I had him last year on my fantasy team and I traded him for Ryan Zimmerman when he came back. So I didn't really watch many of his starts after the 5-0 start.
I thought he could be a cy young winner when I traded him and talked him up as much.

I used to all aboard the Cahill bandwagon, but it is just a trainwreck now. I hope the change of scenery could help, but going from Oakland to Chase Field is never a plus.
The two guys I thought would develop into aces (back before they were successful in the bigs) were Latos and Cahill. Hopefully, I can at least get one of those two right.
Nice steal on the trade, even though Zimmerman was disappointing last year.

Damn I'm leading four offensive categories and tied for second in the other. Didn't think that was possible after my horrible draft. Too bad its just the first week.

I feel the same way about my pitching. I have to assume my bats will come around at some point.

Ditto, Robbie Cano has been awful so far.

I'm not in last place, so I consider this season a WIN so far.
ETA: Haven't checked this morning... I'm not in last place am I?

My team made a push out of last place last night! Finally getting some saves and HR's helped.

Time for Morneau to break out & not make that trade look so bad

definitely liking E-5 so far. I was going to have Danny Valencia as my starting 3B 
Good to see Morneau hitting a homerun today. Hopefully the deal works out for the both of us

I'm really high on EE as well this year, JMs power upside was just too much for me to pass up. GLTY2

My pitchers got fricking shelled today.
I dropped 7 spots in ERA and 10 in WHIP. 
At least I shot up 7 places in saves.
ETA: Someone trade me an OF.

I can trade Moreland, Hunter or David Murphy. Looking at your roster I don't really see anything I could want, not exactly a big fan of Nolasco.
If you think you got a deal that can work and would want any of those guys as fill ins until Morse/CC get back then I'm all ears.
It ain't much I know

I have better pitchers for sale, such as Mat Latos.
Barry, could I eliminate Werth and Morse from the deal to interest you? Offer sent.
