Awesome to see them really going for it. The West is strong this year with two obvious exceptions

Bring me your Bickford, Ryan McMahon, Senzatela and Peter Lambert cards

It's official. AZ wins this trade. What a mediocre return.

Dbacks are sending prospects Dawel Lugo, Sergio Alcantara and Jose King to the Tigers in exchange for J.D. Martinez.

This is some of the best news I've heard all year! Think of the amount of home runs he could hit at Chase Field.

We basically got him for nothing. Why would the Tigers accept such a silly offer?

Either way, it's been a LONG time since a D-Backs GM has owned another ball club in a trade.

That's the kind of rental trade that could be worth it, maybe that dry desert air will help keep him healthy and he will resign with them

Nice. The DBax have been hammered for a lot of trades they have done, unfairly at times based on how they actually worked out, but this seems nice off the bat.

When it comes to the D-Backs farm system the only prospects worth a damn to me are Cody Reed, Duplantier, Pavin Smith & Drew Ellis. You can mix & match a package with any of the rest and the value (or lack thereof) looks the same.

Scouts who put together these top 100 lists seem to like Banda but I just don't see it. His name carries some value simply because he makes those lists.
