Finley is a second half player who goes on crazy streaks. When he's on one, there are few players better. He'll literally carry a team. Werth is entering his prime and has long term potential. Murphy was one of the Marlins's best pitching prospects.
It's too bad the RJ deal didn't go through but I'm also happy with letting him retire as a DBack. It should ensure that he wears a DBacks cap in the Hall.

ESPN is reporting: "The Dodgers sent minor league catcher Koyie Hill, outfielder Reggie Abercrombie and left-hander Bill Murphy to Arizona." (for Finley and Mayne). This is a good trade for the Dodgers, but yesterday's trade with Florida was horrible. The chemistry of the Dodgers is now in question, giving up LoDuca was stupid.
