Indians don’t want another outfielder who can’t hit. I feel like we did well, Over pay for Olivares hitting .176 I don’t think so. They have the offense. Correct, everyone knew Preller was on the hot seat this season. The Padres on Saturday traded the 24-year-old outfielder to the Royals, along with a player to be named, for right-handed reliever Trevor Rosenthal. is an overpay or not. Definitely agree with this, good post Steve!! Olivares was recently acquired from the San Diego Padres in the Trevor Rosenthal deal. If their location is just a tad off and theyâre not throwing strikes on the corners, watch out. Lost their last 4 games, hopefully no end in sight. We need a reliever more. Olivares was not going to help a playoff run this year, nor do I think he represented a long term option in the OF. He recorded multiple hits in four of the five Texas League Finals games, batting .500 in the series. Minus the relief pitcher injuries, they could be playing right with LA. He has recently been shaky but heâs better than what they have. Great box score watcher see a contract coming your way from every mlb, Got his pitch count to high missed 3-4 strikes on the paint, Had pitched night before matheny tried to hand game to next in line for 1 out yadier molina, He couldnt get 1 out n eventually lost the game w 3 run lead. Also, rebuilding teams are willing to pay more for these guys because they typically aren’t spending that much money on their current roster, and get a big benefit if they produce. However, there is another lefty, former 1st round draft pick, and also former Independent League pitcher that is having a resurgent season in Atlanta, Tyler Matzek…His comeback has been remarkable this year, and have to give him a ton of credit for never giving up through all his injuries and his highs and lows. that’s AVERAGE for a reliever. Balsey is working for the Padres in the minor leagues, but I am concerned about some pitchers who did better with Balsey last year.
Giants get: Waters, Touki, Something along those lines, maybe change some of the fillers, and it would work out alot more realistically…. He is just more valuable as a guy who can do anything, start, relieve or close than he is as just a starter right now. Quantrill has been more good than bad as a starter but Preller and co. have banished him to the pen because reasons. In a 60-game schedule, the Orioles and Marlins are on the periphery of the playoffs. good ole AJ.. his moves are either fantastic or pretty bad. For the last month of last year he was terrible. Edward Olivares. Plesac, most likely not going anywhere. Great trade for the Padres badly needed RP with a strong ERA. Considering that players drafted this year cannot be traded as a PTBNL anymore, there is only 1 name available that I would really regret losing. He is to old to be looked at as a building block. Helps both teams. More Edward Olivares: News, Rankings, Projections, Stats, © Copyright 2010-2020 FantasyPros.com Very few people seem to comprehend the value of a proven starter with years of control. The Dominos haven’t started to fall intill we see like a Bundy or Clevenger or even Lindor or maybe Springer go to a team like Dodgers or Braves or so on. Nice player for royals, ptbnl is just a bonus. I donât hate the idea of one for one, just canât happen because of the economics. 25 prospect Lucius Fox, a versatile and speedy infielder, from the Rays on Thursday. Big brain. Adding on, the issue isn’t about Grisham, it’s about how this Dark Side guy spent all of last offseason hooting and hollering about how Luis Urias is a AAAA player. Olivares is a right-handed bat, which General Manager Dayton Moore insists the team will need going forward. Time will tell & the Giants rebuild donât have the luxury of him turning into Duvall and not capitalizing when he has a chance to be Bautista. Also Riley has displayed a better than expected glove this year and he has light tower power. The trade deadline so far isn’t a great reflection on MLB GMs, guys like Taijuan Walker and Trevor Rosenthal who could have been had by anyone for next to nothing over the winter are fetching assets? Look what Cubs and pirates gave up for lesser talent. Can someone please update the post? He is doing what he can to win right now, and if he can do that by giving up marginal future assets, he isnt going to hesitate, Figured with how easily he breezed through the Bomba squad all year the twins would have some interest. I would guess Pom is the 9th inning guy, but earlier in the season they did randomly throw him in the 7th inning once to face a part of the lineup with a lot of lefties and then they let Quantrill close so they could let both Rosenthal and Pom close depending on matchups and what part of the lineup they are facing. He's a name to keep an eye on down the stretch. Cordero can’t move without breaking a bone, Solid pick up for the Friars. Ooops. Horrible trade for San Francisco. Perdomo and Guerra are mop up guys. His departure from San Diego made room for 22-year-old right-hander Anderson Espinoza to claim the final spot in the Padres' Top 30 Prospects list.
