[Brock Beauchamp]

The trade deadline is eight days away. I'm putting the over/under at remaining Taillon starts at 3.5. What do you take?

Well this one looks really rough on paper . The good news is they already clinched the series . I start watching but if Taillon gives up some dings early , i probably turned it off . Ashcraft is filthy .

Taillon has allowed 10 earned runs in 11 IP versus the Pirates this year. Ashcraft has allowed 2 earned find in 11.1 IP against the Cubs. Those 2 wins were huge. Possibly Taillon’s last start.

Today is a good day to get a pitcher and/or multiple pitchers. So were the last 200 days. But today would be nice.

Brewers have already DFA'd McCullers.

According to Craig, Harvey and Palencia are progressing well, possible rehabs beginning during Dodgers series.

Harvey is such a huge wc as well . When healthy and right he is definitely high leverage guy . It really will be interesting to see how many relievers they add at the deadline . Entirely possible that Palencia can’t do back to backs after he comes back

God if we get Harvey back for the final ~quarter of the season and the playoffs that alone would cancel out a healthy chunk of the bad injury luck from this year.
