe even Castillo?) joining the pen, and Myers and FTJ joining the every day line up, I'm not ready to unload heaps of our top prospects for rentals, or even guys with another year of control.

Deadline deals have done NOTHING for us the past 3 years, why should we expect anything different this time around? Same evaluators, same results, right?

Let Abrams get tons of AB's down in El Paso if he's not playing in SD every day, prepare him to be part of our first 9 in 2023. Keep Hassell and Wood on the fast track to GET to SD , maybe as early as 2024. And for god sakes, when will see Campusano get a REAL shot of playing in SD???? We keep complaining about not having groomed a catcher in years but we're happy to buy high on Norris, Nola, and now people want Murphy??? Campusano has a good chance of being better than all of them! He's ours, he's under control for a long time- LET'S TAKE THE CHANCE!

This organisation just doesn't quite get it. Look at the Duds- seemingly every year they bring up an absolute stud FROM THEIR OWN SYSTEM! How is that even possible??? Well, I guess it starts by not trading your best assets for short term fixes.

At some point, by just stupid luck, we have to run into someone in our system, that can contribute on a daily basis. Abrams is the closest....Hassell probably next, keep him, then Wood, again keep him.

I've been reading your guys reports on how good our minor leaguers are- for once, I'd like to see you guys proven right.

Finish the dance with the ones you got there with.

Campusano is a 4A player, too good for AAA, not good enough for ML. He doesnt have the approach. And IMO wont succeed in the ML, trade him for something that will.

Murphy IS doing it in ML, and controlled for 3 years after this season. He is a good get.

Agree on Murphy but at what price?

Probably about what you said in the trade post.

But so was Nola....and we gave up All Star Ty France to get him.

Which future All Star goes to Oakland for another career .230 catcher?

If Campusano is 4A, why would anyone give us anything of value?

Murphy is the best Defensive C in baseball and it's most powerful slger.. he aint nowhere what Nola was..is #20 on D...

I'm fairly sure AJ is happy with Alfaro and Nola.

I really don't think he will trade for a Catcher....neither Contreras nor Murphy.

Unless BoMel really goes hard for Murphy and we can make room for him by moving Nola....it just doesn't make sense when we need outfielders and relievers.

Moved

Suarez has had his rehab moved to EP … could be returning just after the trade deadline. Will impact both the 26 and 40 man rosters since he is on the 60 day IL.

Beaty is playing again in EP in his rehab … guessing his 20 day rehab re-set to his return … so does not have to come of the 60 day IL until late Aug.

Melvin said we could see Myers back by the end of the weekend but knee may still be an issue for the rest of the season. My interpretation is Myers is DH/1B and not likely in the OF.

Has anyone seen anything about Gore's injury yet? He was supposed to see the doctor today, wasn't he?

Elbow strain no structural damage 2 weeks shut down.. likely won't pitch again this season...no surgery needed

Which means he’s still in play as a trade piece.
