Just too much variance there, with the way those guys pan out.

Well, I'm not going to harp on the trade anymore because I know my opinion on it will just piss people off on here. But, I will say that my desire to trade him is based on the assumption/premise that we do get aj Adam Eaton type return for him. If not, keep him and I guess try again at the deadline. I think it's safe to say his value will never be higher than it is now. That's all I'll say, my opinion on the matter is known. I won't bring it up again.
On another note, the Mesa brothers have been cleared to sign with teams. I seriously doubt we have any chance with either, but damn it sure would be nice to pull off a miracle and pluck one of them.
