Gonzo

Dude...I just got to say this. Sometimes you win on a trade, sometimes you lose. Sorry Texas:

January 6, 2006: Traded by the Texas Rangers with Terrmel Sledge and Chris Young to the San Diego Padres for Billy Killian (minors), Adam Eaton and Akinori Otsuka.

That would be Adrian Gonzalez, the MLB leader in home runs. While playing at Petco. And yes, that Adam Eaton. I mean, I gotta celebrate what I can, right?

Also, there's been some rumors about trading Gonzo. But...I mean, the guys from San Diego. His brother's on the team. He's preeetttty much a Daygo icon (get it? I'm cool). Oh, and he doesn't get paid very much at all. And he's Mexican in a city that's across the border from...well, Mexico. That should probably be re-worded. Whatevskis. He's not moving.

Peavy go bye bye?

I mean....meh. There goes an offer for Peavy.

I can't see all the prospects offered but from the two pitchers mentioned, man....I mean, I wish we could get at least like a Matt LaPorta or something.

(Not Matt LaPorta specifically, but someone of his caliber who I could hope and dream on)

I mean, lets trade with the Giants! Everyone should recall the Nathan-Liriano-Bonser deal they did.

I guess what I'm saying is look what Cleveland got for Sabbathia. Look what Baltimore got for Bedard. The Padres really should get something of value for Peavy and "Richards is a sinker-slider kind of guy, with good stuff. I'd project him as a middle-of-the-rotation or bottom-of-the-rotation kind of guy." Not really that good enough.
