    I'd be ok with that. Hand would be a fantastic addition to this team

    Again, I'm fine with the trade, but how do we give up significantly more for Liriano than the Indians did for Smith?

    I get that Liriano is a lefty, but Smith is the better pitcher (at a much cheaper cost) by pretty much every single metric.

    That package is WAY too much considering what the Yankees gave up. Fowler is #77 on the top 100, a deal centered around Franklin Perez OR Fisher with some nice throw ins like JD Davis and Cionel Perez should have been enough to get this deal done.

    Remember when...

    - Astacio got hurt
    - we lost with Randy
    - Kazmir sucked
    - Perez sucked

    TBH I just remember Chris Burke... extra innings... low rope homer. It was late when that one finished.

    Shaping up to be another underwhelming trade deadline. Looking forward to 2020!

    And Roy O, in 2001. Lose a guy who won 15 games between May and September right before playoffs. Hernandez, another rookie with a great showing in the rotation, was also hurt.

    Might be easier to just post what deals the Dodgers AREN'T in on.
