It’s been a busy 24 hours as the Colorado Rockies traded Ryan McMahon to the New York Yankees and are also reportedly calling up Warming Bernabel for his MLB debut as a possible replacement. The crazy thing is that the trade deadline is a week away; but the not-so-crazy thing is that it wouldn’t be surprising if this was the only trade that the Rockies make. It sounds like they might also be shopping Victor Vodnik and Seth Halvorsen, or they could also still potentially part ways with Thairo Estrada, Germán Márquez, Jake Bird, Tyler Kinley, or someone else.
Inside the division, the Arizona Diamondbacks also traded their first baseman Josh Naylor to the Seattle Mariners and are likely to sell off some more of their assets. Again, the trade deadline is still a week away so there are still plenty of moves to be made!
In the meantime, here’s what our staff was up to this week:

Who else do you think the Rockies will trade at the deadline? (And do you think Nolan Arenado is jealous of RyMac??)
