Yeah...well they screwed the hell out of Sabes (FRANCISCO LIRIANO, BOOF BONSER and JOE NATHAN for a piece of ****!) but yeah...tough break for Twinkies fans!


I've been trying to forget that day.... you just brought up bad memories. :mrgreen:


sorry...but if I have to remember that, so do you :mrgreen:


It seems every time we make a trade, we get raped on it.

Accardo------> Chulk and Hillenbrand
Pierzynski-----> Bonser, Liriano, Nathan
Jerome Williams-----> LaTroy Hawkins

:|


Totally, Sabes seemed to have lost his touch after that Schimdt trade. Everything after that has been complete crap!

But what a great trade that Schmidt trade was! Wow... Looking back...

If I remember right it was:

We get:
John Vanderwall
Jason Schmidt

They get:
Armando Rios (I loved him, for some reason)
Solomon Torres (The second coming. :roll: )
Ryan Vogelsong (I liked him, as well)

I was actually mad originally. I loved Vogelson and idolized Rios. Dont ask me why. I just did. :wink:

Since were on the topic of the Pirates, I guess you could argue that Sabean being able to pawn off Morris' horrid salary was a decent move as well

I forgot all about that. That was only like six months ago, too. :shock:

Not only were they able to move his nasty looking contract, but they were able to steal a good, young, talented player in Rajai. Too bad they wont play him. Wanna bet he doesnt make the team this year? Sad but possibly true. :|

The Mets still don't have any great middle relievers. They'll win the division but it won't be over by July (unless Brad Lidge does his Brad Lidge impersonation).

I don't mind the Jerome Williams trade. The Accardo deal turned out to be pretty damn lame.

The Bonsor, Liriano and Nathan trade never happened. I refuse to believe it. May it never be mentioned on this forum ever, ever again. It didn't happen.
