They were bringing up Wheeler and Harvey as part of a Greinke deal.

The reader may very well be totally and irretrievably drunk at the moment, but it’s not for that reason that he’s seeing Trevor Plouffe‘s name near the top of the preceding [leaderboard]. As of Tuesday night, at least, Plouffe had hit the most home runs (nine) among major leaguers in June.

"The Texas Rangers won't move prospect Jurickson Profar and will try everything in their power to exclude Martin Perez and Mike Olt from any deal. However, with a deep major league club and farm system, the Rangers have enough to make the Milwaukee Brewers an offer they can't refuse and allow them to place Greinke at the top of their rotation."
"The Brewers are probably closer than anybody realizes, six games out of first place after their most recent slugfest with Miami. With Shaun Marcum and Jonathan Lucroy due back from the disabled list, Milwaukee will wait a while longer before becoming full-fledged sellers. But if the Brewers slide, then yes, they'll talk about Greinke and Marcum and others - but not Corey Hart."
"Rival executives believe Houston is so early in its rebuilding that any proposal would be considered - but that the cost of doing business with the Astros will be exorbitant. Jed Lowrie is having an excellent year, in his first season with Houston, and if you want to pry him away, GMs think it would be very pricey."
"The Padres lack power, and general manager Josh Byrnes did a great job in acquiring Quentin from the White Sox for two fringe pitching prospects. Quentin is still just 29 and has adjusted well to National League pitching. But the Padres don't necessarily want to move him with their offense struggling, so a team will have to overpay with prospects to get him. And with very few sellers in this market, that outcome is likely. The Marlins seem like the most likely destination with the Dodgers and Reds also as possible suitors."
"The Phillies wouldn't be doing their work properly if they didn't explore all options. But unless somebody calls up with a monster offer for Hamels -- which rival evaluators do not believe would happen until some day closer to the July 31 deadline -- the Phillies will continue to play out their season and hope that they slowly climb back into the race, with Chase Utley back in the lineup and Ryan Howard on the way. They haven't made any progress in the Hamels negotiations, and unless that changes and they make significant advancement in the NL East, it makes sense for the Phillies to weigh the best offers for the left-hander."
It was the hot weather, the ball does carry out to right the most though in our park but I've never seen it carry like that.Originally Posted by RaWeX05
^ Does the ball always fly out of there like that? Or is it because of the hot weather. Reminds me of Coors field. Nationals were hitting opposite-field bombs like it was nothing.
"Since 1950, there have been 1,532 teams. Among those teams, the Twins' starters, with an ERA+ of 66.3 -- serve as the caboose, bringing up the rear at 1,532nd (see chart). At this point in the season, it's not even close. The second-worst team -- the 2003 Reds -- had a 71.5 rotation ERA+. Minnesota is not alone among current squads near the bottom, as Colorado ranks 1,527th with a 73.7 ERA+, albeit practically a Strasburg-esque performance compared to what we've seen in the Twin Cities." - Dan Szymborski

"Centerfield for me. Arm will never be great, but he's got everything else. I wouldn't rule out 2B, though."

@jonmorosi Zack Greinke ejected in first inning? He had better apologize to the scouts who flew to see him.
