I understand this all generally works itself out... I really do.

But am starting to see quite a logjam here with near-mlb ready pitchers:

You've got the locks:

Newcomb
Folty
Soroka

Then you've got the high upside arms who appear to be near ready if not ready:

Gohara
Fried
Allard
Wright

You have someone like Touki who could be knocking on the door by 2020.

Plus you have Teheran under contract. And I contend Wisler would be a very servicable #5.

That's 9 guys there. I'd love to be able to dump Julio, and you can always count on an injury or two and a flameout... but it is a bit of embarrassment of riches.

Of course, this could all be solved with a couple trades, but I'm having a hard time seeing the natural path to regular big league innings for the deserving kids

I've said many times i have to think we cash in those chips, but im not really sure for who.

Hopefully a Yelich situation pops up this winter. Brad Hand would be a great addition as well.

If we add a third baseman it will probably take away from Swanson's AB's more than Camargo's since Camargo is hitting better and has shown he can handle short without costing you runs. Swanson would still play pretty regularly either way with his improved defense.

It is not that far from wrong, when drafted Kershaw was the one mentioned in comparisons

All the usual comments from all the usual suspects after a good game by a SP.
