we are way more than a few pieces from competing. Why buy?

Honestly, we should be trying to dump players for extra picks (which we did with Godchaux). I imagine we had a phone call or two for Rattler and Wilson.

I think Reid needs to be on the block. I doubt anyone actually wants him but hopefully someone sees the name on the back of the jersey and his past accolades and not what he has done on the field this year.

I would praise Loomis daily if we were able to get rid of Ruiz.

You have to find one that you view as a multi-year player at a reasonable cost (both salary and draft picks).

That's just not going to happen more than likely.

You can't rebuild a team all at once no matter how impatient you are.

No it isn’t. We’re being a professional organization and building the right way.

You’re advocating buying at the most expensive market of the year. Great job “mod”

You think trade deadline is the most expensive market of the year instead of the offseason where fa players can literally pick where they want to go.

Your take is dumb. Its ok. All this shite talking you're doing in between is just your immaturity creeping out. Let it go bro.

You saying it isn’t doesn’t make it so. The pool of available players is small and contenders are taxed as so in the compensation they give.

Maybe if you type it out that it isn’t in all caps?

You're comparing two different things though

Trade deadline expensive for picks because it's a gotta have it to make a run, whereas fa is just cap space

The issue is you have to give up draft capital to acquire someone at the trade deadline.

FA may be more expensive as far as salary, depending on the situation, but you aren’t losing the draft capital.

Almost everyone traded at the deadline was older and/or on a one year rental contract. No is trading youngish building blocks at the trade deadline unless you’re willing to pay a fortune in draft capital.

We cant draft for shite, and if you want to be competitive next year, having a proven corner is cheaper to take the hit on now.

I just don't think it's a bad thing to not be buyers when the wheels will fall off if something happens like Shough goes down (McCoy already out).

If we were sitting at 6-2 it might be a different story
