I dislike losing Moore but don't hate it IN THE RIGHT DEAL. IMO if we're all-in, Jerry's going to acquire a club-controlled BETTER SP. Call it an SP core of Pax/Gonz/Newbie, with Leake and Felix bringing up the rear for now, and Erasmo in the wings. Moore's not coming into play this year. Maybe not next year either; certainly not to displace one of the top 3 or (sigh) Felix.

Colome is a homerun. Sugar, Colome, Cook, and lots of really solid pieces after that. What a bullpen!

Span over Gamel I don't like. I really, really don't like taking Gamel out of the rhythm he's establishing. That said he's a decent piece, and we'll see how much the OBP fades... but I do notice Jerry's CtheZ in full effect as BB outpaces Ks here so far this year. I don't hate the player, but I don't love him either. If injury hits NOW, we have enough starters to keep going... and I do maintain that 2019 we may see the M's consider a Cano to DH move (in a post-suspension context) if the management doesn't fall in love with Vogelbach in short order. So if Dee is out of the outfield rotation essentially for the rest of the season but also for the future, Span at least gives you another option in 2019.
