I never thought we were in it this year just because of the large gap in true talent levels despite the fact that the Mariner pitching was doing so great.
Its a rebuilding year, but we really need to be adding some long-term pieces at the deadline. There are still too many holes in the OF, we need a DH, and we could also use a long-term C.
Its okay to overpay in short-term pieces for long-term pieces. If Cin offers you Yasmani Grandal for Bedard+League, you take it.
I strongly believe that both League and Aardsma need to be unloaded. Non-elite bullpen arms are a dime a dozen and both will be in their last arbitration years due for salary increases.
League leads the league in SVs and needs to be sold high.
