$20 Bucks says Gentry is traded in August

[ScGO's]

 

.7 WAR, 10 steals on 13 chances, our best defensive outfielder.

Would be a great asset in the National League. built for September baseball and expanded rosters where he can fill in at all 3 OF spots with above average D, he can pinch run, he can steal a bag, make that pitcher nervous late in the game cus he knows he's trying to get that extra base.

Calling it. Gentry for someone's #63 prospect.

I’ll take that bet. $20 to the charity of the winner’s choice? There are plenty more options out there for contending teams to pick up, some of whom can actually hit.

On the other hand, I also dreamt last night that the Orioles traded Trumbo for a AAA prospect. Woke up disappointed.

I thought Gentry was traded for $20. Haha. It won’t surprise me about whoever is traded on Aug. 31st. You get a 40 man roster for the rest of the year.

Nothing personal but Gentry won't get us much, if anything.

Doubt it happens, wouldn't be surprised if it did.  But I have to give props for the very bold shot call.

If he's that good, why would the once mighty O's want to get rid of him?

Twenty-dollar Bucks? Multiple Bucks? How many? $20 worth? $20 for more than one Buck Showalter Garden Gnome is a good value. Last I checked they sold above $10/ea on eBay.

I honestly can't remember the last time I saw Gentry play.  Is he still on the team?

Trade him for a low level prospect and hope you hit the lottery.  There might be a team that wants Gentry as a backup outfielder and pinch runner when the rosters expand in September.

If traded it'll be for a PTNL or cash...and that player will never be named and the cash will be just enough to pay up on that $20 bet.

[Aristotelian]

I agree. Valencia also seems like the type of guy to go after the regular trade deadline.

DL, I forget the reason.

We could always move him for international funds. Since we may have discovered what they can be used for.
