Seems like he’d be available for the right guy (I can’t imagine crochet is that guy). I imagine westbhrg looking like a DUDE has made them think Holliday could be dealable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy U Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 I imagine they could/would trade Holliday in the right deal, but it’s not gonna be for a year and a half of Tucker. First of all, the Astros are surging. Why would they trade one of their two best players to a league rival? Second, right field is not exactly a problem in Baltimore. Santander hasn’t hit that great for average, but there’s been huge impact. Kjerstad is off to a nice start since his return and Cowser is really more of a corner guy than a centerfielder. A stud pitcher, a true centerfielder, plus some upside arms, maybe you’re talking. But this article is a pipe dream. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Crochet to Baltimore in a Holliday deal. Robert to Phillies for Painter, Abel and Griff McGary Fedde to Red Sox for Marcelo Mayer. Then, in 2032, we get ready to trade Schultz for the #1 prospect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would really like Seattle and Baltimore to work out for Robert and Crochet respectively. Their position player pools are so deep. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buehrle>Wood Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Crochet is the best pitcher in MLB this year. You need truly elite prospects if you're trading him. Discussions with Orioles should begin and probably end with Holliday. Simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Demon Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 (edited) One thing that has been true for Elias is that he and his team do not leak any moves or negotiations. People can quote him on certain things, but he only says things very general terms. They are usually not meaningful. He only says with any certainty when things actually happen.
