I'm presuming I am.

Because ****ing hell, they just got the 2017 silver slugger and gold glove winner in LF for 4 guys with almost no chance to truly matter in the grand scheme of things. They all have serious projectability concerns.

This is the Marlins picking 3 guys that they know will almost certainly spend some time at the big league level because they all have standout tools (Alcantara - velocity; Sierra - speed; Gallen - command/feel) but not a single one of them can provide you with anything apart from those tools.

They're one-trick ponies. Bench players for good teams.

It's a remarkably paltry return.
