    We´ll find out what other teams were in on Darvish at some point
    I´m good with giving up Alvarez, so long as it was for a #1 caliber guy
    Team control be damned, I hated the idea of sending Alvarez for a lesser guy like Gray
    They can figure out how to make room for Darvish on the payroll with a clever move or two in the winter

    So no Alvarez, but AJ Alexy instead..a lot of talk about the latter representing a high upside arm for them in trades and it happened

    On pace for 110+ wins, opportunities like this don't come every year. We had to go for it.
    I am good with what we gave up. I didn't want to go into a postseason match up against the Nats Scherzer, Strasburg, and Gonzales with Kershaw, Hill and Wood

    Good thing about Watson is he's been BABIP to death and has not been using his best pitch. He has either the lowest or second lowest exit velocity in the game, so it will be interesting to see how staff works him.

    Also: Lucroy is not a good catcher. Just lots of factors that are leading to bad shit for Yu, but the stuff is all still nasty

    Also remember Arlington is a hitters park. Where as Chavez is a more neutral park

    5.38 era in Texas
    2.49 on the road.
    He will be great in Dodger Blue and not having to face lineups with the DH

    Darvish is a career .214 hitter so he's an improvement over Logan
