Nearly to the trading deadline, the Pirates made some moves and got swept out of New York(N) too!

I made the call to the Detroit GM Al Avila about SP Spencer Trumbull. According to reports Detroit is reportedly underwater by $3.5M. I figured that could be my leverage in trade talks.

He was not interested in anybody but 1B Bell and P Taillon AFTER I ponied up the $3.5M!!! lol... I thanked him for taking my call and hung up.

At this point I think I had just better let the season play out and promote who I think needs the seasoning at MLB level for next year.
