We're not giving up that much if you don't value Alex Wood and Peraza as highly as our fans do. Alex Wood/ Peraza didn't get Olivera alone for a reason.
We were always going to trade pitching for bats. We were always going to have to throw in more to get bats because that is what the trade market for bats is demanding. That's all I'm saying
neither guy has the value that our fans believe they do

Going to say this is false. Hart and company fell in love with a guy in the offseason and did whatever it took to get him.
We know what a young controllable arm with a very productive major league tenure is worth. We know what a top 50 mlb offensive prospect is worth. We've all seen similar players moved and the return they've gotten. And I will say it was always more than a 30 year old hitter that hasn't seen big league pitching and could very well not pan out. I like Olivera, but I don't see how anyone doesn't seem this as a clear overpay of talent.
