    Grab Britton too. Anybody that could potentially dethrone Kenley for closer..anybody that could potentially dethrone Kershaw as ace. Keep the moves comin

    • Britton has shown some eyebrow-raising signs of late, including increasing fastball velocity and a swinging-strike rate that is up to 14.5% for the year.

    I have no idea how this is gonna work without some salaries going the other way.

    I’m sure since the Guggs are money people, they have it all figured out.

    Villar is only saying that because he knows he is coming soon to join Manny and be his batterymate at 2B.
    Puig to the Brews!

    Seager already got dethroned by Manny.
    Muncy wants to dethrone somebody, either Turner, Taylor or Bellinger.
    Bring on Britton and DeGrom!

    It's pretty cool that the Dodgers manager is managing the all star game.

    Is this the AL vs the NL? Or the world team versus the United States? Racist.

    Sometimes when I read these forums I’m glad none of us have jobs as MLB GMs and officials.

    Some things to pay attention to in MiLB in regards to a potential deal and our top prospects
    AAA:
    Verdugo: Started and playing
    Edwin Rios: Did not start, but did pinch hit

    AA:
    Smith: Starting
    Peters: Starting
    Jackson: Starting
    Robinson: Starting
    White: Starting P
    Ruiz: Not in lineup
    Diaz: Not in lineup

    HiA & LoA not playing tonight. Dustin May set to start for Rancho tomorrow. Reminder that Ruiz and and Diaz could be returning from the futures game.

    I really think this is gonna be similar to the Darvish deal: One headlining prospect and two guys we've rarely heard about, with Yusniel being the headliner.

    Only his and CKWG have an insight I’d want to listen to when it comes to the ins and outs of teams.

    Agreed, Diaz is a HUGE get for the O's on a rental. I would not be surprised if there is a 10-20 prospect in there if the O's are taking on some salary, but I have a hard time seeing two big name spects going in this deal.

    The best part of this game is done...those MoH awardees were something really special.
    Bravo for putting them all together.
    Now that was cool...
