Reyes bound for DL and it is only a matter of time before Desmond Takes off. Too good to be this bad. I would still prefer Sonny Grey

 

I agree that Desmond can't continue being this bad, although his approach is a mess at the moment and he isn't exactly getting BABIPed. In the end I decided to do the deal primarily to get more SBs, as my team has enough power overall to sustain the dropoff from Desmond to Reyes (assuming Desmond bounces back).

 

I'd rather have Sonny Gray too, although I think it's fairly safe to assume he's in for some ERA regression.

I wouldnt be surprised if he continues to be terrible until August and then gets shut down with some injury he's been playing through. Reyes hasnt exactly been carrying my team though so it's a decent risk for me

Desmond probably signs with the Yankees next year and goes on to have several 30 HR campaigns.

Desmond was a s***** major leaguer for 2 full seasons before something clicked, and even when he was good, the profile always smelled like a potential quick decline. I wouldn't be shocked if he was just suddenly done.

lol, K f***ing P is the 74th overall player in Yahoo right now

 

Obviously Yahoo rankings are based on your vanilla 5x5 shallow league settings. SBs are scarce, y'all.

Yeah, even last year when he went 24/24, he only slashed .255/.313/.430. I don't think he's done -- although it wouldn't shock me -- but I think the potential for me to deeply regret this trade is minimal.

RIP Joe Kelly

 

I love how the Red Sox gave up John Lackey for nothing, and the next year they spend like crazy to compete while completely neglecting their rotation.

Not just nothing; they actually gave up a prospect and cash with Lackey for the opportunity to pay Allen Craig a lot of money and have Joe Kelly continue to prove he isn't a starter. Pretty amazing trade by the Cardinals. Lackey is going to pile up 3 WAR this year making the minimum.
