Dbacks outfield defense gets worse in a big park. Good

Also keep a bat away from colorado. Good for them

They better hope he stays healthy and i hope those prospects freakin hit lol

Interesting way for you to spin someone in your division picking up a top outfielder for next to nothing

better than losing him for nothing but this team needs a real rebuild. should never have kept management in house.

My fucking guy. I'm sad.
 
 
I hope he gets a ring and doesn't sign with an AL team in the offseason.

That's not the reason they're set to be terrible but ok.
 
Their broken draft philosophy, reluctance to spend money in the international market, and their overspending in the 2015 offseason is what ended this run.

I'm not gonna defend it because I know it's not a good contract, but I think a lot of that was Illitch and he didn't really care about paying a bunch of money during the 2020's when he knew he probably wasn't gonna be around. His shortsightedness with Miggy doesn't really bother me, because he's the a top 5 Tiger and the best since Kaline, its the overpaying for guys like V-Mart and Zimmermann, and the neglect for the farm system that's really gonna fuck this team up.

So none of the prospects Avila got in this deal are top 10 in the organization according to MLB Pipeline. And our farm system is horrible.
 
 
 
I'm dying.

The other thread you say it Better not be Rockies or DBacks...
 
Trade happens and all of a sudden it's a bad deal? 

Any time a team you can add a bat like JD Martinez it's a good idea.
