    I love that you think "Colorado Owner" is an actual thing.

    Welcome to Texas.

    Yankees got Jazz Chisholm for 3 prospects outside their org top 20.

    I have actually been really surprised at how low the prices have been so far.

    I don’t understand this neither. Not super happy that we haven’t done a deal on those terms yet.

    Actually? I saw some say an updated list had Agustin Ramirez as a top 5. Although not sure who's list they were referring to.
    *fangraphs apparently has him at 5.

    It's OK.

    We should talk later.

    What's your favorite song of the past 12 years?

    So if the Rangers get swept by Toronto and are sitting at 51-55, you're going to tell me they will be aggressive at the deadline? Hell the Blue Jays would be only 1 1/2 games behind the Rangers and they are in full selling mode.

    I'm not quite getting that. I guess it all points back to the mediocre division.

    One of the prospects headed to Miami is catcher Agustin Ramirez, the Yankees' 20th-ranked prospect, according to De Nicola. Ramirez, however, is due for a big move when MLB Pipeline re-ranks prospects, as he has torn up the Minor Leagues this season.

    So yeah. That was their target and the biggest negotiating point.

    Yankees apparently sold on Austin Wells. Remains to be seen if he's that level of catcher at the big leagues.

    If the Orioles don't get a starting pitcher for the second straight deadline, then shame on them. They certainly aren't making it out of the AL with only 1 starter.

    Eflin was acquired the other day. Unless you meant someone better than him like another number 1 or 2 or even 3. Is Eflin considered a number 3 or 4 pitcher?

    Forgot they got Eflin. I'd label him a 3.

    I don't consider that "doing enough".

    They need to get Flaherty or Fedde, or even bigger splash in Skubal.
