Any interest in Schoop still?  I'm surprised its been quiet on him today.  I would feel like the whole league realizes he's healthy and an All Star again

Why Have Talks Slowed?

While it was unconfirmed who the Milwaukee Brewers were targeting in their talks with the Orioles, I think it’s safe to assume David Stearns was focused on Jonathan Schoop to fill the hole in the middle infield. With the new acquisition of Mike Moustakas, the Crew no longer needs Schoop.

I think acquiring MM and moving Shaw to 2b puts an end to any Schoop trade for the remainder of the season to the Brewers. I could see an offseason trade between the two teams. 

I read that they were actually moving MM to 2B.

A reporter for the Athletic says the Pirates need a set up man and wonders if they are substituting Givens for Brach now that he has been traded to Atlanta.

For Gausman I’d want Baz & Newman/Kremer. 

For Gausman and Givens I’d want Baz & Hayes, or Baz, Newman/Kremer & Hearn. 

Hayes, Swaggerty, Hearn would be my must haves for a Gausman, Givens trade. The other three after that are up for negotiations, plus do you have any int $ to send as well?

I just like what the Rockies could put together better. Rodgers, pint, Rolison ++. 

Do the Giants want a pitcher? Bundy would be a stud there, big park, heavy air. Would have been on track today for a no hitter if he was pitching in SF.

Rolison and Swaggerty can’t be traded yet.

Good catch.

I wonder if the Bucs would do Gausman and Givens for Keller, SS Cole Tucker, LHP Taylor Hearn, and OF Calvin Mitchell... That plus maybe one more high-ceiling young guy in Low-A ball... That sounds like an overpay to me, but then I thought we got slightly more than I expected for Britton. The trade market's hot this year.

They aren't dealing Heller. He's up and ready. Not to mention hes like a top 15 overall prospect.

All I’m saying is that if we trade Gausman and Givens, we better get a haul. There isn’t too much left behind them to trade. I’m fine with Baz as the centerpiece, but we need some of their IF’s and possibly Hearn if Givens is involved.

Even if he were available why would we want an outfielder when the Pirates have 5 infield prospects in their top 10. I think it's safe to say you could det Hayes and one of the others.

It would be a good idea to get Cruz/Tucker  and Newman. You'd have your middle infield covered for the foreseeable future. Plus you'd have a leadoff and #2 hitter that have good speed, stolen bases, and solid mid .350 OBPs

How about 3B Ke'Bryan Hayes instead of Heller? I like his ratings on MLB, which indicate stellar defense at the hot corner. 

[Camden_yardbird]

I suggested Gausman to the Pirates a while ago.  This trade makes too much sense for both sides.  

They will never give up Keller but I did suggest Baz as a headliner.  The way the Pirates operate I think it's very unlikely you get Baz and Hayes in the same deal, they are too protective of prospects.

Baz and one of Newman or Kremer maybe and Holmes?  They were looking at Kela so if you include Givens maybe you get a bit more.  Newman and Luplow were included in those talks.

The trade market is hot but the pirates are extremely protective of their prospects.
