as long as it doesn't take us out of the harper sweepstakes, i really love the idea of addressing the pitching 100% through free agency this offseason and collecting draft picks for both Jake and Davis. especially with a potential frontline guy like Darvish, and even more especially if they buy into the pitch tipping thing and feel it's a pretty easy fix. i'm not against trading from the major league team at some point, but putting the team in a position where they don't need to do this for, hopefully, the next couple of years is really appealing. i'm also pretty worried about Lester going forward, so being in a spot where you're not relying on him quite as heavily is really important. a pitcher like Cobb doesn't accomplish that for me. Darvish clearly does.
