I will save you some time. There isn't anything. It is amazing how many people continue to ask him what he knows. You will get just as accurate information if you go to 7-11 and ask the guy filling the Slurpee machine.

A trade frame work could have already been agreed to, but with no scouting, the reviews of the medicals and such takes on a whole different meaning now. Heck for all we know, COVID testing could be part of a deal at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on man, it's the trade deadline. Every trade is different. It's absolutely reasonable a trade was agreed upon a day ago and not announced. Happens all the time.

If they agreed to a Lynn trade 24 hours ago, seems pretty messed up that there were still teams connected to Lynn this morning and afternoon... you'd think the Rangers would have to stop shopping a guy they've already traded, but yet people are still talking to the Rangers about Lynn.

Lynn for Collins and Heuer along with names from Adolfo/Strivers/Thompson is a done deal is the claim.

At the very least, he jumped the gun in a very big way. But a trade done yesterday with all these guys hitting up their sources every couple of minutes. Not leaking is a longshot. Plus he said he knew of no players, then threw out a name. Edited August 31, 2020 by Dick Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fair, but "Agreed to" doesn't have to mean 100% done. There is a million things that can go wrong once a deal is agreed to. A guy can fail a physical, the Sox could have to open up their vault to the other team so that they can review footage of these guys as a condition for getting a deal done, someone's medicals could throw a red flag, or like I said in 2020, COVID testing could even be a thing. Because of all of these things, until the commissioners office gets the call, it doesn't mean it is 100% done, even if an agreement is in place at one point.
