Shelby to AZ for E. Inciarte, A. Blair, and Dansby Swanson

Have not criticized this FO once, but if Blair is the main return, I just can't anymore. I love this team but idk
 
B-ref WAR loves Inciarte, if that is indeed who we're getting. Hard not be skeptical of his bat, though- a 101 OPS+ last year, and that was driven entirely by batting average.
 
Inciarte is an interesting piece. Phenomenal defender who was worth more than 5 WAR last year. If we can get a good prospect on top of that, I'll take it.
 
Inciarte is a good defender but I don't see where his bat fits. He lacks the OBP skills of a top of the order guy. He has good speed but isn't a great base stealer. He's not got much pop at all. Not a bad hitter just not a particularly useful one.
 
Fangraphs likes Inciarte a little less- 3.3 WAR, which is respectable.

I'm just skeptical of counting on an outfielder whose entire offensive skill set is hitting singles.
 
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Man, I can't remember the last time a team traded away so much talent and got so little back.

Heyward for Ender WOOOOOO
 
Nick Piecoro is saying Blair and Swanson are also involved, which would be pretty nifty. No word on if we would be including anything else.
