No I'm not crazy, or at least I don't think I am. This season went all types of bad and placed most of our projectable future on the trade altar and sacrificed it to the baseball gods. Still, many will argue our core is solid and it probably is. Which means fans can get worked up again when we trade for another innings eater. The reality is this team will take the same core from a 69-win team and pray things get better. I guess it helps when your core contains a perennial MVP candidate.
Paul Goldschmidt is about as perfect a player you could wish for.
