Fairly happy with the return. Once the reports were 5-1 last night I had a feeling it would be something like this. Quantity over quality. It was obvious that no teams involved were going to deal their top prospects. Hiura, Sheffield, Verdugo all reported never offered or flat out shut down when the O's asked. For everyone whining and moaning about the inflated reliever market from a few years ago...well, lightning doesn't strike twice.
Happy about Diaz. Brings skills that we need. The rest sound like they could develop into contributors, especially Kremer and Bannon. Pop sounds like an interesting piece, too. Hopefully the Orioles don't botch developing these guys.
But, as one of the previous tweets goes...what'd you expect for a rental? Should have traded him last year.
I will miss watching Manny. I'll be tuning into Dodgers games for sure.
