Rockies Trade:SP Bieber, Shane, $0.3m (P-n/a)
I very much feel like this is an overpayment at this stage for Shane (don't call me Justin) Bieber, but I'm looking for a SP upgrade and this does it... Albeit if Mikolas returns to last year's form, it's pretty even in the SP department and I'm just losing all the other assets.
Gallen is still a huge return in this deal for COL, as is Winker even though he's struggled a bit this year. His first 2 seasons he was very good. He's still young as well and under team control for a few more years at the min. salary, same as Mikolas.
In no way shape or form do I see this trade as "detrimental" to COL's roster, current or future.
I know that I'm paying a steep price to get just one player, but I've been bugging Brian about the Biebs for most of the season, so he's making me pony up.
