| I really hope the Vazquez trade opened up enough finances for the Expos to retain Vlad. And Simon, be warned, I have seen A LOT of Vazquez, and the guy is lights-out. He in no way resembles Weaver. This is a guy that could be the Yankees' ace.
The A-Rod/Manny trade still seems stupid to me, as far as Texas is concerned. I see they'd be wanting to dump some payroll, but I don't think that trading Manny Ramirez and his fat salary is the solution. Ramirez is so overpaid it's not even funny, at least with A-Rod you're getting a special special ballplayer.
I heard the Yankees are close to trading for Kevin Brown, that would really bolster their staff. I should reiterate that I absolutely despise how the Yankees and Red Sox do business. |
