According to the Denver Post, the Rays are prepared to make an offer for reliever Brian Fuentes.The Rays have reportedly had scouts at Coors Field all weekend. Rays prospects Wade Davis (CO) and Jeremy Hellickson are mentioned in the article as possible trade bait.
The Rays have JP Howell who is a lefty specialist in the bullpen already and I think SP would be better for the Rays. The stock of Wade Davis would drop as he would have to pitch in Coors field.
The Sabathia sweepstakes is starting to pick up and the Dodgers and the Brewers have joined in the race. The Brewers have LaPorta (Kyle) and Matt Gamel to give to the Indians. The Phillies have entered the fold for CC and last night on Baseball Tonight they said the Phillies were the favorites to land him. Carlos Carrasco will only miss 1 start and there is no major damage to his shoulder. The deadline deals will affect the stock on the minor leaguers who are involved as playing time may come faster with a new ball club.
Reid Brignac (Naff) has been recalled by the Rays to fill in the Jason Bartlett who is on the 15-day DL with a sprained knee. He will be splitting time with Ben Zobrist.
