The Trade That Broke The Pirates

Did this trade cause the temporary downfall of the Pirates? likely no. But it didn’t help it; losing top prospects that turn out to be very solid and getting almost nothing in return. Not a situation the Pirates needed, but one the Rays jumped on. Watch as Shane Covers the Midsummer Madness.

Isaac Parades was one of the prospects the Rays got for Meadows. The meadows trade alone is a finesse. The fact that it all stemmed from the Chris Archer trade is even crazier. And imagine if Glasnow was healthy in Tampa. He would probably have won at least one Cy Young shortly after Blake Snell did in Tampa.

Couldn’t remember when I made the video who the prospects were! But Paredes has been great for the Rays since gettin there. Definitely a wild sequence.

If Tampa calls you wanting to make a trade just hang up the phone. As a Tigers fan it sure would be nice to have Isaac Peredes rather than the 42 games and 0 home runs we got out of Austin Meadows.

For sure. It almost feels like right now the Rays and Tigers are just trading back and forth lol. This weeks series definitely is showing the tigers won that though
