As we take the next progression as a young team, and this young starting rotation comes into their own ... you make a couple of shrewd offseason acquisitions - and I think you are right there in the mix.

On the Thomas trade, Rizzo called Alex Clemmey "the lynchpin" of that deal to make that work with Jose Tena and Rafael Ramirez Jr. to get that done.
Rizzo said he had a few takers for Winker, and wanted the Tyler Stuart deal with the Mets as "his needle was pointing north."
The Harvey deal brought back a draft pick that turned into Caleb Lomavita and Double-A infielder Cayden Wallace.
