White Sox placed RHP Jake Peavy on the 15-day disabled list with a non-displaced fracture in his rib cage.

Peavy will be shut down for the next 4-6 weeks and could struggle to return to Chicago's starting rotation before the All-Star break. The 32-year-old right-hander has registered a solid 4.30 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 66/15 K/BB ratio in 67 innings this season. He will be missed. Jun 6 - 2:08 PM

People can bring up names all they want like Peavy, Lee, Garza, Jimenez, on and on.

Fact is that unless the O's change their stance on trading one of Gausman, Bundy or Tillman I have a hard time seeing it happen.

Assuming you take Bundy, Machado, Gausman off the table then what exactly do we have that is going to entice a team to trade one of those guys here. Schoop with a stress fracture is on the shelf not exactly the centerpiece most these teams are going to look for. If he stayed healthy and continued to hit perhaps a trade with him and another prospect or two could have worked.

I am thinking your looking at a Joe Saunders type pitcher or maybe slightly better at the trade deadline depending on things break. Peavy could be a wildcard but the White Sox would be smart to just keep him and deal him during the offseason.

Garza, Nolasco, etc. aren't worth Bundy, Gausman, or Tillman.

Nolasco is a guy I was thinking of when I said Sauders or slightly better. He is in a walk year and not even close to a TOR type guy. Decent yes but far from TOR. I could live with adding him to the rotation for a prospect

Garza is not worth a Bundy, Gausman or Tillman but I would be my house that someone will be able to top what we have to offer if you take those guys off the table. Not a big fan of Garza anyway the guy is a injury waiting to happen IMO.

The point I was making though is your not going to get a TOR or near TOR without including one of those three guys (Bundy, Gausman or Tillman) IMO. Just how I see it.

Its not the end of the world IMO would rather keep Gusman, Tillman and Bundy for now unless a deal you cant refuse comes up.

Unless the Orioles are trading for Shields or Lee, I would not put Bundy on the table. I think that adding Shields or Lee could very well win Baltimore a world series this year. The Orioles are that close. For a real shot at that championship, I'd risk a blue chip prospect like Bundy. Outside of that, he's untouchable, and Schoop is not going to garner interest in his injured state.

I think the Orioles will end up settling for that Saunders-esque guy (maybe even Saunders again), and make a push toward the playoffs, but without that true stopper, I don't see them going that far this October.

I truly believe there is about zero chance that Lee is on this team. Even if he would waive the no trade clause to Baltimore, I seriously doubt the O's are going to be willing to add a payroll number like his. Cant say I blame them. Lee is durable and still performing but you just never know with a guy who is 34 and will be 35 by seasons end when the the tank will start to dry up.

      Westburg exceeded rookie eligibility limits last year exceeding 130 at bats and more than 45 days on the active roster. On the plus side he might qualify as a super sophomore or at the very least avoid the sophomore slump.

      Westburg shouldn’t be, where are you seeing that?

      So since Westburg is apparently still ROY eligible, Cowser and Westburg may project to be the best rookie combination since Fred Lynn and Jim Rice in 1975?

      There were several and I was one them. I'm  on record as saying I was one of his biggest Apologists . You should feel good about yourself as you were able to see that Means would be imploding before our very eyes( which was an opinion or a guess, which is what I did) as far as feeling bad for me? Dont I'm plenty good enough to know I wont be able to guess right every time

      Orioles acquire Ryan O’Hearn

      Fantastic pickup by Elias and big kudos to O’Hearn for taking advantage of the resources to improve. He’s a great story.

      Given his injury history and what’s happening right now, Means may make more money as an Oriole next year than as a free agent. He may have to settle for league minimum as a FA but would do better than that in arbitration. Heck, unless he’s effective at least a little this year then the orioles might release him after the season to avoid paying more than league minimum. I hope Means recovers, very much so, but this scenario is possible imo.    ps. I guess I ignored the part where you said if Means thinks he is healthy.

      Jackson Holliday 2024

      By Billy F-Face3 · Posted

      What I'd like to see in the next game Holliday plays, is for him to keep his eyes following through on the ball when he swings. In the last game I saw, he was yanking his head off the zone when he swung and couldn't see the bat to the ball. He was missing wildly and it wasn't even competitive. So, keep your eye on the ball! Follow all the way through! If your swing is so violent that it's yanking your head off the sight of the ball, then adjust your mechanics because you can't hit what you can't see!
