The MLB trade is this Thursday, and yet, if Minnesota Twins president of baseball operations, Derek Falvey, is to be believed, teams aren't ready to make deals. In speaking with reporters over the weekend, Falvey indicated that teams are still in the information-gathering stage of trade talks.
“There are a lot of discussions, don’t get me wrong,” Falvey said. “There are a lot of calls back and forth. But in terms of actual proposals and offers, this stuff tends to come as you get much closer to the deadline. In some of these conversations, they’re not advanced yet, because it’s just timing.
