This Duvall trade is a perfect example of what I try to tell people about "trading for prospects". Sometimes it is just spinning the wheels.
We traded a nice young (27) starting pitcher in Mike Leake (3.87 ERA in 5 years with Reds) for Duvall and another prospect. Now we still need starting pitching and we are trading Duvall for prospects.
At some point you have to keep enough of your talented players together long enough to make a run.
