Final Day Trade Rumor Countdown thread. (Deadline 4 PM)

[Ohfan67]

I'm beginning to see the A's strategy now. This is Billy Beane's push for another book. He's going to set the record for most deadline trades and write a memoir in the off season entitled, "Billy's Rage: Moneyball Turned Upside Down".

What would a Yan Gomes cost the O's?

I would think he would cost quite a bit since they just locked him up long-term. I can't imagine he would be on the market since he has been the Indians best player for the most part.

Seems nuts. There must be more in this for A's.

Nope. nothing. That's it. They targeted Fuld for what they were doing and that is what he cost.

Jemile Weeks for a good LH pitcher.

Maybe claim JJ and then ship him back to Oakland for Reddick.

Yeah, either Hundley or Clevenger was the trade that had been mentioned. Not getting a catcher. Giving one.

[Lester Freamon]

MLB Network just teased that they have news on the O's when they return from the break. Probably nothing, but who knows. Probably just what we've gotten in this thread, but we'll see.

Now you are thinking! I like the Weeks + JJ package even better.

MLB network said O's update coming next

Interesting post on ESPN thread. Backs up what Birdland said about their offense.

Lloyd

I am stunned the A's traded Cespedes. Coco Crisp has lingering neck issues and Gentry has a a broken hand and the two outfielders they picked up are medicore. Billy blew this one.

MLB network said O's update coming next

Probably that we aren't trading for a catcher.

[Redskins Rick]

Probably that we aren't trading for a catcher.

Roch made that call, this morning at 0630.

[Orioles0615]

What about Cossart, I wouldn't mind having him.

[goldenglover]

MLB network said looking for bullpen help and pitching depth..same blah
