Thank goodness AA never got too high on himself and is counting him off-limits. Although the James Shields deal was pretty lopsided, I think that sets the bar pretty high in these deals where team now think they can get something near that amount. I can see JPA and Gose going all things considered. I really would not be happy with Gose going, but if Lind is being packaged too, along with a 2 year contract extension being signed with Dickey, maybe this deal becomes a little more digestable. If not, call the Mets bluff and hope to get the guy next season if they're so inclined to do so. Again, the Shields deal, I think drove up the price of 3rd starters.
