Aren't you glad we didn't trade for Quintana? Getting lit up by brewers today. His era is 4.48, and FIP was 4.63 entering today.

gausman could end up being a real steal for us.

Pitt is so dumb. I hope AA is taking notes and abuses them this winter. They paid WAY too much for Archer.

I'm honestly flabbergasted that they ALSO sent Shane Baz over in the deal. In my opinion, that is almost a Miller level fleecing on the Rays part. Good for them for getting full value plus some out of Archer. I thought the PTBNL would be just some guy in low A or something.
I think the true dumb part is not just what they sent but when they sent it. They basically sold off this past winter for prospects and then let a big win streak trick them into thinking they have a good club so then they sold better prospects to replace players they sold this winter. Just dumb. No one outside of a few dummies in the Pitt FO think they have any real shot this season.

It looks like we will face Archer, Nova and T. Williams early next week in Pittsburgh.
The Pirates were constantly criticized for not adding to the good teams anchored by Cutch in his prime. Rightfully so, imo. Those were legit teams.
Now they dump prospects for a declining Archer months after selling away Cole.
Truly mindbogglingly dumb. I hope Pirates fans realized they finally got what they asked for, and now I doubt they like it.
I wonder when the young Eloy prospect fellow is going to be called up by the White Sox? I just read soon, shouldn't they wait until 9/1?
I was against trading for Archer and posted saying he would cost too much and that he is overrated IMO. Pittsburgh gave up what Archer was worth a few years ago, not now IMO. But I am sure Pittsburgh thinks they can fix him since they gave up so much. Time will tell on that.
