yeah i'm not advocating they trade one of their SPs (you need those guys if you're going to have any chance in a postseason series).
On the pitching staff, they've also been horrible at times. I'd hang onto the SPs personally, but can understand them moving one if you get a big deal thrown at you given Ryan and Ober are both in their last years of their deals (IIRC). In the pen, I'd imagine they'll get some looks for Duran as well.
Bux I only bring up because he's finally healthy, hits, defends, and can steal bases, all of which are super valuable in the postseason. He's someone I could see them selling high on given he's healthy and in part because its felt like we've had no interest in trying to spend to contend.
TBH, I'd be 100% ok they're at .500 or so and want to sell out to accumulate talent for once and go for it. I'd imagine they'll mostly stand pat and go with the same roster that will flirt with the postseason. I don't see a dominant ace consistently of our pitchers (though we have some guys who are very good) as you usually see with those WCs that go on a run, or that guy who for whatever reason hits the playoffs and then is lights out (Wheeler for Philly in their last couple runs). Baseball is funny that way though you're totally right in that you just have to get in
