I was relatively shocked when it was announced that the Mariners acquired Arquimedes Caminero from the Pirates for a PTBNL. Not shocked like, dropped my phone, screaming in the streets. I've seen some things in my time. Tweets don't really get to me. But, you know, I was relatively shocked. Arquimedes Caminero, for everything he's been this year, is one of the flame-yist of the flame arms in the MLB. His average fastball velocity sits comfortably within the Top 5 of the entire league. Anytime you're acquiring a top-end tool, it's usually costly.
