MLB Network Updates

The first guest today on the MLB Network Trade Deadline Special was Jordan Bastian of MLB.com.
  • Bastian, a Blue Jays writer, says that the closer we get to the deadline, the less likely it is that Roy Halladay will be moved.
  • Once the Phillies traded for Lee, Jordan thought the chances of Halladay being moved were much less likely, because the Phillies were the best fit.
  • The Blue Jays are looking for major league ready pitching, and a short stop prospect in return for Roy.
  • The Rangers were in the mix earlier today, and they are the most likely to get Halladay if he is traded. However, the Red Sox, Yankees, and Dodgers are still there.

Tom Verducci doesn't think the Blue Jays will end up trading Halladay.

More Updates:

  • The M's are still not sure if they will trade Jarrod Washburn.
  • The Rangers bid for Halladay is over according to Paul Morosi and Rosenthal.
  • The Brewers made an offer for Brian Bannister of the Royals yesterday, but the Royals are not motivated to move him.
