Compare that to Murphy, who, including this update, is a career .288/.373/.458 batter, with 100 more homers, and is putting up his worst qualifying season ever. His 2015 slash is as of August 30 merely eight points higher than Quebell's. Given that we threw three prospects with at least some upside into the deal, this one has to go down as a net loss even now.
Adrian! I knew he had one of my kids' names and I forgot the right one.... Yeah, I did not want to see him go, but I don't think the trade affected the current season much one way or the other..... The prospects, of course, may be regretted later or not....
