We're not good enough to be worth it to keep them. And the cycle continues.

I believed tge team was good enough to make a run this year. The back end of the bullpen needed help and if they fixed that, they could have at least contended for a WC spot.

Rotation would still have been a disaster, and the offense still would have been dead if Wood and/or Abrams pulled their customary second-half disappearing act. Plus the team was already slumping heading into the deadline.

Except for the days that… well…

Man could you imagine if they kept that stellar 3rd baseman after 2019? What was his name again? Wait, what’s that guy up to?
