Wanted to add a substantial IF bat without giving up TOO much. This was where I landed at the deadline. Hopefully Correa/Britton/Strasburg all come back for my playoff run. I'm confident my bench can hold down the fort with another quality veteran like Pedroia on my squad. I don't want to rely solely on pleasant surprises. Ruiz and Gutierrez are both longshots, but Abraham has some magic in that bat. I think he's gonna be something. 

Thanks, A's. Good stuff.

No long term assets given, no long term burdens taken, something>nothing at the deadline.
