Twitter says teams are getting "aggressive" with Texas. Houston, Cincinnati in on Verlander action. Let's be sure we get Jack Leiter in any deal.

The chatter on Twitter about Verlander is raging, including hot Astros prospects pulled from starting line-ups today , could be an interesting evening

I'm excited because in my blue and orange world we're gonna make a bunch of blockbuster trades for quality yutes and then win like 85% of the games in August!

Because of Moneyball, my wife tends to think all deadline deals are for Ricardo Rincon. 　　"Mark ... Billy ... . Let's be honest. A premiere setup man is not going to get you any closer to the playoffs." 　　"Are you referring to Rincon?" I mention that there's buzz that the Mets are preparing to trade Scherzer and Verlander, and she asks if they're doing so bad. I explain that no, it's the end of July and there's no trading after July, and the teams with the best hopes trade with the teams with lesser hopes and she's all "Are you referring to Rincon?" That's what I get for mansplainin'.

Haha, actually watched that again last night, but all of it, dipped in when Billy was telling Art to sit Pena , so saw the Rincon bits , weasel sounding Steve Phillips always makes me laugh
