Can you both knock it off?

Let's discuss the trade like adults.

I dont know why they do these. Whats he suppose to say? Of course hes upset. Dude has established his life there. Now, against his will, he works on the opposite side of the country.

Dual post, to this and the game thread. JD has a contusion, not a break. Day-to-day. Whew!

I know this is based on statistics but I have seen teams get bigger boosts from mid-season trades. There is no way to measure the psychological impact of the addition. IMO the Dbacks exploded last night because of the excitement about the trade. They were looking really good before LA. The sweep and the game 3 meltdown really seemed to damage their confidence. Getting JDM had to help. As a fan I all of a sudden feel like the Dbacks have a chance to win it all. The players must feel the same.

Maybe....

I can't speak knowledgeably on the clubhouse morale good or bad and how that affects the play on the field.

J.D. Martinez's 1.661 OPS vs. left-handed pitching is the best in @MLB this year (min. 40 PA). @MLBNetwork @Dbacks

That throw was perfect.

The #Indians were a finalist in the JD Martinez trade talks before #Tigers sent him to #Dbacks; Cleveland still searching for bat.
