ramirez's stuff looked pretty good there

The trade that gets Daniels fired.

 

It may. That trade looked like a Cubs win at the time, when Ramirez wasn't yet a part of the deal and Olt was seen as potentially being irreparably damaged goods.

 

Right now, it looks like an absolute fleecing. Now with the injuries the Rangers are dealing with, I'm betting Daniels is wishing he had that one back.

 

And getting Hendricks and Villanueva for Dempster is looking better than it did at the time, too. Daniels would do well to stop doing business with Hoyer/Epstein. The fact that neither Dempster nor Garza were retained (not to mention that they didn't perform particularly well) and they didn't get any compensation has just got to be salt in the wound.

Yes, he already publicly admitted last week that it was not a smart trade on his part and very shortsighted.
