Sam Moll for Joe Boyle. Solid trade for Reds. We needed another lefty in the pen and yes, his Era is up a
little but I’m gonna chalk that up to disinterest playing for the A’s. Gotta be tough to come to work
everyday knowing your going to get hammered. Suddenly being put in a pennant race has to get your
juices flowing so to speak. Joe Boyle is an interesting prospect. Throws 101 consistently but has no idea
where it’s going. Wish him well.

I know little about Joe Boyle, except I have his 1st Bowman Chrome refractor. Hope he makes it to the Bigs and figures it out.
Good point about Sam Moll. Being in playoff contention hopefully brings out the best in him.

Throws 101 consistently but has no idea where it’s going. Wish him well. Career he is sitting at a low 4 ERA. If we can get a 3.75 to 4 out of him, and him be consistent down the stretch from t he left side, it will be a good trade for us. I still hope we make one move for a starting pitcher that doesn't remove any of our big name players in the system: Marte, Arroyo, Petty, Phillips and of course no current major leaguers unless it is Newman, Casali or Weaver. I still think Lorenzen is our best option, that is most affordable. The Padres I am not sure if they are buyers or sellers, but I am sure Snell or Lugo will be a little expensive and both will be free agents after this year as I fully expect Lugo to void the last two years of his contract following this year. They would be good options. Lorenzen has done really well since the start of july. At any rate, I think we need another starter because I don't think we can really count on Lodolo coming back this year.
