MLB Trade Deadline

Post by Cardinals »

One of the busier ones I can remember. Surprised that the Pirates made the moves that they did, but kudos to them for getting players with control while going for it at the same time.

Bummed the Cardinals dumped Pham but he brought it on himself. He was apparently a malcontent and he's sucked since the end of April. Confusing to deal him and not ship out Norris and Jose Martinez, though.

As a Twins fan, this deadline season has been a weird combination of sadness and excitement. Eduardo Escobar has developed into one of my favorite players of all time, and we all waited for Dozier to be a part of the next wave of winning Twins teams. All that being said, it was refreshing to see a Twins front office make the moves necessary to look to the future. Not sure why we traded for three 1B prospects, but it was fun anyway.

It was a bit weird seeing Dozier in a Dodgers jersey.

Well this was the guy they wanted anyway, just took them a year to get to this point.
