In a single offseason they'd have poached the #3 and #4 hitters from their top rival. That's surely never happened before.

Pretty sure the Cespedes deal will backfire on them long term. But for right now it probably pushes them past the Mets in terms of being the favorites in the East for 2016. Very tough lineup to navigate and still a strong pitching staff without Zimmermann.

Here's hoping the wheels fall off for them like they did in 2015.
