June 12, 200719 yr You know I have to point out that one of those pieces was the player that a lot of posters on here wanted out of Cincinnati because he didn't produce enough and ONLY hit .300. People wanted him out because he was being paid too much for what he produced...
June 12, 200719 yr People wanted him out because he was being paid too much for what he produced... Let's not forget, he is making far less this year than he was last year (under his old contract). His financial asking power dropped for a reason, even with beautiful new jewelry. :thumb: Although I couldn't be happier that a guy like Casey (nice as they come, genuinely) got a chance to win an AL Pennant and play for the big enchilada.

June 12, 200719 yr I know, I know, it was one of the Lance's "talking points" todays, if they trade Dunn that frees up 22 million for next year with Milton being gone....Wouldn't it be nice to actually have the money to spend on some solid FA's instead of over the hill guys like Stanton?
June 12, 200719 yr Even with a ton of money to spend there isn't going to be much to buy for the pen on the free agent market...
