Eh - he's a lefthanded Munoz. Defense, approach, all of it.

He absolutely mauled righies in his minor league career and showed a surprising amount of pop for a utility player.

I said when we acquired Munoz that I'd have some use for him if he hit lefthanded, well that's pretty much what Robinson is. He has a chance to be a pretty useful 25th man on the roster which makes him more valuable than Garcia.

It's a 'meh' deal but a fairly useful one, especially since he still has an option year left. I don't see anything to complain about with this deal and if the !@#$ing guy would go get Harper and then move Martinez for a 'stuff' lefty instead of a 'name' lefty, we'd be in pretty good shape.

There's always been a path towards contention with this team if Mozeliak has the juevos to pull it off.

Sadly, he doesn't.

Career minor league numbers are sub-Garcia, hence the concern. The extra year compared to Wisdom is useful, but this guy's projections say AAA.

we got a ton of legitimate beefs with this FO. getting anything for a guy that any team could have had for nothing but a waiver or rule 5 claim doesn’t get my pissed off juices flowing.

If they could flip Martinez for Puig, would that work?

I don't bother with anything below AAA stats, for good or ill.

He has a significant enough sample size at AAA to draw from and it shows a guy with good power and solid plate discipline. And when you break it into splits, it shows a guy that absolutely smokes right-handed pitching.

Garcia was an average only guy who went up there looking to hit a well placed grounder or battle long enough to draw a walk. That's not completely useless but it was on this squad where we had no lefthanded power. This kid, OTOH, gives us an actual role off the bench in late innings. He's probably not someone that's going to go out there and house Kimbrel or anything, but he can get out there in the 8th against a setup man and put one in the gap for a crooked number here and there.

Now to be fair, his big league numbers say he may be a AAAA guy and if so, eh, whatever. We didn't give up anything for him and we still have Edman who will be Greg Garcia when he grows up. But the plan here is sound.

If I'm going to grade on process, the process here makes sense.

In the end the team that won the NL Pennant will do a hell of a lot more to improve themselves than the squad that came in 3rd in the NL Central.

I'm pretty sure we can bank on that.

Because some teams give a shit - others want 90 wins and consider a $50 million profit break even.

Martinez doesn't make a ton of sense on paper for the Dodgers given his struggles defensively at first base and in the outfield, but perhaps they would promptly flip him to an American League team. The 30-year-old can certainly hit -- he's posted an .850 OPS in 270 games over the last three seasons with St. Louis. Martinez seems certain to be traded somewhere this winter.

There are rumors that the Cardinals would consider dealing O'Neill for Will Smith.

I mean **** me in the face at that point. That deal would be STAGGERINGLY stupid. I mean just unbelievably idiotic. 1 !@#$ing season of a lefthanded reliever for 6 years of a 30+ HR outfielder who will take a walk and can play CF in a pinch.

I'd say they aren't that stupid but...they are.

As for the Dodgers - what gives the Dodgers the ability to flip Martinez to an AL team if the Cardinals can't? Aren't they effectively talking about a 3-team deal in 2 parts at that point? Is Mozeliak still chafing about that time he gave up a cleanup hitter in a trade that involved Corey Kluber and he ended up with that piece of shit Jake Westbrook?

I mean I know his history with 3-team deals isn't great....well y'know what, his history with 2 team deals isn't all that stellar either.

Just go back to be, Moe. This job's beyond your pay grade.
