There is one hour left until the non-waiver trade deadline passes (though some news always seems to trickle out for a while thereafter), and here are some things for your face:

In Carlos Beltran deal, Rangers sending more to Yankees than Dillon Tate.

Tate is having a down year, but he was the 4th overall pick in 2015. There’s loads of upside there, which makes it a steep price to pay for Beltran. But we’ve been seeing steep prices since yesterday, so that’s par for the course.
It’ll be interesting to see if the Giants do land Moore, and, if so, how much the Rays can get for him given the many reasonable questions about his future.
