So we traded our last 2 first rounders?

That better mean AA spends significant money on another OF and SP

Pache had a lot of prospect fatigue and I’m not sad he’s gone (Acuna will be) but Langeliers sucks to lose.
I'm a prospect hoarder at heart, but I'm surprised that I'm totally hating this deal (or maybe I'm just talking myself into it). Trading Pache doesn't bother me at all because I don't believe he'll ever hit. Most people peg Estes as a reliever.
Langeliers and Cusick hurt me the most. We have to hope Contreras can become the guy, and that would lessen the pain of Langeliers a lot. Cusick I'm just bummed about losing. Really loved him.
I’m guessing that Soler to Braves is coming soon?
Kinda easy to see maybe Lango moving. No other reason to sign Pina for 2 years unless TDA and Contreras were acceptable for next 2 years.
That’s a good trade honestly. I don’t think Pache will ever be a serious big bat..... Lango hurts .... no doubt

If there is a silver lining here, it's that we traded from a position of strength overall. We are deep at all of those positions as an organization and it doesn't seem like most top prospect catchers turn into MVP candidates.
I'm not excited about Duvall as everyday CF or Acuna having to spell him some out there. Hopefully Harris develops quickly or AA has something else.
Olson was an absolute monster last year and is enterring his prime.
A player like that is going to cost a lot.

Wish it could’ve been Contreras instead of Lang, but I’m fine with the rest.
I wonder what Freddie is thinking now…
The projection for Olson is $12m this year. We should have a massive amount of money left to spend....
Get off my lawn!

Sign Soler then look at new homes for Duvall and Ozuna. Continue shopping.
