Re: Spivey trade

I think it's a great trade, we get a pitcher that would start on most teams in the league, his win/loss record is deceptive because he is on a horrible team. All we loose is an underachieving infielder that is batting .236...My opinion, that's a great trade.

As for Rickie Weeks, he's batting .320 in AAA with decent power. There is concern about his fielding and has 10 errors, but he replaces Spivey with 7. I think it's time for our minor leaguers to put up or shut up, I know it takes time to develop, but it's time to push them and see if they will actually be players or not.
