Rays might be willing to sell starters. I think they would consider this proposal.

Bradley is undervalued with how well he's pitching right now. Gotta remember his stats are skewed by a game against the Orioles where Cash was thrown out in the 1st or 2nd inning and Bradley imploded for 9 runs in 3ish innings before finally being removed. If not for that game, where Bradley should have been removed in the 2nd inning, his stats look a lot better on the year. He's pitched great in every other game. In any event, Delauter is having an awful season and there has to be real questions about his ability to hit upper minors pitching, to say nothing of Major League pitching. He doesn't get Bradley in a straight 1:1 deal, to say nothing of tacking on the Rays #1 Int'l Signee from last year who is playing better than Junior Caminero did at similar levels as a teenager. Sorry, but just as my trade proposals last year of Aroz for Delauter were unrealistic, so is this trade. If Cleveland wants starters, the Rays should be willing to deal Eflin, Civale, and Littell. Bradley, Pepiot and Baz are off limits.

DeLauter's problem actually hasn't been hitting pitching this season... It's been keeping his foot healthy.. He reinjured his surgerically repaired one and when he got back, injured his other foot (not badly, but enough to sit him for a minute) National media analysts don't like his swing, but when healthy (Aka spring training he was) he honestly can hit... Most of us in Cleveland feel he will be Cleveland's long term RF which is why we doubt Cleveland will listen to almost any deal on him...

Fair enough. Rays still ain't trading Bradley. ;)

I wasn't expecting them to at the end of the day... Small market teams do things very similarly and it makes no sense to trade him when he has so many years of control...

Cleveland also isn't bringing back Rosario... They have no reason too.... Most deals DeLauter isn't available, but for Bradley, Cleveland would at least think on the swap...
