Moving Sanchez right now kind of sucks. Lowest value at this point.

Tigers dealt their prodigious closer Shane Greene for two players Joey Wentz and Travis Demeritte, neither of whom were on any pre-2019 top 100 lists. Maybe the market for pitching prospects isn't as robust as many were expecting.

Sounds like Biagini and Sanchez both to the Stros

Yep Sanchez and Biagini to the Astros together as a package.

I wish they had held on to Sanchez. His value is lower right now, than it potentially can be. Would be interesting to see what the return is.

Derek Fisher 25 yo left fielder with good numbers in AAA. Was a first round pick in 2014, 2017 MLB Pipeline top 100 prospect. Seems like a good piece to add to the system. But I'm sure it will just be ARGGGHHH SHATKINSS UGHH

Well, if Gurriel is out for any amount of time they will be able to get plenty of MLB reps for Fisher.

Man the Jays and Astros like to trade with each other.

I have seen a lot of Fisher and like him. Super fast but with the importance of slugging in today’s game, his high end may be limited.

Scored the most exciting run in Astros history IMO to win game 5 of 2017 Worlds Series. Look at that really to see his speed.

Is there good starting pitchers coming up in the Jays system (I like the Jays but I don't follow their prospects)?

Except for Nate Pearson who played in the MLB Future's All Star game, has basically dominated at every level he has pitched at. Regularly touches 100 mph.

I'm not altogether sure Sanchez is fixable as a starting pitcher. I'm honestly more sad that Biagini is gone.

Wasn't a big fan of either Sanchez or Biagini so I'm fine with the Jays getting Fisher and having a go with him.

Cal Stevenson going with Sanchez and Biagini. He is a name that surprised me last year that I liked following in the minors, he was doing well in Dunedin this year.

Also sounds like there are more pieces coming back in the deal with the Astros.

EDIT: Nope just Fisher.

It's like Chiarelli took over the reigns for the Jay's.

So just Derek Fisher coming back for Biagini AND Sanchez??? And the Stros also get a prospect from us as well???

I can't even...That's a joke of a deal.
