Same w/ the Cardinals for me. Would have liked to add a SP/RP arm but seems like the prices were crazy high.
The Giants got the Brewers #3 prospect for Drew f**king Pomeranz. Lol
You guys could have gotten Wheeler for Bader. That absolutely should have been done. Missed opportunity.
Oh trust me I know. Been dealing w/ idiots on Twitter all day about it. Blah blah hes a rental blah blah blah. Bader is a decent OFer. He isn't gonna reach anything much higher than what he has so far. His speed and defense is what makes him valuable.
With that said, the Cardinals had the chance to deal from a spot of depth. They have more OFers than they know what to do with. Why you see guys like Dexter Fowler and Jose Martinez platooning. AND, ON TOP OF THAT, almost half of our top 20 prospects right now are outfielders.
But yeah, lets keep throwing Wacha and his 5+ ERA, 1.6+ WHIP out there.
Crazy frustrated after I found out we could have got Wheeler.
