MLB Trade Deadline 2018: the live classifications for all the major trades | Bleacher's report

The Chicago Cubs Get: LHP Cole Hamels and Money

Get a Four-Star All-Star and the MVP 2008 World Series is a devil of a way to solve a problem of back rotation. Granted, Hamels has mostly watched its first past two years. But between his increasing speed and his low contact rate, there is hope that he will be rejuvenated in the National League. The Cubs did not give up any consequences to obtain it

Level: B +

Texas Rangers Collects: RHP Eddie Butler and RHP Rollie Lacy

Taking a shot at Butler, a former hope, did not pay the dividends for the Cubs. It will probably not be for the Rangers either. And while Lacy has made waves in the miners this year, he is already 23 years old. So this sounds like a bit more than a pay dump for Texas

Level: A

Minnesota Twins Collects: RHP Jhoan Duran and OFs Gabriel Maciel and Ernie From La Trinidad [19659003] This was a strange trade for the Twins, since three guys who are all in minor miners are not going to help them bounce back in 2019. Still, there are some benefits . Duran has a good arm and a draftable frame of 6 "5", and Maciel can run and hit (but not for power).

Level: B-

Philadelphia Phillies Get: 2B / SS Asdrubal Cabrera

The Phillies will not get a good Cabrera defense at the shortstop, but they will accept it if it hits: the .817 OPS that he had for the Mets is way better than the … 613 OPS The Phillies are out of their shorts until now and it costs Philadelphia only a lost prospect to rent Cabrera

Level: B

New York Get Mets: RHP Franklyn Kilome

Unlike what the Mets got for Familia, Kilome is a Legitimate hope, although he does not feature in his 7.8 strikeouts on mined innings by miners, he has a big arm attached to his 6 "6" frame. The Mets will celebrate this trade for years if they can unleash the potential of Kilome and use it to beat a rival of the National League of the East

Grade: B +

Houston Astros Get: RHP Ryan Pressly

After missing Britton, this was a case where the Astros were leaving the table for an end-of-game reliever. Pressly does not have much face value, but he had a 3.40 ERA and 13.0 strikeouts by nine innings in Minnesota. It can become even better if the Astros maximize his talent for rotation and not only in 2018. He is there until 2019.

Level: A

Minnesota Twins Get: RHP Jorge Alcala and OF Gilberto Celestino

Although Alcala and Celestino are not by themselves a leading title, they together constitute a solid comeback for a year and a half of Pressly. Alcala has a hard fast ball to guide her way. Celestino does not have much power, but he can hit, run and field

Level: B

Brewers of Milwaukee Get: 3B Mike Moustakas

Moustakas been just OK Since a good start, he still had a .778 OPS and 20 circuits at the time of this trade. After touching 38 homers in 2017, the real problem is that he'll be hitting Travis Shaw from third base to second base. This is a downgrade in the void, and Shaw's lack of experience at second base could further harm the Brewers.

Level: C +

Kansas City Royals Obtain: OF Brett Phillips and RHP Jorge Lopez

Rather than pick them up The best hopes in the Milwaukee system, Kansas City opted for two "plug-and-play" perspectives. Phillips is more glove than bat at this point, and Lopez has a clbadic embossed profile: big arm but little control. Both are projects on which the Royals must work

Level: C-

Atlanta Braves Get: RHP Brad Brach

With this trade that follows in the footsteps of a team less for Jonny Venters, the Braves actually patched their besieged enclosure. Brach had a tough season, but he was an All-Star in 2016, and he's added speed over time this season. In addition, it cost almost nothing to rent

Level: B

Baltimore Orifents Obtain: Bonus of the International Currency

Taking into account the Brach's stock had been damaged, this could have been the maximum that the Orioles could get for him. It's also an encouraging game, as it indicates that Baltimore is ready to put an end to its frustrating reluctance to engage in the international market.

Level: B +
