After looking this over, I'm going to say it's approved. Edmonds was on the market for a while and this is the result. While it may not seem like the haul you'd expect for a 28 year old star, the market dried up. Tim is still on track to be an ace/2 starter and the other prospects can be mlb/AAAA guys for sure.
