i'll counter by saying

Meyer, Goodwin, Karns, Flores/Leon, Espinosa, moore

Why do the Rays want a 25 year old who just finished Single A? Why do they want our third string catchers who belong in Triple A? These are nothing prospects.

Even Meyer and Goodwin are long term projects. Meyer still translates better to the bullpen. Goodwin's ceiling BJ Upton/Chris Young. And he was clearly overmatched in Double A.

The Dbacks are going to be offering Upton and Miley. The Rangers will be offering Profar/Andrus, Ott/Perez, and something else. These C and B- type prospects are simply not going to cut it. Even with Espinosa, who has regressed BTW.
