This trade strikes me as an all reliever trade plus Long, who I can’t see ever finding a place on the Rays 40 man (to say nothing of the active roster). I guess it works with Palacios returning from IL if the Rays really like the arms, but I would hope for better if they move Cabby midseason.

Well Neely is definitely a BP arm but I think there's a lot of upside for McCullough and being 6'4" doesn't hurt either. Wiggins is a big boy and I think he definitely joins the stable of young starters in the minors with his size and stuff, I think Long is a hitting machine that is very underrated, he's defensive position will be an issue but he doesn't have to be added to the 40 man for 2 more years so he has time to figure it out.
