True,

All of us probably just have an emotional connection to Phillips because the farm system is all we've had the past few years.

Only thing I don't like is Phillips. I believe that we will win!

Reed would have killed me most.

Hmm...could Fiers be flipped right to SD in a Ross deal?

Maybe we'll find out that Will Smith was included

Phillips will come back to bite us. Best 5 tool player on the farm. Him and springer roaming RF and CF would have been ridiculous

Will Fiers even break the damn rotation? Dude has an ERA near four in the NL.

Wrong. What was dealt does not change the definition of a rental in deadline trade terms.

All in all, I'm happy.

Bolsters the lineup for this season, which is what we've been asking for.

I like Fiers. But I don't know if he fits us. Could be flipped again now or offseason.

I'd rather be bitching about giving up prospects to better the team for a run than loose 100+ games

Again no... Either you are being a subtle troll or a dick.

By definition, it isn't a rental if you wanna gloat and say bad trade then just say it.


To everyone , Gomez is proven. I would like to keep Phillips too, but maybe they think Ted Tucker is going g to be faat, along with Daz

They are making a move for now

I mean, you gotta give something up to get something. Gomez is ours through next season with a relatively inexpensive contract and Fiers is having a decent season, which gives us depth in the rotation. I like Phillips as much as the next guy, but it's not like he's a sure thing. And like Les said, the draft gave us great OF depth in the farm system.

A lineup with Altuve, Gomez, Springer, Correa, Lowrie, Tucker, etc. is pretty formidable.

This trade makes me want to throw up. I wanted Gomez, Fiers does nothing for me. I assume that means we're out on Tyson Ross. The inclusion of Fiers really makes me question this deal. It drove up the price and he's not much better than what we've got.


That's a TON of prospects to give up.

@Brewers
OF Carlos Gomez, RHP Mike Fiers, International Slot 76 to Hou for OF Brett Phillips, OF Domingo Santana, LHP Josh Hader & RHP Adrian Houser.

We got International Slot 76! I hear he's a badass.

Yeah I really don't get the Fiers part. He's not much better than Feldman.
