I don't recall but wasn't Gasser a soft tosser when the trade happened?
Ruiz was a "who?" "Why"
It was a weak trade at the time. Gasser has improved his velocity(if I remembered correctly) and made his debut recently.
Ruiz is a stud in the minors, dud in the Majors. Until he does something, will never understand Oakland trading for him, nor Atlanta parting with Contreras for his value.
Like mentioned above, they could have traded Hader that offseason and gotten similar value.
Padres have a 4th round pick to add to their side of deal. One that would have been end 1st for Milw I believe.
Hader was his dominating self last season. Gasser is still where I'm tracking the w/l on Hader trade.
There were other Padre prospects the Brewers should have asked for over Ruiz wasn't there at that time?
