Better be something good, because my normal tendency toward rage at trades with which I disagree is heightened tenfold at the moment because I have consumed an awful lot of gin.

Welp, that's that...we traded him for another **** reliever, one who was complete ass prior to this year? **** hell, it's nice and all to get a reliable seventh-inning pitcher, but that's a steep price when we have no **** rotation to speak of.

Looked at his wikipedia page. Mediocre name, mediocre face, mediocre career stats. Meh

No we sold low. AA the golden boy is slowly losing his touch and exposing himself. With that said,

cue the apologetic "this had to be done/it was a steal" posts.

Hating this deal right now.

I agree, this move screams desparate to try and get into the playoffs. Brad Lincoln should've cost us an Eric Thames. Not Travis Snider.

I doubt anyone is going to defend this move, as it stands.

There have been a ton of post defending his mediocrity for the last 2 years, I'd be surprised if it stopped here.
