Mish: Marcell Ozuna Traded to St. Louis Cardinals

[sports24/7]

Awful. You have to hope they know what they’re doing with Alcantara, but this looks like a pretty shitty deal. This is why I wanted quality over quantity. Now the system is flooded with a bunch of 4/5s, a couple of guys with 2/3 potential, but warts, and zero hitters. And this is after trading three all-stars all in their primes.

Sierra is SUCH a Marlins type player.

So we didn’t get a Top 3 Cardinals prospect for Marcel Ozuna?

Did we get a Top 5?

Sierra and Alcantara are both top 5 in the Cardinals system according to fangraphs.

You are grasping at straws. This is by no means what they should have been able to get for Ozuna maybe Stanton with the contract issues but not Ozuna.

Remember when we didnt want Loria's guys doing the blowing up? lol

You are way too excited for a fan of the team getting rid of everybody

iffy return for ozuna. hope that the new scouts know what theyre doing. this trade pretty much entirely rides on if alcantara turns out to be what his potential isl

Maybe the most hilarious part of this trade is that they seemed to take less value, and didn't even throw in one of their high priced relievers like Tazawa.
