Yeah that was my take as well. I do like consistency with Shildt, but we are not a playoff team, 2019 could be huge and we needed to move more imho. Now, that doesn't mean we didn't try and couldn't get much, but I would have moved Fowler for a rookie league nobody.
I wanted more of a youth movement to see what we had the rest of the season, then dig into the pocketbook and go out and add to this SP staff.
