I hope Len returns soon and gets some heavy minutes. I want him to get a chance to prove himself.
Fuck the trade the dbacks made today thats what
Go on...tell us what you think nogi!

Why? We basically traded a rental player back to the angels for a better hitter than eaton would have ever become. I wish we would have trade pollack but the projected prospects are some nice trade bait as well. We just hosed the angels again! Skaggs had his opportunity and could never get it together in arizona.
I think giving away the prospects that you have salivated over for the past few years for a hitter that has below a .300 OBP and is awful defensively is a pathetic move
So much for fucking grit.

definitely think we didnt hose them
Hope this trade doesnt come back and hurt us
I honestly don't understand why Eaton was rated so highly in the Dbacks organization. He'll be marginally better than Pollock when all is said and done.
not crazy about the trade
but to play devils advocate
I heard not many players in clubhouse like Eaton. Radio shows suggested Eaton was a bit like Bauer, felt entitled. Clubhouse improvement with him gone
Eaton can hit when hes right, but looks like organization believes Pollock is the better player right now. Eaton, also doesn't walk
As for Skaggs, bottom line is the velocity concerns at such a young age. Hes like a slightly harder throwing Jamie Moyer right now without the control. When your FB only hits 88, and you can't control your curveball, your gonna get killed. What if Skaggs has same kinda 2014??? Then, not only are you stuck with those results, his trade value probably plummets to the point where you get pretty much nothing in return for him
Corbin is good, Miley is good. Still have Cahill, McCarthy, and Delgado. And possibly the real gem in Archie Bradley sometime next summer. Skaggs, kinda expendable. Bradley probably takes Delgado's spot in rotation because McCarthy is being paid a lot in 2014.
