I like Joe Sheehan a bunch, but he misses the mark on a few things he said there.
First, let’s revisit his comments about the Shields/Davis trade. They did not spend 16 months trying to turn Davis into a starter.
They spent 3-4. He moved to the bullpen late in 13 and was in the bullpen to start 2014. They talked about him having a floor of being a high-value reliever. So that didn’t come out of nowhere.
Second, saying those two trades are the only things Moore has done overlooks the overhaul of the farm system from complete laughing stock to an elite system that was one of the best in recent memory.
Third, as pointed out, it takes something Moore said at face value. Which we know is folly.
