My guess is Longoria

Also, don't we have to give the Cards a ton of credit here? They had the winning offer for Stanton and he rejected it. But, the winning deal. The next significance piece that fell fell to us -- Ozuna.

Cards are doing what they had to do. Good job, Mo and Girsch.

I do. I said I'd give credit if they did what I wanted them to, and they did.

I'm going to probably call him Pablo by mistake about a dozen times.

My guess is that managers are weirdos who think that mediocre guys are significant acquisitions, and it'll be like an NRI for someone in the vein of Daniel Descalso.

i still want to see what they gave up before i give them TOO much credit...but they have many needs and filled one (and another with gregerson. i know nothing about the guy from japan), so kudos to that

I like Ozuna and the team definitely need his power but I'm worried about overpaying for his 2017 career year. I'm anxious to find out what they gave up.

I'll wait and see what we gave up, I have a fear we overpaid.

Definitely seems to be a characteristic of Matheny and TLR.
