Lookout Linkage, 8/2/16

The deadline passed and the Mariners didn't do anything. But other teams are more exciting than the Mariners. So let's talk about them:

• The M's were reportedly close on a trade for Zack Cozart but a trade never transpired.
• The A's gave up Josh Reddick and Rich Hill in a deal with the Dodgers.
• The Rangers made two large moves, one for Carlos Beltran and another for Jonathan Lucroy.
• The Mets ended up with Reds outfielder Jay Bruce.
• The Indians made a move for reliever Andrew Miller.
• In order to bolster a weakened bullpen, the Yankees have acquired reliever Tyler Clippard.
• The Cardinals made a deal with the White Sox for lefty reliever Zach Duke.
• The Padres re-acquired starter Colin Rea after he got injured with the Marlins.
• Will Smith (not the actor, hahahahaha ok sorry) got moved to San Francisco.
• The Giants also netted starter Matt Moore in a deal with the Rays.
• The Blue Jays have acquired starter Francisco Liriano from the Pirates.
• The Angels and Twins made a swap that Dave Cameron considered one of the strangest he's seen.
• Some drama is going on in Los Angeles as Yasiel Puig didn't join the team on the trip to Colorado despite being on the active roster.
