This is the absolute perfect time to move Whit. You just have to do it. If Matias, Melendez & Pratto were all raking I wouldn't be as keen to move him. But those guys are ****ing failures and our window is delayed.

All about getting the right price in return.

And while those three have been disappointing, Lee, Igliotto, and Isbel have not. Gabe Cancel is also someone worth watching (2B leading the Texas league in HR and 2B, very Jonathan Schoop-ish).

Their twitter is hilarious. They keep throwing out shit like Schwarber and Almora and Russell for him.

The only deal I’ve seen on twitter that was close was one from a SanDiego fan who proposed Luis Urias, Ryan Weathers, and Buddy Reed for him. And that was maybe a bit light.

If it was me I’d be going after the Padres pitchers...Gore, Patino & Morejon.

Gore is untouchable.

Patino as the centerpiece instead of Urias would work tho.

This franchise is still reeling from the death of Ventura.

With so many teams in contention for the wild card (and the NL central pennant), you'd think a team that sees a multi-year window opening might be willing to deal.

Dayton just jizzed in his pants, and then prayed for forgiveness.

Talk about torpedoing your trade value...

Trade value? I doubt we could get a used tire from a Yugo for him.

He should have been DFA'd months ago.

At the end of May he was on a nice
Run and looked exactly like what they hoped he would be - someone they could flip at the deadline and get something for (nothing major, but something).

His June has been awful, though. Still wouldn’t cut him because someone will probably be willing to take a chance on a lefty who throws as hard as Diekman does.

Futures game is on MLB Network.

Bubic just got brought into a tough jam in the 4th inning. Singer hasn't pitched yet.

LMAO Just as I posted that Reds prospect Taylor Trammell just tried to steal home on Bubic and failed.

(Actually he was safe but there's apparently no replay in the Futures game. Bubic gets out of the jam!)
