Not a bad idea to buy low on him. His stock has fallen the past couple seasons. I’d assume they’d also throw in Castellanos. Fulmer would be a good addition, but I don't see why the Tigers would trade him, given he is under team control for 4 more years. I could see the Tigers offering Zimmerman with cash considerations + Castellanos For Astros top ten prospect, top twenty and top thirty. Castellanos would be the primary DH and partly play in the OF. I like Zimmermann but not enough to take on that contract.

I would think the Tigers would pay $10M a year, so the Astros would be on the hook for about $15M.

Fulmer though could get real interesting. If you look at his stats and heat zones it seems to be an easy fix to get him back to his rookie numbers.

Everything Nathan said is on MLB trade rumors. His other source is reading twitter comments from the various writers. no big revelations here just persistent reading on his part.

Lol In astros talks for Goldy, JB Bukauskas and Cionel Perez were in play. D-Backs took the surer bet and more diversified package from #STLCards instead.
This is pretty funny

Andy Martino of SNY.tv reports that the Mets' trade talks involving J.T. Realmuto, Noah Syndergaard and Corey Kluber "have lost a degree of momentum."
Martino says that the Mets are "highly motivated" to acquire J.T. Realmuto, but the Marlins' big asking price -- which may include Amed Rosario and Brandon Nimmo -- has the Mets feeling "less optimistic" something will get done. He adds that the Mets feel they need to get a "slam-dunk return" in order to consider trading Syndergaard and they "have been unable to get close to a match with Cleveland on Kluber." This could all just be posturing, of course, and Martino notes that it's possible the lost momentum is "temporary." We will surely hear plenty of rumors involving the Mets at this week's Winter Meetings
This one is definitely interesting

His other source is reading twitter comments from the various writers. no big revelations here just persistent reading on his part. Well, he's dedicated. I'll give him that. Since I don't read all of those sites, I wasn't sure where he got it. Most of those rumors those guys come up with never play out.

Question does anyone think a OFer in any trade for Syndergaard signals a trade of nimmo or Rogerios to the Marlins for J.T?
I believe that's why they are pushing Noah so hard

I believe that's why they are pushing Noah so hard The Mets are still being linked to Realmuto and some sites say the Astros are still in the picture. I just can't see Luhnow trading the Marlins what they want to get him. If they were going to keep pursuing Realmuto, why give Chirinios nearly $6 million? I had rather see them sign a FA outfielder than to make a trade to get one. If you are going to deal good prospects, it needs to be for a starting pitcher. Haven't heard anything else about us being in running to sign Harper.

Not sure what the Marlins precise trade request is from Mets for Realmuto. But heard Mets do not want to do Conforto-Nimmo combo, and they don’t want to trade Rosario at all.
I'm telling you Astros are in the lead if its Tucker

I'm telling you Astros are in the lead if its Tucker i can't believe the Marlins would do a straight up deal Tucker for Realmuto. I want to keep Tucker, but, I'd be tempted to make the deal if that's the case. Outfielders are easier to come by than top catchers .

Anybody else surprised the Mets are this motivated? Motivated is one thing, but foolish is another. That seems to be the difference between Agents and Teams. I want 30 Trillion Dollars and I could ask for it. But honestly, I'm not worth it.
It doesn't mean that's the minimum it would take to make a deal. It's an opening gambit in case there is a fool willing to go crazy.
ps I haven't heard anyone mentioning Derek Fisher lately. He's still on our roster.
