A lot of smoke around Jimenez getting traded. 1 article from Beck and 1 from some other guy on mlb.com https://www.mlb.com/tigers/news/under-the-radar-2022-trade-deadline-candidates

Had Tommy John earlier this year. Kohlhepp (elbow) is 6-to-8 weeks into his recovery from Tommy John surgery, Evan Petzold of the Detroit Free Press reports.

Kind of hoped an international draft would happen but oh well.

Another night with Grossman.

TL;DR: Daz, Carpenter, Pacheco, Perez, Crouch, Campos, Kreidler had good days

Carpenter is 3/5 with a 2B. Honestly just call him up already.

Perez and Crouch with HR's Tork 0/4. Javier Osorio with the rare line of 0/5 5K R

The great thing about these things is they are all subjective. What would be your top 5 or 10 just out of curiosity? (Not trying to be argumentative or anything just literally curious.)

No Santana seems like a miss on this. I would put Santana over Campos. Other than that it's a fine list. Keith getting lots of love out there though. He was a 149 Wrc prior to getting hurt and at 20 years old so I get it but he should be in the top 3.

Carpenter with another HR goes 1/4

Tigers signed Chi-Chi Gonzalez now as well so I'm guessing he's there for insurance as well.

Him and Conover are the only sophomores so I am guessing they should be the only real possibilities to heading back to school.

Kriedler in WM for a rehab stint

Also the last 30 games Javy has a slash line of .261/.288/.513 which puts him just over that .800 OPS mark which given how the season started isn't all that bad and during that time has a wRC+ of 122. Yes his approach can be not the best but he has been quite valuable lately.

Yeah that's not enough for Soto. Think Greene, Skubal, Jobe, Olson, Keith and we have to take Patrick Corbin off there hands and we still probably don't have enough. The closest thing we have for a bench mark here is Cabrera's trade which included 2 top 10 prospects and a bunch of others and then taking Dontrelles contract

I would say the closest we have to what brings to the table is the Kendall Graveman trade from last year in which for 1.5 seasons of Rafael Montero and .5 seasons of Kendall Graveman Seattle got Toro (FV: 45+) and Josh Smith for some reason. Graveman had a better ERA etc than our RP but was a 30 year old RHP after failing as a starter and only has .5 seasons left on his contract (sound familiar?). That being said if we got a 45+ prospect and a throw in from someone for say Fulmer and Jimenez I would be a happy camper. https://blogs.fangraphs.com/the-astros-and-mariners-made-a-weird-trade/

Just missed this year; guessing he is #31 or #32. From my understanding they are really looking forward to drafting Tony Jr 1-1 next year.

I can understand that thought process. You know he is probably good for 5IP each time he goes out and what you get back for him probably wouldn't be worth much.

Oh I am sure they will get good number of calls on Lange but with that being said I am guessing they will need to be blown away by the proposed package given Lange's service time. All that being said I am guessing 2 out of the 4 of Chafin, Jimenez, Fulmer and Soto end up getting moved and we will be disappointed with the return of the prospects on at least 1 of the 2 trades. I would also not be surprised if any of Grossman, Barnhart, Pineda are moved as well even just for lottery tickets.

Prospect rankings are just opinions and with that caveat I will say I think Santana and Perez deserve to be higher.

Twitter is not super helpful here. Drafted as a LHP but MLB lists as a OF but also no video highlights that I can find either.
