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

[MSBird]

Getting closer and closer to the deadline and no moves from Philly. So I guess they are going for it again, despite being 12.5 games back? Don't understand Amaro's logic...

Still in on Bonifacio

He's the guy I'm hoping we'll get. Miller will be too expensive for a relief pitcher while Bonifacio shouldn't cost too much and would be major upgrade at 2b.

I miss the days when teams just let pitchers pitch.

I, too, long for the days of Matt Kilroy. 583 innings, 513 strikeouts, and roughly 9500 pitches at the age of 20. And he was still fairly effective three years later.

Have you ever been to Philly? Not exactly filled with logical fans/owners/GM's.

[paulcoates]

We'll take care of that for them.

I am not sure who we are giving up for Miller or Koji, who will both log about 30 more IP this year.

He's getting fired. Does anyone need to know anything other than that? Mr. Jordan and Proefrock will soon be available. Any takers?

[oriolesacox]

What would make me happiest about Bonifacio would be the speed element... We could really use a boost in that department

[mdbdotcom]

Where are these guys all gonna play? Craig is a 1B/DH with a bad foot. Napoli is the same. Ortiz, who knows what he gives you in 2015 (unless he gets a little extra help). Interesting moves, I mean I definitely like what the Sox are doing.

Craig has played mostly RF this year. Hasn't hit well this season. Guess the Sox are counting on a rebound year.

And yet, I still like Cosart.

I am not sure who we are giving up for Miller or Koji, who will both log about 30 more IP this year.

From MLBTR:

• There is some internal resistance to moving Miller, tweets Gordon Edes of ESPNBoston.com. If that is the case, Edes wonders whether the club would instead consider dealing closer Koji Uehara.

[DrungoHazewood]

He's the guy I'm hoping we'll get. Miller will be too expensive for a relief pitcher while Bonifacio shouldn't cost too much and would be major upgrade at 2b.

How is he a major upgrade at 2b? He's been in the league for 7-8 years and has a .666 OPS. I suppose he's a mild upgrade over Schoop or Flaherty, but he can't be worth an additional win over the next two months.
