Lol he is. Stud. I agree. I had no plans on keeping Saito and that salary. I expect Santana and Stephenson to be ready for the majors next season. Saito was expandable.

No but seriously this trade is a joke. The salary isn't even an issue for a big market team.

Saito is weird...you wouldn't think he would put up those type of numbers, but he does.
I'm sure the Cubs did their research and tried to make something happen...but I bet that salary limited some of the teams.

No but seriously this trade is a joke. The salary isn't even an issue for a big market team. Then it limits who can trade for him which hurts his value, no?

Jealousy isn't even part of it. This trade is worse than the Helton trade.

I would've loved Saito but no chance at ever affording him.

solid=great to me.... synonyms
Amazing how one trade is seen as blasphemous, and another just "jealousy".
Guess it comes down to who you are in BBSBL!
If enough gm's cry bogus, don't we have to send it to committee?
As a great GM once said, did I ever really say I thought the trade was fair or not? (or sumthin like dat!)
