IF - that's IF - your evaluation of Jake Odorizzi is that he's a Danny Hultzen, then sure, the analysis changes to some extent.  Now you're talking about Zunino *and Hultzen* for your dream starting pitcher, one that's way underpaid for the first two years, and the Wade Davis deal as an obvious bonus for the Royals.
Two of your best and brightest is a different deal from one key player and add-ons, but it's still anything but "insane."  If the Mariners want to trade for any truly marquee name, they're going to have to figure on coughing up two of their big six (or seven, if you add Seager to the pitchers and Zunino, Ackley, Montero).
Will probably follow on an article off Thirteen's interesting post, if the platform stabilizes today :- )
