Lol, we may have gotten 3 actual major league players out of it and two of those came in the kimbrel trade. And what starting pitchers did we get the 24 years old from the yankees that has not been above A ball nor had below a 4.35 era or the one from the A’s that has major control issues but does at least throw upper 90’s may be a bullpen guy. Maybe the Mets of, but his bat is amjor weakness but hey he’s 19 so there’s that. And the giants player we got for Bryant is a typical major league power guy in that he a .230 hitter. And none of these guys are having success in A ball, so yea good luck.

You have to understand that all minor leaguers missed a year of development with Covid. So some are still a class behind

Four of the guys are already slotted in the Cubs top 11 prospects.

Madrigal is a 3-4 WAR player over a full season.

Heuer has already pitched in the show.

For trading a bunch of expirings, it wasn’t all that bad
