Unless it was your career on the line.

If the player doesn't look out for the best interest of his career who will? The team?

These guys have such a limited window to make life changing/generational altering money.

The market will sort it all out, for sure.

Not saying they can't DO it... but the action isn't without consequence.

Fedde to St. Louis.

This deadline is certainly making for some interesting trading scenarios.  There is no such thing as a crazy proposal nowadays.  

Elias doesn’t leak anything so we’re likely to see the Orioles make a trade that no one thought of as a possibility.

There was some talk about the White Sox really wanting Jordan Walker in any deal with the Cardinals. We'll see I suppose.

He's the guy I was thinking we'd get.  Hopefully, we have our aim a little higher...though I like what Fedde is doing this season.

Seems a little young for the Cardinals

Elias doesn't leak anything.  So it's always the guys we aren't tied to at all.  So that would be Anderson, Kikucki, and Fedde as the obvious choices.  Maybe a not so obvious choice would be Bassitt or a contender-contender bat for pitcher trade.  

If we're playing this game, I like Anderson. Trade history with LAA, lefty which we could use, under control for next year which is important. And of course very nice numbers.

How many innings did Grayson throw last season compared to Crochet or Crochet's career high? ... The two are not the same.

If not Grayson, how will we react when Bradish comes back and makes public load management demands? Felix? They should trust the team to work with them. If they are interested in trading upside for guaranteed money, they can sign team friendly deals. Seems like a prima donna move to make it a public demand. Anyway, right or wrong, that is a dealbreaker for me, I am not signing a guy for a playoff run that is at risk of boycotting the playoffs.
