Don't want to come off as a complainer - because I believe Klentak has done more than most teams over the past 2 years - but I hope we're not done.
There's no way we're going to compete with the Gnats, Bravos or even possibly the Mutts if this is it.
I'm hoping a trade for Bryant is coming for the hot corner (I get it's scary being his free agency situation isn't straightened out) - and we get another starting pitcher for the middle of the rotation so we can slide Arrieta and Eflin down and move Velasquez and Pivetta to the pen.
If Bryant gets traded to the Braves (rumored) and Donaldson goes to the Gnats (departure of Rendon) - our rivals just keep getting stronger as we're standing pat hoping a kid - Alec Bohm (called up from the minors) will rescue us in the middle of the season.
