I like the Revere trade and depending on the return, trading Dickey is worthwhile. We could have a really great bullpen and a serviceable rotation...or a really good bullpen and a wild card starter in Sanchez or Osuna.
Not sure where trying to win a World Series has anything to do with Fantasy. Trading Hoffman for Pitcher at the beginning of the year might have. We didn't need more offense.

Miller doesn't throw avg, flat fastballs over the middle of the plate every other pitch as far as I can tell. Unless Hutch figures something out, Miller would be an upgrade depending on the price.
There are so many different scenarios in here, hard to keep track.
It starts with pitching. 99% of the years, teams will not win with just pitching or just offense that's common sense, didn't think I needed to spell this stuff out.
I'm not wrong. If there was 1 be all way to win the World Series every team would want the same type players, same philosophies in terms of offense, pitching, and defense. Unfortunately there is not. That's the beauty of baseball.
Sadly I am, you are not. Pitching owns hitting in the playoffs. If we had Greinke, Price, Stroman, Estrada in the playoffs with our offense...compared to the pitching we had and Trout instead of Pillar.
Before last season would you trade Hoffman for Trout knowing there was no chance to win it all or trade Hoffman for Greinke knowing you had the best chance to win it all.
