Brewers got Bickford and Susac, woah

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

The insane relief pitching market continues to turn.

Celebrations galore at brewerfan.net.

That is quite the price to pay for Wil Smith. I can't believe how ridiculous the market for relievers has become. As someone who is against trading quality assets for relievers, this is both painful and hilarious.

Bickford is the Giants top prospect and 65th overall. Yikes.

Bickford is the Giants top prospect and 65th overall. Yikes.

And Susac is a young, starting caliber catcher who was a top 50 prospect.

Susac meh but cant believe Bickford...


BTW Bickford is not the Giants top prospect

It's Christian Arroyo.

I was referencing MLB.com's list. Don't know the consensus around here.

Either way you put it, it's a steep price to pay for Smith

Nice for the Giants to at least get a reliever. Kind of a hefty price to pay but I'll take it.

 

[Reality Check]

This year's market, overall, seems to be out of whack.

 

[Terry Yake]

wow, what a move by the brewers

bickford is legit

 

[AdmiralsFan24]

Love this deal so much. Going to be so disappointed if Smith is the only reliever we move with the market the way it is.

 

[Voight]

Don't like it. We didn't really need another reliever especially at that price but it is what it is.

RPs bringing back massive value this deadline.
