Sounds like you're taking advantage of the extra bats. Tough with that log jam at 3B & OF. I'm sure you're religiously looking for other batting/pitching swaps in that area.
Yes the deals may have been a bit of an overpayment if they were standalone, but with your situation, they are entirely warranted, and i would have done the same thing. Rich Hill probably also gets traded to a contender and racks up a nice number of wins to close out the season.
Foltynewicz was a great add for me as well, he has been a great depth pitcher.
