    I agree with you to some degree...beauty is in the eye of the beholder. We here, all assumed that the FO wanted/coveted/needed (whatever word is
    OK now) Hamels and Price. Like we all surely thought they would. Maybe they weren't making up dreamy lineups with those names on them,
    Maybe they looked at them, and shrugged their shoulders and didn't care, flat out. Maybe...
    I guess, considering that possibility, what we did get is, at worst, a set rotation with competent fill ins, and what would seem to be better in the BP.
    Peraza was a nice bonus.

    Yeah, even worse, I've lived in the Bay area for their last 2. I hate it so much.

    I guess I can't say I'm completely disappointed we didn't end up with price, Hamels or cueto. Obviously it would have been nice to have that 1-2-3 combo but I think wood, latos and Anderson is a tough middle to back end of the rotation. Especially considering the load of talent they wanted in return. Bolstered the bullpen too but I still hope we can get another strong reliever before tomorrow.

    I don't know what's going to happen next but one things for sure this FO is fun to observe!!!!!!!!!!! I'm not sure if they did this on purpose but getting this deal done during an off day allows guys to make it here with an opportunity to pitch. With all this Chapman talk anyone here interested in Kimbrel?

    just goes to show all the insiders don't really know more than any of us
    rumors are just that, and us being the favorites for hamels and making price our priority ending up being just a guess
    that said, who knows what tomorrow holds?...

    Did anyone see Upton's HR in the driving rainstorm in NY? I'm talking SE Asia horizontal rain.
    How far does it go in no rain at all ?

    Nope. He's under control for 2 more years and an option, I can't see he or Jansen being happy in an 8th inning role.

    I would be more interested in a guy like Benoit.

    Kenley is showing some chinks in his armor this year but I get you. I think he's allowed a run in his last 6 appearances or something similar. Just a thought. Don't get me wrong I'd want Kenley to coexist with Kimbrel.

    I don't think this FO will let "rolez" get in the way of getting the best players.

    Mlb network just did a FWAR based analysis on our before and after trade ratings. We gained a little over 2 points

    Beachy is a likely candidate. Sounds like he left OKC stadium with his bags packed and was scratched from tonight's start.
