    Catchable of course. Routine, probably not. We all have heRd he is shaky so we are going to evaluate everything we see. That was not an "easy" play.
  2. E-D-D-I-E
    You mean like they have done with all the other prospects? They have jerked every one of them around.
  3. E-D-D-I-E
    Last year they drafted more college pitchers than bats, in the top 15. Although I was surprised as well when i saw it.
  4. E-D-D-I-E
    VERY interesting take. I have no doubt that ego has a place in this game, even in the "front offices". How many times have we all said "He is trading the other GM's guys".

    I am not arguing whether or not they would play here. I am arguing that value for value, this was a bad deal. I don't believe for a second that any of us know what Stowers value was. Stowers might have been the key to the deal. I have no idea. But in my mind, 2 starters for their 2024 team for a #4 is GOOD VALUE for them. Why do you think the O's always draft the best player instead of a need? Value....I don't always agree with it, but it is a fact.

    The Marlins must have agreed because they wanted him. If this was a dump, then Elias really smells bad on this.
  7. E-D-D-I-E
    True. I wouldn't have made this deal and we all wouldn't have something to yell about.
  8. E-D-D-I-E
    and doesn't win titles, sad to say. See Florida Panthers for latest example.
  9. E-D-D-I-E
    Well considering Norby has hit EVERYWHERE he has been, I would say he will be a solid major league 2nd basemen. In my eyes, Norby alone was a fair trade. Adding Stowers made it an overpay.
  10. E-D-D-I-E
    What you just said is why teams don't stay competitive for longer lengths of time. Value is value regardless of surplus. This stinks of a panic move.
  11. E-D-D-I-E
    Another head scratcher. This team needs a shot in the arm. Vavra ain't gonna supply it.
  12. E-D-D-I-E
    Not sure I trade 2 useful trade pieces "today" for a guy "for next year", especially in our current rotation situation.
  13. E-D-D-I-E
    Norby made out best in this deal. GL Connor!
  14. E-D-D-I-E
    And could we have paid them with the Burnes deal too?
  15. E-D-D-I-E
    Different topic. I spoke about his drafting style and how it can show a chink in his armor. It's part of what you're saying as well with depth.
