I have a couple guys in and around the block:

RP:
Richard Rodriguez Has a good projection this year and sporting a 1.3 fWAR season this year with a 2.82 ERA
Daniel Hudson 13.22 K/9 and 1.93 BB/9 with a 2.20 ERA should play next year.
Trevor Richards Settled into a RP role this year. 12.34 K/9 and a 3.72 ERA. 28 years old.
Wander Suero 4.07 ERA projection. 29. Strong K/BB numbers historically.

INF:
Jean Segura .306 hitter at three infield positions and already up to 1.8 fWAR. Asset this year and next
David Bote Plays 6 positions and has some power. Activated recently.

Prospects, picks...open to all names/picks here.

Looking to add a starting pitcher and a right-handed set up reliever.

Rodriguez and Suero are gone. McMahon and Allen in. Still looking for deals.

Segura is also out the door.

Still have Dan Hudson and Trevor Richards for the bullpen. Hudson is having another dominant season with a 2.20 ERA, 13+ K/9 and 1.93 BB/9. Richards has bounced around both leagues this year, but has a nice 12 K/9 with a 3.43 ERA. Trevor Rosenthal could also be a gamble for a future closer.

Braxton Garrett, Joey Wentz are young lefties I'm high on. Wentz is building back from surgery. Garrett has been up and down between AAA and MLB at 23.

Nate Lowe I love, but given the depth I've acquired, I would consider moving him. He's got a great eye and not too many strikeouts considering he's a first baseman, but he has been a little sapped for power lately.

I am certainly not dying to go this direction, but I would consider moving J.D. Martinez now that I have some depth in offense. Come with a good name(s).

After a few deals, I also have quite a few strong prospects who should create interest: Duran, Jones, Mauricio, Vientos, Amaya, Whitley, Walston, Paris, Allen, McMahon, Dax Fulton, Cristian Santana, Alex Ramirez, Taylor Dollard should have something for everyone.

PM or Hangouts/Gchat (patuta03) work.

A few deals since my last post, so a bit updated:

JP Crawford for a 2.2-win projected SS who's 26 and looks like he'll match his projection at least.

Daniel Hudson/Trevor Richards are good RP for next year. Both having nice seasons.

Nate Lowe. Great projection (VG/VG power, .344 OBP in the sim), power trailing a bit in MLB. 26.

Adolis Garcia. All-Star, 28, cannon for an arm, playing CF this year. 2 wins already with 25 HR. Needs a second-half adjustment to get back into the swing of things.

Prospects. After a few deals, I also have quite a few strong prospects who should create interest: Duran, Jones, Mauricio, Vientos, Amaya, Whitley, Walston, Paris, Allen, McMahon, Dax Fulton, Cristian Santana, Alex Ramirez, Taylor Dollard should have something for everyone.

Picks. Currently sitting on two 1sts, a 2nd, and an early 3rd

Want to go crazy? Make an offer for Betts or Martinez. Who knows?

More RP!

David Robertson signed with Tampa Bay today, so he's now in play. 3.23 ERA projection over 47.3 IP with 65 K and 21 BB. 12.37 K/9 and a 139 ERA+

Corey Knebel was activated off the IL this week. He had a solid history with Milwaukee, got hurt and then signed with the Dodgers. 3.47 ERA projection over 46.2 IP with 67K and 23 BB. 12.91 K/9.

Both are really nice back end relievers for the stretch run. Open to ideas and offers.

Still have a lot of good prospects I can move, JP Crawford, and let's have fun and toss out JD Martinez. Monster bat for the middle of any lineup and he's actually played 200+ innings of + defense in LF this year, per Fangraphs. Lowe, Adolis Garcia, others also still available. Deadline is looming!
