I agree with you in part. Janish could play a good backup to Reyes. Still not sure that I'm for giving up the farm and a starting pitcher to get him though. Pitching is bad enough this year w/o having to give up another half-decent arm.
I'd rather pick up a good LF and a good starting pitcher at this point.
Giving up average pitchers and a sub-par lead-off hitter would be more than a fair trade. Maybe not giving up a comparable package this summer for Greinke was an indication that they are suffice with what they have. They drop great players for projects and sometimes they work out, they have yet to go the other way around. Their farm system is pretty decent, but they seem to struggle on the big stage, so why not give up a major-leaguer or two and a decent prospect or two for a proven player?
