Obviously hard to deal a Cy Young candidate and true ace like Kluber. But I also wouldn’t have dealt him if I wasn’t sold on the return.
Pineda is a solid rotation arm for me for the last 2 years of his deal along with numerous prospects I’m happy to add lead by Gleyber Torres. It’s a risk, but with a tough division and philly somehow doing whatever he needs to do every night to win every game lol coupled with the Braves not feeling their team is as strong as some others in the NL, we make this move to Get younger and hope we hit on some of this upside. I also think it has more upside than what I paid for Kluber so I look at it as making a profit in a way.
I’m not in total sell mode by any means. But others can go as well. Looking to make more deals.
