Trade Deadline Primer/Thread

Might as well trade Tate at this point. Just keep loading up on SP prospects that don’t have to be on the 40 man this offseason.

Will the Padres have anything left in their farm system? Now they are getting Drury from the Reds?!?

Too bad that trade wasn't made last week.

ESPN has given the Orioles "F" grades for both grades so far - for whatever that is worth.

Both trades, that should say.

Does ESPN still show MLB or baseball tonight?

Who cares. I say this as an outsider, but they killed the Mancini trade. They took a risk on an injured arm that would never have been available if he had been healthy. The other trade I'm pretty indifferent about.

They've been talking NFL and NBA pretty much all day. During one of the most exciting days of MLB. Dead network.

Nothing.

That’s typical ESPN for you, total arseholes. No one with a modicum of a brain cell would give an F for a grade of the Mancini trade, and the Lopez trade is a C- by any worst case objective measure.

They should just deal with shite sports like X games.

Seems a bit lazy to me.   Don't know how they could give the Mancini one an "F".

ESPN is a joke now. MLB Network does a decent job though since ESPN has become the hot take network and asking which NFL QB is elite.

My downvote is to ESPN, not you. If it offends you, I’ll happily undo it.
