    I like the move we made.
    Disappointed that we didn't get relief help or someone who can hit lefties

    god DAMN, Giants gave up Matt Duffy and Lucius Fox? Shit. I know they've struggled but thats two quality guys.

    I think the Giants added good pieces though. I like W. Smith and although I think Moore isn't very good, it's an upgrade over their current back end garbage

    Rich Hill is our ace when Kershaw is out. He is better than Greinke this year.
    And his injury is a blister, cmon Blue thats not a real injury but a wear and tear thing thats normal.
    Now if he becomes Ismael Valdez with the incurable thumb blister all season then you may be right.
    Reddick is a true platoon player. Those are not bad. Guys who can hit really well against righties but suck against lefties are ok. At least you know what to do with them for sure. Thats why we have benches.

    Brian Kenny panned the Moore deal and defended our deal from Rosehouches assessment. We won't know shit until these guys get on the field.

    WE FUCKING GET PICKED ON WAY TOO MUCH.

    Reddick is one of the best hitters in the game 70% of the time. That's not insignificant. And, Rich Hill has been one of the best pitchers in 2016 when healthy, and I feel better about a blister injury then any bone or muscle thing. It might not work and definitely has risk, but again: Got one of the better outfielders traded and one of the better pitchers traded.

    That Moore trade is about as bad as giving Samardjiza 90MM, possibly worse

    Looks like Shaw didn't go, Santos instead. Where does he rank in their system?

    I think he meant for the past month they have put up close to the same production.
    And are both good runners in the OF with great arms.
    Lots of similarities. Of course Puig is a lot better vs lefties than Reddick is, but thats not saying much because Reddick is atrocious there and Puig is just bad.
    On the bright side Puig is not that bad against right handers. Maybe both of these guys should be platoon players, hell platoon the whole OF.

    I mean I get what the Giants did but that's a lot to give up for marginal upgrades.
