Completely glossed over that part. Machado would definitely be a 3+ month deal and then move on. I know they've grabbed guys like Miller at the deadline but, at some point, they need to go all in instead of kicking the can down the road. It's great to have competitive baseball year in and year out but at some point you'd like to try to win the damn thing.

Prospects are called prospects for a reason. I think we saw that in the Ubaldo Jimenez trade. Pomeranz panned out to be about a .500 pitcher and Alex White never did pan out.

Don't tell that to Footwedge! I remember him bringing the lulz by saying Cleveland lost the trade because Ubaldo was sucking in Baltimore while Pomeranz was doing okay in Oakland or wherever he was before going to Boston. Never mind minor details like how it was Colorado who traded Jimenez for the two and they got virtually no benefit whatsoever from the deal, while Cleveland at least got a very good 1/2 season out of Ubaldo.

I wonder what happened to him? Maybe he can't get out of the hole he dug himself with his man love for Johnny Football?
