Im not arguing that Donavan needed traded, agree that probably has reached his peak, however thatnleaves us with no real veteran! And who are we getting??? Prospects that have never proven them selves!
Arenado, we are paying 20 million for him to play on another team, and didnt get anything.
Gray it was like 10 million to play on another team, and didnt get no one
Contreas pretty sure we are paying him to be on another team and did get anything!
Also lost our number 1 starter, who was never a true number one. Lost all our veterans to help lead the youngins along the way. And didnt get 1 person who has proved himself. Sent to the cardinals who has yet to be seen if we can develop talent. Look at gorman and walker, one started off 13 game hitting streak spreading the ball all over the field, what did management do? Send him back down to work on launch angle! Now he cant hit him self out of a wet paper sack. The other can hit 1 home run a mile out of every ten at bats, however strikeout the other 9! Tell me the last pitcher that came up from our farm system that has made anything? Libby was suppose to be an ace, wrongo! Palante another great thing along with Thompson with the curves they throw! Pshhh cant develope young players. I hope the new hires in the farm system can do that for us, because upper management wont! Maybe yadi can suit up and at least teach one of 6 young catchers something..
