I may be in the minority here but with the premium price RP's are getting, we should highly consider moving Vizcaino if we can get the right piece(s)

Definitely made the right decision to rebuild. Just don't love some of the deals.

Definitely a win for the Braves because of Swanson. I don't think long term Blair or Inciarte are pieces that are going to truly come back to haunt the Dbacks. Swanson absolutely looks like that piece though

I honestly would gladly take anyone outside of Fredi. But Black would be a great option

Exactly! This team will never be a true contender as long as Fredi is around. This is the perfect opportunity to dump him and start fresh in the new stadium

Fredi needs to get fired and felt that way before horrible start. I truly believe that the FO's plan all along was have Fredi go through a bit of the tough times and bring in a new manager for 2017. At least that's my hope. I think the ideal scenario is fire Fredi early, promote Eddie Perez...

Weigel is a very interesting pitcher

Olivera is horrible and my initial reaction of that trade being horrible is justified. That's my way too early impression.

Simmons can't hit fo s*it. He was a player I loved but that trade is far from the reason why we're not going to contend this year. Every move we've made over the last two years is why

Agreed. I'd love to see an OF with both of them. We should be trading Markakis. However, I still move Inciarte before Mallex for two reasons. 1- Inciarte will bring a much bigger return 2 - I see Mallex as being a potential impact bat as a leadoff hitter for us.

Biggest issue to me is that after all this talk about an improved Olivera, all I see is the same incredibly long swing. Obviously we all need to realize how early it is but specifically talking Olivera....that trade is crap

Huge blow. They do have Socrates Brito who's a good looking young player to step in. He's actually the guy I wanted in the Shelby deal before I knew Inciarte was possible. Brito is a good player

Probably ends up not doing much but I like the move. Moore is a decent RH bat off the bench with power

Nothing wrong with this

absolutely not. we're not getting 50 HR from Adonis and Olivera.

If this starts lingering a month or 2 into the year he 100% has to get surgery right away. Get it done in a wasted year and be fully ready to go at the start of 2017

Coppy should 100% trade Aybar if we can get a long term piece.

Agree with part of this and Newcomb definitely has development left. But he's also a guy with front line SP stuff and the frame to be an absolute workhorse. Command with power pitchers is always the last thing to come. Obviously some never figure it out but I'm confident in Newcomb. Also, I...

Yea I definitely disagree about "life savings". Peraza and Wood were tradable pieces. But it just blew me away how that was the target. Especially with how crazy this offseason was you don't think Wood being controllable wouldn't have brought in more just by himself in a deal? Peraza would...

Would love nothing more then for Olivera to prove to be a solid bat for us. I will never understand the trade given the state of the team but I'm over it. Hope he exceeds expectations and becomes a solid #5 hitter for us for years
