More likely to come, too ...
On edit: Kris Bryant to the Giants.

(34,773 posts)Wow.
Will Baez play second base for the Mets, I wonder?
I see Kris Bryant is going to the Giants.

(31,803 posts)They have a history together. Lindor is reportedly ecstatic.
Waiting to hear who the Giants traded for Bryant. Could be top prospect Joey Bart plus ...? Giants needed another right-handed bat in the outfield (who isn't struggling).
Pablo to the Tribe? I'll say this: Sandoval is renown for bringing cohesiveness, fun and energy to the clubhouse. Teammates love him. Might be worthwhile keeping him around if only for that.
On edit: Cubs receive OF Alexander Canario (No. 9 SF prospect per @MLBPipeline and RHP Caleb Killian (No. 30)

(31,803 posts)aside from the bad execution (chiseled script should not be in script), it's hard to read. That broke the number one rule.
The number two rule is that it's ugly.

ONE thing remaining on Pablo Sandoval's bucket list: To play Catcher in MLB (Not many people know he started as a catcher).
He's played every other infield position, including pitcher. Perhaps the Indians will make it happen.

(20,377 posts)They kept Trevor Story and will only get one compensatory draft pick when he leaves under free agency after this year. They could have gotten several established prospects in a trade. Rox sux.
Brother Buzz
(37,826 posts)That is, if you don't count the two straight loses to the Rockies.
Oh, and Fernando Tatis Jr. reinjured his shoulder (potentialy a season ender) after trades ended.
My Magic 8-Ball is rethinking it's prediction, "Would have, could have, should have been".
El Supremo
(20,377 posts)Bulked up on steroids. I hope they can beat LA and Frisco for the West.
Brother Buzz
(37,826 posts)That is, if the Diamondbacks don't totally demoralized them first

(37,826 posts)It should prove to be a good game.
Scherzer has had a grand time all week with the Dodgers bullpen, swapping war stories. I believe he's jazzed to be with the Dodgers and likes his improved odds of tagging another World Series.
