It was so bad the guy deleted the Tweet lol

Although, Detmers would be a very nice pickup for a modest price.

Hagen Smith straight up is as much as I’d offer and even that has some risk. I get Angels may not do that but it’s a high end arm for a solid pitcher with above average stuff closer to free agency…but he isn’t a top of the rotation guy and Smith could be.

And in reality - I don’t think I’d even do that unless my internal grade on him was a lot lower. Detmers could be a guy whose emerged but giving up on a fully controlled guy with swing and miss stuff (albeit he has bust risk) just doesn’t make a lot of sense to me - especially knowing we have Smith and McDpugall hopefully on the way soon.

Is acquiring veteran players at the break actually a winning formula for the second half of the season or merely an outdated baseball cliche?

Why would a team need to add anybody if it's already doing great? Maybe try to steal a reliever for some stiff in Class A and cash but a real trade? Cmon.

As far as I would go

Both of those guys should be very cheap. Singer has pitched better recently and his stats are weighed down heavily by a bad stretch he had in May after he got hit by a line drive. I'm not sure why we'd need another right handed outfielder since we've probably got 1 too many when everyone gets healthy.
