They tanked this year before it started and the team is trash. Have to trade him now with 1.5 years left so we get a good return. Won’t compete next year so no reason to hold on to him.

Trade itself was very good for us prospects wise, I was concerned they’d botch it but it looks good.

Now continue the fire sale. I don’t care if we don’t win another game this year. Trade Mahle, Drury, etc for as many prospects as we can get to set us up with the best farm system in the league. DONT salary dump moose and lower our prospect return on Mahle.

Ride out the last year of Moose/votto. They won’t sign anybody worth a damn anyway for next year cause we’ll suck anyway. Then 2 years from now we may have hope again in Cincinnati.

Yep

I was afraid they'd end up with a couple 30 year old backups. Seems like they did ok
