The #30 prospect in a bad system also seems like Diekman's approximate value.

Giambrone also seems like a decent second or third piece in a bigger deal.

If that’s the cost, would love it to be Diekman.

Well, Jesse Rogers tweeted that if there is a trade, it’s not with the Rangers.

Given that this has been out for more than an hour and nothing has leaked, this could be an out-of-nowhere big deal.

Zach Duke and Fernando Rodney would be mildly interesting relievers from the Twins.

A Blake Parker reunion wouldn’t be a bad idea, but he’d be more expensive.

The Padres pen is impressive, but most of their guys are likely too expensive. Blue Jays maybe a possible team too.

Conspiracy theorists on Twitter keep pointing out that both Almora and Happ are out of the lineup tonight, which is rare. It's all speculation based on nothing, but I guess it's worth noting.

That would give them a 2 player bench. I think they’d make some move before that or a trade that large would break by now.

Trent Giambrone, the #Cubs prospect who was pulled from his game today and reportedly seen hugging teammates in the dugout, is not the PTBNL in the Cole Hamels trade. And the #Cubs have no second deal in the works with the #Rangers. Just in case anyone was wondering ...--Crasnick

This is really out of the ordinary for trades over the last few years. I can't believe nothing has leaked yet. It's been over 3 hours since Mick Gillispie tweeted about Giambrone leaving early, and still nothing more than "it's not Texas, Miami, or Blake Parker."
