I don't understand the idea that the Tigers' return for Skubal was light. It's the best return for a rental at the trade deadline since 2016. It's still an embarrassing trade in context -- 2 1/2 games out, third-best RD in the league -- but if you just isolate the return, it's a good package.

I saw yesterday that some right-wing outlets were running stories about me, which I’m used to. But this time I’m going to say something about it, because these were framed to imply that I was aligned with their own transphobia. ⬇️

so @euqubud.baseballprospectus.com wrote up a bunch of minor transactions, as he does. He stuck it below the fold because he has no ego, but I want to highlight some sections/sentences that should make you want to read literally anything Patrick writes.

The Rockies try to get lucky, the Orioles try to get stable, and Aaron Civale tries to get outs.
