Damn Matt Duffy plus Lucius Fox for Matt Moore. Hmmm......we'll see how this goes. We gave up our #15 2015 draft pick Phil Bickford and Susac for a reliever which I think is quite a bit.

yeah, liked both Duffy and Susac.
Duffy another homegrown infield guy, but too bad that he got injured and was struggling to adjust in his sophomore season. Obviously he was really wanted by Tampa Bay. glad he'll still be starting there, and next to a great example of a SS in Longoria.
Susac, same thing, too bad injuries took away--what, last nearly two years? now that Brown is doing well, it seems that his path back to majors was blocked...so at least happy he'll also have the chance to make it in the bigs.
with regards to the Minor leaguers, we lost our top pitching prospect, as well as among others--Lucius Fox--the Bahamian teenager that we signed for a $6M signing bonus...and thus blocks us from International spending for the next two years! Sheeeeyat!
Hope that these moves solidify the team and help right the ship in this post-All Star break...
