Yeah, I don't think anyone is calling Brez an idiot because of this deal.
-
Yes, but I think he's right that the $17 mill is a big factor in itself.
-
We gave up 7, 11 and 8 runs in the 3 games. With our 2 best starters going. Our pitching is in meltdown mode.

Craig Breslow hired as Head Of Baseball Operations

Can't help thinking Brez is getting sticker shock on what's being asked for good relievers. Somewhere Chaim Bloom is smiling. So...who will be this year's Hansel Robles and Austin Davis? -
Dombrowski might be the best pure talent evaluator in the game. He does need some money behind him to make things work. He and the Phillies owner seem to be a match made in baseball high roller heaven.
-
No, not necessarily, only if you're getting enough back to make it worth it. And as we're seeing, there's risk of it being a bad move even if you do get something back.
-
Regardless of how anyone felt at the time, we're not the CBO, and the fact is that the CBO's moves are judged pretty heavily on results. DD's extension of Sale would be a prime example of that. Hell, DD has taken an enormous amount of flak for Price, even though Price was instrumental in winning a ring. It's a tough job these guys have, making guesses that can have hundreds of millions attached to them...

The sunk cost principle also applies to Yoshida. You're not going to be able to move him without paying too much, so you might as well keep him.
-
The Giolito signing was announced first. Also, you need to relax a little. I was just having fun posting those reactions.

Hopefully Brez hasn't quickly reconsidered buying after watching the last few games... -
Slaten.

700 not a fan of it.
-
cp176 was the biggest hater of the trade.
-
Ouch.
-
Some doubts about Grissom.
-
Hitch loved it.
-
Dipre also in the "more must be coming" category.
-
moon's initial reaction was not enthused.
-
Red was all over the $17 mill!
-
Another "more is coming" believer.
-
The "more is coming" response.
-
And another.
-
Here's a guy who wasn't impressed.
-
All? Definitely not. Go back and read the initial reactions on this thread. They were mixed, with a lot of them guessing it meant there was more coming. If everyone knew at the time that the only things happening were Sale going and Giolito coming, I think the overall reaction would have been decidedly negative.
