    That's awful. I would rather keep Jake Bloss.

    There needs to be more to that deal. Bloss is a really good prospect. To trade him for a rental who has been awful for 2 months would be pretty bad.

    i wanted Fedde but Kikuchi is nasty when hes on. Hes throwing harder this year too, up to 97 on his fastball. Hopefully we can work out his strengths and roll on.

    Bad trade imo. Would rather keep Bloss than trade him for a rentral who is currently struggling.

    There's got to be more to this....third team or more players. Swapping a current SP with several years of control for a rental makes zero sense and doesn't add depth to the rotation.

    All those years of team control from a guy showing real promise for a rental...
