Last year's deadline deals were salary dumps and he did the best he could after he was ordered to do so. Who would have any value in a trade, lol? DeGrom, Nimmo, and who else? Maybe Rosario and a minor league pitcher could go for a decent player. I'd bring up Jeff Mcneil first though and see if he could play shortstop in the majors.
Best hope we have is current players returning to form because nothing good with trades or free agents will happen under current cheapo ownership.
