This is spot on.
He's being overly cautious out of fear of a couple of his bad deals in Toronto (see below). While I'm glad he's not just blindly trading players, his approach of being too cautious isn't much better. He's over corrected way too much in the opposite direction. Surely there must be a happy medium and I wish he'd find it.
1. Trades Roy Halladay to the Philadelphia Phillies for Kyle Drabek, Travis d’Arnaud and Michael Taylor.
2. Trades Mike Aviles and Yan Gomes to the Cleveland Indians for Esmil Rogers.
3. Trades Noah Syndergaard, Travis d’Arnaud, John Buck and Wuilmer Becerra to the New York Mets for R.A. Dickey, Josh Thole and Mike Nickeas.
