Yep. Its really our only chance to take a huge leap forward.

Exactly. We are not in a next year or else the window closes. Why trade prospects for one year? He's going to want to get paid one last time after next year. Surely Mo has learned his lesson about giving aging players big money, guaranteed money with no trade clauses.

Make our defense worse. Put Fowler back in RF. Empty out the farm system for a 1 year run?
