Guys, you have to admit it's also easy being an armchair GM. Especially in retrospect.
*Obviously* we should have:
Kept Aaron Hill
Signed Yu Darvish
Traded for Justin Upton (Arencibia, Nicolino, Romero to Arizona)
Kept Syndergaard and Sanchez
Drafted Manny Machado
Gotten rid of Arencibia and kept Mathis and D'Arnaud
What a team and farm we would have. With a payroll 20M less.
But it doesn't work like that. No one knew that would have made the best team. You're lucky to have more than half your big moves work out. And this group has lots going for it. They've just dug themselves too deep of a hole.
