    Mateo is batting .198 in AAA
    Fowler had a knee injury that may have been career threatening
    and Kaprielian had tommy john surgery


    Gray had great years in 2014 and 2015..not good years..great years. 3.55 era in 2017 was not bad either.
    But yeah lets play monday night QB when talking about a trade after the fact especially when the three players have all of 15 at bats and zero innings pitched in the majors

    Tanaka trying to hit was amusing.

    They should really have the DH in both leagues already. 26 man roster too.
