It's here... final few hours.
My Tribe made a big move. I've got mixed feelings. It was best long-term since they weren't going to pay Bauer next year anyway. They certainly filled the one big hole they had and is so hard to find - RH pop. Unfortunately, they are also suddenly vulnerable with the rotation as far as any chance of a deep run this year. With Carrasco out indefinitely, they now need either a Kluber get-healthy and return-to-form or a Salazar get-hot-quick, both of which are longshots to varying degrees for this year.
I'd really like to see them shock everyone and pick up Madbum... perfect rental, numbers down a bit this year but velo and performance coming back as of late, proven playoff and series winner, and, with the other moves made, would thrust the team into the conversation with the favorites and fill seats. They have plenty of chips in the farm system to where giving up a strong prospect or two won't kill them. Clevenger, Bieber and Madbum could be plenty formidable with Kluber, Plesac and Salazar as candidates for the other playoff rotation spot.
