Diamondbacks Are Winning the Castillo-Trumbo Deal
The Arizona Diamondbacks are taking a beating off the field this week. The specter of the team not being able to reach .500 in 11 opportunities will be more scrutinized each time they get within a game of that number. There is also the continuing fallout regarding the trade of Touki Toussaint, which we at venomstrikes discussed in a roundtable post. It has easily been the most controversial trade that the regime of Tony LaRussa and Dave Stewart have made and the consensus is the D’backs were hosed. So how about we talk about a deal also made in June that has been an absolute steal for Arizona. This transaction should be discussed just as much as the one they are getting clobbered for.
