Think they could get him for JD+? With no DH and Dom/Pete on the team JD is expendable. Obviously his current health poses a problem.Quote:

Donaldson would be a cool acquisition.
I think the priority should be starting pitching and third base. Center field somewhat further behind.
Candelario and Boyd would be an interesting package deal from the Tigers. Robbie Grossman has been mentioned a lot, too.
If the reds were willing to trade Castellano, Miley, Castillo, Gray, or Suarez, I’d definitely consider that too.
I doubt the Orioles move Means or Mullins but they’d both be great option. Santander and Mancini would be good acquisitions too. I see Mancini staying out, though. Coming back from cancer and kicking *** probably has him as something of a folk hero in that clubhouse.
Maybe call the Mariners about Seager, too.
Dbacks have Ketel Marte who would be super valuable. Escobar, Peralta, and Locastro are all other interesting picks.
Giants have a lot of nice pieces but I think they’re legit and won’t sell. Having Zaidi at the helm must help.
Kyle Gibson or Mike Minor from the Rangers? Go ahead and grab Gallo or somebody while you’re at it.
Probably a lot of other guys but I wonder if there’s a trade to be made with a contender. Maybe trade a pitcher to the Astros for Aledmys Diaz, or something. I’d like to see something sooner rather than later, though.

SP is going to be a must, especially considering how often they push Carrasco's return back. You need a prayer for any relevant Syndergaard return as well. Would love to get a CFeer or a 3rd baseman but we'll see.
Two guys who I’d keep an eye on
Max Scherzer - final year of his contract, Nats are out and likely want to recoup some of that salary as well as grab a prospect for a rebuild
Mitch Haniger - he’s got another year left on his contract, I can see him being a Conforto replacement
If they trade Scherzer to the division... WowQuote:

I don’t think they care, I don’t think we have a massive rivalry with them like we do with the Phillies.Quote:

A playoff rotation of Degrom, Scherzer, Stroman, Walker with Syndergaard in the pen is terrorizing
Did...did you just put Noah Syndergaard in the pen?Quote:

I dont think Alderson has the baseball guts to make a move of that magnitude. You put Scherzer in that rotation and they are the NL favorites imo. Throw Daniel Hudson in that deal (assuming he is healthy) while you're at it.Quote:

If the Mets were willing to take on most of the deferred money, probably not.Quote:

What about Starling Marte from the Marlins ? Although when Nimmo comes back what do you do with Pillar and Nimmo ? Love Pillar . He reminds me of the old Mets like Backman and Dykstra .
yup this deadline is gonna exciting imo we can get any player at the deadline we could do some dodger **** and eat up stupid contracts like priceQuote:
