    We should have included Forsythe in the trade.

    Why are we so hard on Forsythe? I think he's producing more than Reddick did last year.

    Okay, that's not saying much, I know.

    My opposite thought superstition worked once again. Yes taking full credit for the trades today. :D Anyone find it disconcerting that the Yankees were able to get Sonny Gray using 2 of the 3 players that are currently injured AND out for the season??? If this were the NBA it would have been vetoed by the Commish.

    I do have some concerns with this guy as he is sporting some personal high negative numbers.Those would be his era (4.01) and HR and SO per 9 innings. Still come playoff time him and Kershaw will be tough MFers to face.

    Never discount the Honeycutt factor when discussing the new pitchers.

    He's got the magic touch and just might turn one of the new LHs into a valuable contributor.

    Numbers are a little inflated because of Arlington. His away ERA is 2.49.

    Plus Lucroy is the worst framer in MLB this year.

    Stoked about Darvish. I am not sold on either of the lefties we brought in for the bullpen. While there are some encouraging signs that they can turn it around, neither of them seem like guys I would trust against the likes of Harper, Murphy, Rizzo, etc with the game on the line in the postseason.

    I remember saying something about how we could trade some injured young guys like Toles and I was told that was not possible.
    I also remember saying that the Dodgers should not only not include Buehler or Verdugo but only include one of either Alvarez or Calhoun but not both. And to include some lesser middle of the pack prospects and get back some undervalued relievers instead of pay high prospect costs for a closer.
    We have Kenley, we good.

    Thrilled about Darvish, indifferent to the other two.

    He's cheap enough where we should pick up his option this off season. Should have pieces to dangle this off season like him, Ryu, McCarthy, etc

    Trump is buying the naming rights to DS.

    New rules: all the K's on the strikeout board go the same way from now on!
