The draft is about control...cost conteol is part of that. Controlling the distribution of talent is as well. Doesn't matter who Spencer Torkleson wanted to play for..hes gonna play for Detroit
The options with Javy seem to be pay him to play...pay him not to play..or find some one willing to take him. I'd imagine we'd have to retain fat $$$ to trade him.
In retail parlance...we broke him, we bought him
Horrible team playing in an ugly, nondescript ballpark in the middle of a Hell's Kitchen level neighborhood...what could possibly be worse? Oh...someone got shot...there ya go
Tork is a dynamic offensive threat who's generating some buzz...Greene/Tork/Carpenter has the potential to be a top level 3-4-5 heat of the line up. I am not trading that...it seems so...Kansas City A's/Yankees
