The Tampa Bay Rays picked up a centerfielder to fill a huge hole. We still have some needs.
We have a closer to move
Robert Suarez (SD) is available. Unfortunately, he doesn't have a T, but he does have BLF. He has 86 numbers vs LH with 26 deep and 131 numbers vs RH and 11 deep. He has a 4 hold with -3 on the steal which is huge now with all these stolen bases (especially in the playoffs)
All Draft picks are available. The #3 overall pick is available for dropping down or for a good player. The other picks are also available. We have 104, 122, 125, and 134
Other players not mentioned could be available if it makes sense
Needs: catcher and 1st base, but will listen to any positions or picks.
The Reds have made a few trades so updated rumor mill is here
We have Starting Pitching available
Joey Gallo 1st Base: He has 294 NBC PAs vs RH and 164 numbers with 5 power. Plays AV/20 defense. He is a good PT guy for a team that need some PAs. Looking for a draft pick.
Nick Senzel - 3B FT vs lefties and can help bridge the gap for a year.
Needs
draft picks
Corner Outfield: looking for a good bat vs RH
Starting Pitcher: I can trade a SP and a 1st round pick or even bigger deal could involve 2 1st round picks.
The Giants are in definite need of a Centerfielder. We could use a backup Catcher and would also look to add a few arms in the bullpen.
For trade bait, we have Josh Smith (Tex-FT). 258, 13 HR.
I'm looking to fill my CF needs and gather rookie picks to add some young talent to the organization.
Feel free to look at my roster and let me know if there are others that might catch your eye.
The Royals basically have all positions covered for this season but are looking for an upgrade at 1st base and are always looking
for outfield help.
While we don’t have a ton of depth, we would move some of our older position players in package deals and are open
to discussions. We do have extra PA’s in the middle infield and Nicky Lopez is available.
Lopez has 445 PAs, and has 171 safeties versus
RHP and 132 safeties vs. LHP. He can start at 2B or SS (had 83 games at 2B and 45 games at SS). He is AV 17 at 2B and AV 20
at SS. Speed 6, Steal 2, Jump 2, Normal clutch rating.
The Rockies have a pretty thin squad heading into the offseason. Needs are: 1) Starting Catcher, 2) 2nd base, 3) corner outfield
help, 4) draft picks.
We don’t have any real surplus but are willing to listen to offers on current roster players. Colorado does have
5 Fulltime starters and perhaps would consider moving one.
Rangers have extra picks ( 1 1st, 2 2nds ) this year and goof young bullpen to trade along with Jake Rogers an almost FT starting catcher.
What we are looking for: Upgrade at 1st base, upgrade at 2nd Base, upgrade to starting staff.
We aren't looking to add any players over 32 years old so please keep that in mind. We don't need anything we can't get out of free agency or the draft but are interested in possibly making a deal or 2.
We protected Wyatt Langford so we are full in the outfield.
We have pretty good hitting, plenty of power again, lights out relief, and OK starting pitching, but the defense borders on horrendous.
Worse than that we will have up to 7 "C" types in the starting lineup - better brush up on the "C" rules as it will be a thing this
year.
Anyways, the Crew looking for a better option at SS, at least one starting pitcher, and better left handed hitting. Age is not
a concern, one year wonders welcome.
All our picks are on the table and could move one of my catchers if the return is good enough
(this wouldn't be my first option). Can move Duvall who hits well against lefties with about 320 MLB PA's or Jake Cave who has 340
MLB PA's (gone to Korea so this would be a one year wonder swap). Both are useful to me this year so I'm not cutting them
Other than
that probably not much anyone would be interested in trading for.
After a disappointing quick exit from the playoffs, the Nationals are open to trading most everyone right now.
I'll start with the
Nats needs:
FT Starting Pitcher
Catcher with 100+ PA's
Bullpen help
Pick(s)
The following are available:
Ryan O'Hearn - FT to
play OF or 1B. He is limited to having only having 44 PA;s vs Left but foes have 494 PA's in total. Better defense in the OF. Does
have a "T"!
Paul Goldschmidt- FT 1B. The way the roster is now, there is no spot to play him except vs lefties.
Bryce Harper- FT 1B-
What's there to say about him that you don't already know.
Mickey Moniak - FT at any OF position. Limited to 44+ PA's vs lefties.
Excellent CF defense.
Victor Robles - Has 275+ PA's. Can start any OF position. Mariners recently signed him to an extension
due to his improved production since he left Washington. Might keep him as next year he will be FT. Should still be FT in CF next
year if anything to give JRod some rest in CF.
Everyone else on the roster could be had, just depends on the trade offer.
After divesting the starting pitching to address 1B, CF, and a bullpen arm in a trade with St. Louis, here is the updated Astros trade flyer:
What the Astros need:
SS vs LH.
#5 starting pitcher
Backup infielder
Backup catcher
Bullpen arms
What the Astros have:
2025 #30, #47, #60, #107 and Hou #1, #2, #3, #4, #5, 2026 picks.
What the Orioles need: Where do I start?
Starting pitching, CF (mostly vs RH) or corner OF, SS vs LH, Bullpen Arms
What the Orioles have to trade: Team lost 106 games, not much here.
Picks: 2025 Oak #1, Bal #1, #3, #4 plus all 2026 picks
C: Alex Trevino (FT vs LH)
Take a look and let me know if you can help me with any of the Orioles needs.
The Mariners needs are as follows:
1.) Draft Picks
2.) #4 starter upgrade
3.) OF upgrade - have enough to play season, but as said
before, injuries and down years have taken their toll on this upcoming season.
4.) Relief Pitchers, though this will be handled in
the draft and waiver draft if picks are not acquired
5.) Catcher, to allow Sal Perez to play some 1B.
6.) MORE DRAFT PICKS
What the M's
have to offer:
Part time starters Marco Gonzalez(11 NBC starts) & Alex Wood(14 NBC starts). Useful for non contending
type teams to fill up roster and hope for a better outcome in 2025. Late draft picks this year or next are ok.
Jon Berti 3B AV/7
99 NBC PA's only, 204 safeties vs LHP in limited action & 224 safeties vs RHP in limited action. He is coming off of an injury.
In the deal with Fairbanks that cost the M's their 1st & 2nd round picks in this draft. Another rebound candidate... Again a later
round draft pick this year or next would get it done.
Craig Kimbrel, Mariners 2011 2nd round draft pick and longest tenured player
could be had. Still has a "T & F". Most of the safeties on his card are walks & HBP. Still has 290 K's against LHB's &
199 against RHB's. Middle round pick this year should do it.
Luken Baker, 27 year old 1B who crushes LHP's, and should at least see
more time for the Cardinals. It will depend on what they do with Goldschmidt. I would take a middle/late round pick this year or next
for him.
I have picks 90, 120 & 150 and all of the 2026 picks if someone wants to get creative.
Others could be had or packaged
depending on the return. PLEASE email with any offers or ideas.
Detroit has some hitters that could be traded:
Xavier Edwards 24 year old SS - 303 PA, 224/224 safeties
Ivan Herrera 24 year old C - 259 PA, 172/202 safeties
Kyle Schwarber could be traded - FT OF, 240/166 safeties, 5 power
We need pitching (and a lot of it). Currently only have 1 good starter and 1 bad one.
Tanner Scott could be available (closer, 104/141 safeties)
Second pick in draft could be available in the right deal.
Really trying to determine if we can put enough pitching together to be competitive. If not, then will be less interested in trading draft pick/young players.
AVAILABLE TO MOVE FOR CHEAP.
RP Huascar Ynoa, right handed pitcher. Hasn’t done much since 2021 due to injury, but is only 26 yrs old !! A hard thrower, signed with MINN and now throwing hard again. Is uncarded. This is type of move that makes sense for rebuilding teams. Just need a late pick swap.
C Sam Huff, waiting to see if picked up from waivers by Tampa or not. If not claimed, he is available for pick swap. He was out of options.
While I have your attention, I will mention that if you are looking for full-time players to help stabilize a team, I may have some options for you (depending on some other things I may have an extra SP and an extra OF/2B). Like many others, we are looking for SP upgrades, left handed outfielders and bull-pen help. We would do 2 for 1 for the right offer or draft picks. If you need people at these positions, let me know.
Twins' Rumour Mill: needs- fresh off a successful - except for that very tiny last detail/bit - in 2024 find themselves in
need of SPs. After Tyler Gilbert we can cobble a #2SP and have 6 bad starts for 1/3 of a #5. Draft will not help much as we have
89, 119, and 129 (only) as picks.
Also need 1/2 a SS (even after our protection).
Draft picks are also needed and welcome
since we only have 3.
Can offer - 2026 draft picks, &/or
a backup catcher in the name of either lefties Reese
McGuire or Matt Thaiss (both are only good for 158 or 186 MLB PA's). &/or
Veteran RPs to mentor your younger guys
are available such as loogy Caleb Thielbar possibly (47 IPs), Chase Anderson (58 IPs), or extreme reverse RHP
(so basically a loogy) 29 year young Ron Marinaccio with 23 IPs. &/or
Luis Guillorme is a role player or is that
utility guy? who has good defence to go with limited mostly RH PA's (187 in total).
Also feel free to look at the team to come up with
any novel offers you can dream up.
2 holes that we have are 2nd base and solid setup or someone we can use as closer even without the rating. 2nd base is our worst bat vs RHP and would like to improve on that, though not looking for all star level.
What do we have
Undecided on territorial pick currently so that could be in play.
Pick 39,148 and most of next year
Wisely or Rodgers could be moved in a deal for a 2nd baseman to help cover at bats (Wisely can also start at ss)
Prospects in Peraza (out of options so something has to happen here) and Sabol
Could move JoJo Romero in a deal for very solid upgrade in the bullpen. He is a pure Lefty Specialist this year T rated, L symbol and -2 vs runners and 59 innings.
Can talk others of course, outside of Soto, Judge, Lowe, and Volpe.
There remain a number of usable pieces that the Cubs would like to move for picks or upgrades tied to a bulk deal. Please look at the earlier rumor mill for more detail but in summary:
Patrick Wisdom is on his way to the land of Squid Game and military coups, but you can have his mighty bat and decent glove for a cheap rental. Half a player at DH for a team that maybe has a lot of spots to fill can be had for a 2025 pick swap or a late 2026 pick.
Young Randy Vazquez can give you 30 starts this year (they may be short ones) and has a presumptive roster/rotation spot with the Padres next year. Good prospect pedigree and a fair amount of upside. Would like some solid relief innings or a mid round pick (he was pick 82 last year) in any deal to move him.
The two thumper young OFers (Canzone and Bouchard) are still available. My pitch for them was summarized in the last rumor mill. Both look to be MLB players in 2025 with Canzone the long side and Bouchard the short side of platoons on their respective teams.
We also now find ourselves with three pitchers that are decent 4th starter material. Javier Assad (FT); Chris Paddack (26 NBC starts); and Jesus Luzardo (18 NBC starts - and a surprisingly good reverse lefty card). Again, one or two of these guys could move in the right deal.
