The Cleveland Guardians made their first move of the 2024 MLB trade deadline with the acquisition of Washington Nationals outfielder Lane Thomas. It was a move that improved one of the main weaknesses that the team had.

While Thomas is a solid addition, the Guardians could still use some more help if they want to make a run at a championship this season.

Keeping that in mind, Chris Antonetti, the team’s President of Baseball Operations, has spoken out and hinted about more trades coming in the near future.

“We’re definitely not done pursuing things. Whether or not that leads to another deal or more deals, it’s really hard to forecast.”

Antonetti did honestly state that the trade market has been a tough one to navigate this year.

“It was one of the reasons we went out and signed Matt Boyd a couple of weeks ago because we were anticipating this was going to be a challenging market. That’s proven to be the case.”

Acquiring Thomas was a move to improve the offenses potential. Antonetti spoke out about what he expects the veteran outfielder to bring to Cleveland.

“We feel we’ve been able to do that by bringing Lane into the organization. He’s a versatile outfielder, a guy that’s capable of playing center field, right field and can contribute offensively, defensively and on the bases.”

In order to get Thomas, the Guardians had to give up a lot of value, something that Antonetti also spoke out to the press.

“We gave up a lot of value, but that’s what the market necessitated. We gave up three players that we think have a chance to go on and have bright futures and it’s painful to make deals like this, but this is one we felt we had to make.”

All of that being said, it doesn’t sound like Cleveland is done following their move to acquire Thomas.

More trades appear to be likely, assuming the Guardians can find a team that wants to deal as well. It will be interesting to see what Tuesday brings for Cleveland.

There still are plenty of players still out there in free agency still looking for their next opportunities.

Free agency has moved extremely slowly lately and there still are plenty of players out there. There are even some players who could give the Philadelphia Eagles a boost if they decide to make another.

The Eagles don’t necessarily need to add but there still are teams out there looking to add depth throughout the organization and the Dallas Cowboys seem to be one. Dallas is loaded throughout the roster and could be in the market for a quarterback to add more depth and reportedly held a workout for former Eagles quarterback Reid Sinnett recently, according to NFL insider Jordan Schultz.

“Free agent QB Reid Sinnett is working out for the Cowboys today, per source,” Schultz said. “Sinnett spent time with the (Cincinnati Bengals) practice squad last season.”

Sinnett went undrafted in the 2020 National Football League Draft and began his professional career afterward by signing with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as an undrafted free agent. Since then, he has made stops with the Miami Dolphins, Eagles, San Antonio Brahmas of the XFL, Bengals, and Houston Roughnecks of the United Football League.

He was claimed off waivers by the Eagles in 2021 but didn’t appear in a game. He was cut by Philadelphia in 2022 and spent some time on the practice squad before leaving to go elsewhere.

Hopefully he is able to find his next opportunity soon.
