    And they gave up capital.

    Remember the last time we were competing for a WC during a non-impacted COVID szn? I can’t. But that’s the reality for the Dodgers and Jankees. They are desperate and no shocker they dive deeper into lux. It’s just not going to work out the way they think it will.

    I remember when all other MLB teams thought it was over when the Astros added Greinke to go along with Verlander and Cole. Anything can happen in the playoffs, but the Dodgers just added two more damn all-starts to their team.

    I hope Click goes out and gets another bat. Ok Straw is playing better but I want Kris Bryant. Apparently in limited time he's shown he's capable of playing CF. Not great but not a liability. Just hopefully seeing Dodgers add another solid pitcher to their rotation will make Click counter and add a bat.

    Click isn't gonna worry about the Dodgers, despite what all of the chicken littles around here think.

    He's gonna make whatever move he thinks is in the Astros best interest short and long term.

    This is all good. Max went to a team that could be one game and done. With all these blockbuster trades going down, the market gets smaller for the other guys, which means price comes down. Click is going to make maybe one more splash. Still plenty of guys out there. Charlie Morton, Bryant, Buxton, Kimbrel and Jon Gray on my short list anyway.

    You think they’re wanting Bauer included in this tweet?

    LAD still gonna lose the WC game, everyone needs to chill. Also, and more importantly, no one is beating the Stros, so just relax a bit. We don’t need to overhaul the squad.
