Yeah dude. You mentioned Hamilton... getting him over Greinke, although more expensive, was also pretty bad with his history of injuries and drug habits. Losing Skaggsy was hard. He was a solid starter for us but I always thought he had more in him just as he was about to hit his prime. It's just a tragedy what happened. Really glad that they played their best ball pitching a no-hitter in his tribute.
Me too. Gonna miss that dude with his unreal defense. I always respect the fact that Arte spends money to improve the team but I hate the fact that he meddles too much into doing bad decisions. The Vernon Wells trade, for example, is the WORST. It fucks my brain a lot seeing Trout put up historic seasons while playing on a bad team for most of his career except for that one year when we had the best record in baseball then got swept immediately afterward. Honestly, Trout being in the MVP race every year is basically my world series (which is both funny and sad at the same time). So aside from hopefully making the playoffs, I hope Trout wins MVP again and Shohei can put up a healthy and excellent season that could even rival Mike for the MVP (basically his 2016 MVP stats in Japan lol).
Thank god for that. Haha!

This dude is ridiculous... He's like Cabrera and Votto from a decade ago but he could be even better than them with his age.
Oh! It'd be unfair. They're all still great hitters despite what you mentioned (Bryce has become really underrated). That would be like me imagining Greinke, Corbin and Clevinger on my team but they don't have nearly as much star power that Harper, Rendon and Soto would have had they played together.
