.... do get Tanner Scott too? Stowers/Norby is a lot for Rogers I think.

Wow that's crazy. Yankees give up little for Leiter Jr and meanwhile, we have the best farm system and give up that kind of return for an average starter? 

[forphase1]

While both Stowers and Norby are/were blocked,  or soon to be,  I think that's a bit pricey for Rogers.

Where are people seeing Stowers?

STOWERS AND NORBY?!?!?!

Yikes.

And that's why grow the bats and buy the arms isn't sustainable.

Because you have to give up Stowers and Norby for this.

Or if there could be a third team involved.  But normally if that's the case, we've heard by now.

Mariners are involved edit: maybe not, thought I read they were

The Marlins are reportedly closing in on a Trevor Rogers trade and multiple teams are involved, including the Mets.

Hopefully the Orioles are one of them.

Elias must have really wanted to just get rid of Stowers... I'm actually pretty stunned by this trade. Marlins got the better end of this deal, by far.

Hopefully they figure out a way to get him to his rookie year statcast page. 

I'm exaggerating a bit for fun sake but yea, this pretty much feels like the 2023 deadline again.

Elias doesn't seem to be willing to make a big bet.

How do the Yankees swing deals giving up nobody and we give up top notch guys for a bit of a bum?

Which is odd because they were reportedly looking for bullpen help.

I don't think Norby and Stowers are top notch guys.

They are guys.

Stowers was hitting .306, why wasn't Hyde playing him more?

I really don't want Trevor Rodgers. Why is he considered an upgrade over Suarez or Kremer?

He's an interesting buy-low/change-of-scenery guy. Lefty. Once looked like a TOR SP. Multiple years of control. Optionable.
