Although, when you consider that by giving up those 5 prospects, they got 3 upgrades at starting pitcher, and a big time upgrade at short stop, that's pretty impressive. Than consider that they didn't lose any bench strenght, and if anything made themselves more versatile with a LH hitting catcher, and a real speed demon in Bonaficio.
Really most of those prospects were not in the system 3 years ago, so in the coming time that's been bought be getting good veteran players to play in the majors, I'm confident that they'll be able to replenish the pool while providing the fans with what should be a substantially better product on the field.
