You don't think Oakland got a good return? Most of analysis I have read, think Atlanta gave up a ton.
I think Pache is a lighter hitting version of Robles. I hope he proves me wrong, but he looks like a 4th OFer.
Langeliers was the prize, but I dont understand why Oakland wanted him so bad. If he's not MLB ready now, he will be by the end of this season. Sean Murphy hasnt even entered arbitration yet.
Estes is nice, but young. TINSTAAPP.
I dunno, if Pache can hit that changes things, but right now he looks like a slower version of Billy Hamilton.
Maybe "gave away" is too strong, but I really think other teama would have given up a better package than that.
