Is that good? Fister's a pretty solid pitcher

Well, you make your own opinion: We apparently get Steve Lombardozzi, Ian Krol, and a prospect back in the deal.

My opinion is that if it was Rendon we were getting back, I'd like it a lot better.

And yes, our infield is good now. But trading Fister for a utilityman and a AA pitcher? Not the greatest return, IMO.

Clearly Dombrowski sees Porcello and Smyly as long-term solutions in the rotation.

I generally have faith in DD's trade wizardry, but I can't say I like or even understand this deal at all.

I just don't like it. It's like, we traded one of the better pitchers in the league (dare I say top 25?) for spare parts. Lousy spare parts, at that. WTF, DD?

Doug Fister is absolutely top 25. The only way we don't lose this deal is if Robbie Ray is the next John Smoltz.

Yeah, I just saw that.

I hope he does well for Oakland. But he has been inconsistent. Although, he did have a 4.00 ERA last year. So I hope he does well in 2014.

Yep, Jim Johnson for Jemile Weeks.

I'm pretty happy about that trade as well. Hopefully Johnson's success carries over to the A's.

Of course 50 saves for a 0.221 hitter
