We have some crap on 40 man roster. Plus wasn't Iglesias and Cobb on the 40 man?

Getting something is better than getting nothing.

Yes, but now we have some crap and some Junk.

I mean, if we let them walk or trade them for minor league fodder..... who gives a crap?

The minor league fodder has a chance of turning into something.

Go back to 2019.  Who thought Walsh was much better than a AAAA guy?

In 2016 wouldnt most people think Fletcher a "fodder"

It seems bad to me that in the last 48 hours they’ve oscillated between being buyers and sellers.  It just seems like ridiculous incompetence.  I would be less of a fuck up than Arturo and the gang.  I’m serious. 

They were only “buyers” for help beyond this year.  And the second and third tier pieces they had to sell were not going to get them high impact prospects that could reliably help them in the future, so why fully punt on this year?

All these great prospects being traded is just more proof how much of a sellers market it was. It's too bad that Arte didn't take advantage of this but it was never expected he would so just par the course for this franchise. Now we will have to hope EVERYTHING goes right just to hopefully sniff a playoff spot.

So what is the accurate package?  Many sources said Bart was in the deal.

Conflicting reports!

No they got Lisa and Maggie

[Revad]

So with Heaney gone, does that mean bring up Detmers or Barria.  There must be another move.

That was the original report but looks like they didn't. I edited my post.

Just like Angels legends Tyler Warmoth, Terry Evans, and Dan Briggs, who are real legends and not just three random former angels prospects.

I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around not trading Raisel. I mean, Perry must have gotten good offers. Maybe he set the bar really high, like "55 FV or bust."
