This is me talking out my rear end, but I went to many Rattler games when Green/Lawrie were on the team, and I was more impressed with Green. I loved that dude. Though I've heard he's struggled since then, he was always one of those guys you think wouldn't get out. Lawrie was like a .250 hitter.
If we're giving up two McClendon types, then this deal is highly successful (assuming K-Rod's option won't vest). Amazing. Compare it to the Linebrink deal.
SS is the only need I saw before bullpen. But, that being said, I think SS is a FAR bigger need than relief pitching. If Yuni B is our SS in August, then acquiring Marcum/Greinke/K-Rod was for nothing. He's, sadly, that terrible.
Honestly, Heath Bell would do more bad than good. It would piss off our long-term closer by making him set-up, and it would take resources away from more pressing needs (see: Shortstop).
Lately, I thought Roenicke has made some solid managerial moves. This series has been marvelous, IMO. (although I was a bit salty last night not seeing Braun up with 2 out in the 9th, but I don't think that's Roencike's fault)
