The only way that they can get out of the carousel of bad pitching is to hold onto their high end prospects instead of constantly trading them away and 'going for it', only to fall out of the playoffs anyway.

I wouldn't mind if they were a combination of buyer and seller at this deadline. If they trade someone, bring back an alternative in another form, from a position of strength.

Pompey since being demoted to double A and since returning to triple A is hitting .397 in the last 42 games.

Wouldn't hurt calling him up and sticking him in LF.

Joba's first appearance in Buffalo 2K's in 1 IP and was throwing 95. DFA Loup and call him up.

Well, that's interesting. I'm assuming Reyes is going the other way.

Pitching? I could see this being an even bigger deal...

Not sure Rockies would want Reyes at this stage though, other than to flip him elsewhere?

Well if you can't win by scoring 6 runs a game, score 7?

Source says Troy Tulowitzki just traded to Jays.

Jose Reyes and more not yet known traded to Rockies

This has to mean Reyes is on his way out either to Rockies or to another team for pitching help.

Dammit I want details!

signed through 2020 at 15.7m per year

he's been the best offensive SS in baseball the last 3-4 years and he's solid defensively, it's a huge upgrade

More years than Reyes I thought.

Great culture move. I think that locker room was really divided last year. Russell, Donaldson and Tulo break up that pack.

Hawkins is the oldest player in the majors I believe.
