Ouch. Seems like Soren Petro is the only person on earth that liked that trade.

Blue Jays signed Mark DeRosa for 1 year, $750k, with a club option for 2014. That would have been a good signing for the Royals, because the dude can play all over the field and he's a decent bat. Very cheap as well. Report I read said that he just wanted to be the 25th man on the roster.

D'backs trade Justin Upton to Braves. Their outfield is now Justin Upton, BJ Upton, and Jason Heyward.
Braves get Justin Upton and third baseman Chris Johnson from D'backs D'Backs get third baseman/outfielder Martin Prado, starting pitcher Randall Delgado, minor-league shortstop Nick Ahmed, minor-league pitcher Zeke Spruill and minor-league infielder Brandon Drury. Good deal for both sides. |

The alternative was not to go buy some other pitcher, the alternative was to presume that 2014 would be the year to go for it, with Myers firmly entrenched in RF. |

Playoffs. If DM traded Myers for .500, he's one stupid SOB. |

Arizona's return boils down to this: One year of Martin Prado, six years of a fifth starter in Randall Delgado, two fringy prospects, and one non-prospect. If that sounds like a good deal to you, I have some beachfront property in Phoenix to sell you. |

Most people don't equate "crash and burn" with an 80-something win season. |
Fair enough. But, in my view, the Royals should be in the playoff hunt this year. I won't flip my shit if we're eliminated in the final few games, but if we're, for all intents, out of it at the break, DM needs to be fired.
It's win or GTFO time. |
