    M's are the big winner. They finally get an outfielder and leadoff hitter. All they have to give up is Nick Franklin who never had any future on their team with the Cano signing.

    Biggest loser is obviously TB. They get a scrub pitcher in Smyly and prospect in Franklin who was up and down last year. How do you only get Smyly and Franklin for Price? If that is what I was offered, I'd just hold onto Price, make a run with him this year, and at worst trade him in the offseason or next years trade deadline.

    Detroit-Oakland postseason series could have some sick pitching matchups for a couple games.

    never mention hitters as getting a good deal

    MLB is all pitching

    I could care less if a guy bats 380..it means nothing

    Big pitchers stop the good hitters all the time

    The winner is the Tigers. Austin Jackson is nothing special. Hitting .270 with 4 HRs and 32 RBI. Tigers get a good replacement for Smyly. This shouldn't have been needed anyway tho. Should have never gotten rid of Fister.

    Agree, though they have no back-up plan for the OF. As it stands, they now go with JD Martinez in left, Rajai Davis in center and Torii in right. UGLY.

    love these epic deadlines trades, thats what u live for as a GM. Tons of value you get in return for a guy like Price.

    Tigers vs. A's will be great. Price vs. Samardja, Scherzer vs. Lester

    Tigers are the best in that division but look how weak it is. I could see Cleveland make a run for it.

    They wanted to unload Price before he lost any value.

    most epic trade deadline ever, givingalready over-rated teams even crappier value. Hope you guys catch where the real value lies in these upcoming matchups and capitalize on them!!

    If they didn't re-sign Price, they would have gotten a compensatory draft pick from whatever team signed him. Cardinals got Mike Wacha when Albert Pujols left as a free agent, and Angels got Mike Trout when they lost Texeira as free agent.
