yeah I hate this moved up deadline. Doesn’t give teams a chance to decide. I know we are 100 games into the season but all trades are lopsided to the sellers at the deadline. 90% of NL teams are within 5 games of a WC. Doesn’t make for many sellers. Drives the price up. And the waiver wire trades are out now.
I’d rather see more wheeling and dealing for the stretch run. I don’t get why MLB purposely made that less likely. How did that make the game better?
