How did AZ make out on the Greinke deal?

I know Rojas has been doing well lately, but haven't heard much on the rest of that package

Just curious as in how it might affect a deal now. As you know, when a FO gets the better of another, it plays in future talks

Corbin Martin was already hurt so that was their risk. Beer has reached the big leagues but not fully established yet. Rojas is a decent versatile regular as expected. I think we all knew then Bukkake was a bust but that's who they wanted.

They'd be dealing with Click now and not Luhnow while having Strom there to tell them what pitchers they should and should not take.

Beer has been up and down, he sucked in his big league action this year, but I think he's still their 1B/DH of the future after they trade Walker.

Rojas has been a positive WAR player basically in an everyday role the last two seasons. He has really improved his K% this year.

Bukauskas got a call up last year and then battled injuries. He just started pitching again and is still a likely bullpen piece.

Corbin Martin looks like another bullpen piece with maybe a future in the rotation, but he hasn't been impressive in his big league action.

Still, all 4 guys have reached the majors with one solid contributor so far. That's looking like a good return.

Turrible.

It's been 3 years and Rojas is the only one who's made any contributions.

Rojas 264 games since 2019: .283/.335/.384

Corbin Martin missed 2020 after TJ, battled some other injuries he's pitched 11 games for the Dbacks with a 7.08 ERA, 25 walks in 34 innings.

JB Bukauskus was called up last year as a reliever and had a 7.79 ERA. He's missed all of this season with a shoulder injury and is just starting rehab assignment

Seth Beer made the opening day roster this year and hit well for about 10 games before he cratered and got sent down in mid May.


ETA: I say terrible but they got one out of four minor league prospects who turned into a regular major league contributor. I guess that's actually pretty good.
