I didn't like the Shields trade when it happened, but it is what it is. Moore needed to save his job and he apparently did enough to do that so his personal mission was accomplished.
Pretty sad that we gave up our best offensive prospect and "threw in" players who Tampa turned into valuable pieces. You can look back at it now and it's even worse than it was then. This team is an offensive joke and on top of that this pitching staff would be good without Shields. You'd add Odorizzi back and odds are there's more than enough money to pay Santana without the Shields or Davis contracts.
Of course it's hindsight but tons of people hated this trade when it happened so is it really hindsight?
