So...Beavan can pitch for this team...why exactly do we need to hold onto Bedard? Or Vargas?
I don't want to move Pineda even though I do understand the logical reasons for doing so...maybe he's the one who'll burn out and you can get a gigantic haul for him..I get that. But if we can get something good for Bedard and run Beavan in his rotation spot now...then we can trade Vargas next season just as Paxton or Hultzen is pitching his way onto the ballclub and then we can trade Pineda when he gets a little closer to his arb years as Hultzen or Paxton jumps in there.
Point is...with our depth, there is ZERO excuse for ever...EVER...losing one of our great starters to free agency for no gain. THey should all bring back juicy bats in trade.
