Between Hosmer, Moustakas, and Cain, 2 of the 3 are almost guaranteed to be gone, so to keep them for 80 games in an attempt to push past 500 instead of getting key prospects for a depleted farm system rubs me the wrong way. And for that matter, trade Herrera for peanuts and trade Vargas while he's red hot.

I love winning now. It's an addiction. But I love long term success even more.

Teams aren't coughing up as much as you might think for rentals these days. You are still going to get comp picks so it isn't like you are left empty handed.

We don't have the bullpen but we have a solid lineup at the plate with the exception of Moss.

Hammel has been pitching awesome lately. If all he needed was a slight adjustment then this signing is huge. Hopefully he keeps this up.

Boni boink....:clap:
