First, Pena would have to be in the clubhouse and not fucking Sugarland.
Second, Carlos isn't adding defense.
Third, this team needs pitching and not a bad case of deja vu' and this smells like a Crane move similar to getting Verlander a second time when he really didn't do shit, took up pay roll, and when it mattered didn't win games.
This team with or without Carlos isn't winning games 8-6 in the play offs. They aren't getting past Detroit with their pitching or outscoring Toronto.
I was good with a number of the late trades in the past because the team was put in a position to compete in the play offs, but this is a desperation move and that is when you make big mistakes.
Dana needs to take the phone away from Crane, tell Jim to fire him if he wants, and protect the club from another sentimental mistake because they don't need to tie up money when they already have too much tied up in Montero and Abreu, have a player in Altuve who really needs to be a full time DH, and if they want to make a bold move, move Alvarez. Yes, that might sound stupid, but something doesn't feel right about the hand, this is his third extended period on the injured list, second with the hand, and if this thing is chronic and he won't do surgery if isn't going to magically go away.
