SPECULATOR: Trade deadline speculation roundtable, part I
Jul 12 2015
Each year around this time, the Speculator column takes a trip through the trade rumors, to get the juices flowing about what might happen in the trade market over the next three weeks. Since this year Speculator has become rotated among three writers, we decided to engage all three of us—Ray Murphy, Brent Hershey and Jock Thompson—in a little trade speculation talk in a roundtable format. We'll revisit the exercise the week of the deadline.
RAY: The trend in recent years has been to see at least one significant trade well before the actual deadline. Last year, for instance, Samardzija went to the A's on July 5th. It seems like we are overdue for the first shoe to drop. Who do you think is most likely to strike first here?
JOCK: Yeah,...
Almost!
