Darvish…Perez….Mazara…and Odor for Kershaw….Puig and Forsythe….just saying….maybe a couple minor leaguers thrown in to complete blockbuster trade….

1 year of Kershaw is valuable, but nothing even close to that neighborhood.

I would if Kershaw resigned, but otherwise, no.

I figured Blackburn might be able to fetch the Giants a little more, in terms of value, but this will be a good depth move for Texas.
You can never have enough quality AAA depth, and the Rangers made a pretty good move to pick up Blackburn. He is young enough, to still work on a few things, and to still have a shot at being able to reach his somewhat lost potential.
Even if Clayton Blackburn maintains the course he’s on, his floor will be good enough. Ultimately, even without any progression, he could be an unspectacular #5, capable of giving a team a quality start here and there when necessary…
Again though, I just figured more teams would be offering more for Blackburn’s services, but apparently that wasn’t the case. Well, either that, or maybe the Giants just think highly of their return, and really like what they have in Frandy De La Rosa..

well, the giants know their infielders but I was hoping that it would be an outfielder with as many infielders are in the system.
