- MLB Trade Rumors’s latest on Sonny Gray...
- The Rockies made a deal last night.
- The Nationals are reportedly not in on Sonny...
Correction: #Nationals NOT pursuing a starter at level of Gray or Darvish, sources say. Might pursue another reliever, waiting on Kelley.

I misinterpreted information that I received last night and that is why I reported Nationals were on Gray. Apologize for mistaken report.

ICYMI:
- AN and Lookout Landing collaborated on a mock trade negotiation. Do the Mariners have enough to acquire Sonny?
- The bullpen blows it; A’s lose 3-2.
- A fun piece from ESPN on how a baseball fan from 1987 dropped into 2017 would see today’s game...
Best of Twitter:
- The Nationals reportedly only expect Strasburg to miss one start. If this changes, perhaps they come back in on Sonny...if they were ever in on Sonny.
Nationals place RHP Stephen Strasburg on 10-day DL (retroactive to July 24) with right elbow nerve impingement. https://t.co/zwW4viAbWN

- Adrian Beltre was told to stand in the on-deck circle. He got creative...and tossed.

- Looks like the most we can hope for is a subtle overpay...
#Astros GM Jeff Luhnow: Team "is not going to overpay dramatically'' for pitching. https://t.co/Ca0tAHg079

- Yu Darvish did not help his trade value last night...
Yu Darvish allowed as many runs tonight in 3.2 innings as Chris Sale has allowed in his last 59
