Napoli for Francisco d'Arnaud, Syndergaard, Becerra, Buck for Dickey and Thole, Nickeas Aviles and Gomes for Esmil Rogers Marlins trade Hill for Johnson vs. Donaldson Wells Escobar Lawrie Rasmus Morrow I'd be a bit surprised if someone did the math and found that the good far outweighed the bad.

It's still just 550 innings. Around the same time the wheels fell off for Hellickson.
-
Wouldn't it make sense to wait until I do it before calling me out for it?
-
Welp
-
Probably also still reeling from losing his "CCC will cruise past 30 hometowns" bet to me.
-
He'll make like 525K
-
What a vagine
-
Dickey's IP are part of the value he provides. RA-9 gives both credit for their actual run prevention while also crediting them for IP. I thought it was fair if we're discussing who would be the better value this year.
-
Lock it in at $25?
-
What better way would there be to evaluate Estrada and Dickey? Both are FIP beaters, and a legit part of the argument for Dickey over Estrada is that Dickey is a good bet for 220 innings and Estrada topped out at 180 this year.
-
So you think Estrada is the better investment but won't bet on him being more valuable. Your dumn. Boxy?
-
What about RA-9 WAR?
-
Boxy and Dinger: Estrada vs. Dickey 2016 ERA and IP wager? I don't believe the Estrada is better.
-
Dickey for me.
-
You forgot the 5th OF making 21M. It will take years to clean the financial mess up.

I wonder how Walt Jocketty would react to that phone call. "Hey Walt, you guys are poor as s*** and obviously can't afford your MVP candidate. I'm thinking we send you a few mid-tier prospects for him. Also, you eat, say, $50M. Deal?"
-
Yankees have to be salivating at the thought of adding a mid-prime star to their ageing lineup. He's perfect for crust short RF porch too.
-
Well... your dumn

The Donaldson trade was pretty much unanimously considered a pillaging from the moment it was made, and that trade is praised constantly. I'm pretty sure I show the appropriate reverence to it like twice a month. I don't really think people are ignoring the Donaldson trade.
-
Payroll isn't really on him. And the Dodgers are good. Also, weren't you all over Zaidi's nuts up until now?
-
I don't think so. All the action has been in the LOD.
-
Could still move Miller or Gyorko. Gyorko has SS/2B/3B and Miller SS/CF. Would be looking for a SP, good prospect, or very good pick. Also, Romo/Storen
-
Yeah, this is a good post. AA has seemingly improved a lot from the days of ignoring defense, buying pitchers based on ERA, investing heavily in relievers, and rostering awful players because of character. He's not a below-average GM. But I don't think he's bright enough that people should worry if he leaves. There are others who can do as good a job, or better, and with Shapiro at the helm the team has one of the Presidents most likely to fill the GM chair with a quality guy.
-
A few top prospects? I'm not seeing prospects good enough that the Reds are going to pay tens of millions of dollars for.
-
I wouldn't go that far. I don't have an emotional attachment to the team, but I think Shapiro has a chance to build something special, and hope he does.
