It would be nice to acquire another SP and move Hays. Castillo and Doyle are fixer-uppers, Brazoban is a definite upgrade, as is Bart. All that for Mason Adams and Boston Smith. Works for me.

WE have one more guy to shuffle. That's cool. I didn't really care about catcher, I wanted a top pitcher, a no doubt one we could be pumped about. Instead we got another guy to shuffle if he gets hot. With Fedde and Schultz looking good this weekend, it's not that amazing to me.Oh and we got bort from colorado.I agree in a general sense, but not in the context of this team. The 2014-2017 White Sox would do that at like, 7 of the 9 positions, whereas this team is just doing it at catcher

I wanted to get a guy that every 5 days we'd feel very good about. But all of our pitchers are turning it around.
1 hour ago1 hr We've got some roster work to do either way, way too many platoon OFers and Romo finally going to go join Charlotte.
1 hour ago1 hr Honestly don't think Stephenson is getting dealt. Must be trying to get a kings ransom. This is borderline negligence from the Reds

1 hour ago1 hr 6 minutes ago, mqr said:I think you posted this as a gotcha, but that blocks above average number has me feeling better about the trade in all honesty.I posted this as a reference and evidence that Bart is better than both our current options behind the plate. I don't have a super strong preference on Romo/Quero as backup, but I trust Romo more behind the plate for sure.
1 hour ago1 hr Honestly, a few weeks ago if you would told me this was the haul, I’d probably think, yeah, that sounds about right. Wasn’t til yesterday I started itching for more.

And I'm sure because he's controllable, the price was probably very high.It’s the stuff. He has always possessed the pure stuff of an ace and hasn’t been able to put it together. Recently this year, he has started to finally show flashes and indications that he is putting it together and for the next 2.5 years is trending to come into the frontline ace teams have seen as a ceiling for him.
57 minutes ago57 min Foster Griffin to Guardians. Nice pickup, but underlying metrics on him are Houser-like (i.e., suggests a useful player who isn't going to stay in the low 3s/high 2s).
