    Yeah i will be that guy.
    You're gonna be that guy who thinks "can never have enough pitching" applies to every circumstance?

    Grandal and a prospect comparable to Zack Lee isn't worth Kemp.

    maybe. maybe not. Wisler's a better prospect than Chris Anderson and becomes the #4 guy on our farm, ahead of the younger Holmes.

    we're talkin about a guy in Wisler that had an 2014 ETA, so he could very well break spring training with the big club as our #4.

    Kemp is going to drop 30+ bombs next year while playing a solid RF. 30 ain't that old and I'd take the remaining 5 years of Kemp easily over the package we are getting.

    Who the heck is going to hit for this team?

    Lee and Reed get shit on daily..Lee is currently being shit on right now by Thinkblue. the upgrade quality is evident.

    do your homework on Wisler. he's currently better than everybody you have listed there, other than Urias, and you're more likely to see him in the bigs before Urias.

    Cool, Max Scherzer, Jon Lester, James Shields, David Price, Johnny Cueto and probably others can all be had for only cash in the next couple of years.

    What big bats are out there?

    That just doesn't seem like a good deal to me.So, we'd be trading for a catcher who is a career .245 hitter, a possible fourth starter, and maybe something else?

    I hope I'm wrong, but that just doesn't seem like a good trade to me. I just don't trust Puig and Agon to keep the offense afloat. Especially since we don't have a SS.

    This just doesn't seem right.

    So every guy who goes into a hitter friendly environment and struggles (peripherals be damned) is now comparable to Zach Lee? Got it.

    none... not only that, but the 2 bats we are giving away arent wanted by anyone (on a market that has no bats)...

    seriously, I'm about to have a stroke...

    I know nothing of Wisler but you did compare him to Zach Lee and he sucks. So that made it seem to me that he is very much a throw in.

    and appropriate value is what you get offered at the end of the day..Kemp is clearly not being valued around the league the way that a lot of Dodger fans are valuing him.



    the Padres' #2 prospect to be exact

    the worst part of this is that it would turn a decent/average starter into a once a week guy in AJ... unless they want to move Grandal to the OF, which I dont think makes much sense then...
