It pains me to even think about it, but everyone knows the Red Sox have a need at 1B. I’m fully onboard with trading Trey to the Red Sox if it brings a return that helps the O’s get back to the playoffs. 

But emotionally I’ll be like this if such a trade happens:

Hopefully the Red Sox some day become a rival of the O's again.

Yankees just got Gallo, so Hosmer to Texas for package with Gallo coming back didn’t happen. I’d love to be in the 3 team deal to buy a good prospect. Hosmer obviously would veto a landing of Baltimore. 
 

This won’t happen though. But Gallo, Judge, and Stanton in the same lineup is crazy. 

That'll make a KKKKrazy lineup.

Looking forward to see how much they gave up.

From mlbtraderumors:  The Rangers are acquiring a group of prospects in return. Trevor Hauver, Glenn Otto, Ezequiel Duran, Everson Pereiraand Randy Vasquez all seem likely to wind up as part of the return, report Adler, Weaver and Ken Rosenthal of the Athletic (Twitter link). Jeff Passan of ESPN (Twitter link) reports that Josh Smith is also part of the return.

 

i have no idea how great of a return this is but saw something about Duran being the best and everyone else 2nd tier prospects.

Per MLB rankings:

Duran is #15

Hauvner is #23

Otto is #28

Periera is #17

Vasquez is not listed in the top 30

I'm no expert but I wouldn't feel good about that for Gallo at all.

Thanks for the post.

Now I see a JJ Cooper tweet suggesting the Yanks gave up top 10 talent and preseason rankings don't tell the whole story so maybe I misjudged.

Yeah, posted about that seconds before yours. It'll be interesting to find out more.

Fangraphs rankings in the Texas system now show Duran as their #3, Josh Smith as their #8 and Periera as their #18.  There's the 2 top 10's.

I keep waiting to see an Orioles trade...but feel like i'm going to be disappointed when one comes not that we have too much to deal. I would love to see a Mancini/Hosmer deal that basically equated to us buying extra prospects for taking on money, but would be shocked if something like that happens. 

I still expect one or two relievers to go for a return we all collectively view as "meh" and that's it. I think we will get reasonable value for whoever is dealt, but won't love any deal.

Well, we were the better team last year.

Season isn't over, but I think they'll probably finish ahead of us this year.

I would be on board with that type of trade too, but I don’t see ownership agreeing to “buy” a prospect.

Trey is an insightful guy

Even if the O's tried this they are on Hosmers no trade list

He could waive that or you could make it a 3 team deal.

I would guess facing your own mortality sort of levels one out a bit.

Not that Mancini "needed" leveling. He has always seemed as good of a guy as you'll find.
