Meh, whatever, it's time to move on from this trade.

With Myers, we likely would have been cemented in the toilet this year. Eric Hosmer absolutely raked during his rookie season, and how much did that do for our overall record?

We weren't signing a big time SP free agent, trading was our only option.

I wasn't a fan of the trade when it happened, and it's quite possible that the trade will blow up in our faces, but let's quit pretending that we would be in a better position with Myers.

We wouldn't be, and it's quite possible Myers will still pull a Hosmer/Moose like regression as the season moves forward (those two also dominated when they first started, remember?)

TL;DR: Yes, the trade could blow up in our faces, but hey, at least it will be the end of Dayton if it does!
