Yup got a bunch of OF's and a weaker infield...had to do something about that. Love Alvy's power/speed combo and been wanting a long-term solution at 3B for quite some time

damn Ervin is solid too...great defense and arm....he should be able to steal 50 as well
bad for shale

You would think as active as shale is...He would see that people constantly shitted on Alvarez on the boards.

shale is always too quick to react to criticism.....people shitted on him not trading and he took the fucking bait.

He gives up too much here but what I don't understand is why trade for ML ready talent when you your team isn't close and you aren't in danger of having your pick dropped.

He has to live with it but trades like these make or break your rebuild.

Vogelsong is almost MLB ready...look at his homers....he has more value than Alvarez alone, especially with the age difference.

its fine to make trades during a rebuild but be smart about them. His reasoning for this trade makes it worst, since Alvarez is strictly a DH.

Alvarez is gonna rake in Coors, but nobody wanted that scrub...Kobe has been shopping him for the past 2 seasons.
