[red-in-la]

Thanks for the clarification 15fan. I suggested the Reds trade Casey to Atlanta, not that the Reds traded Esasky to Atlanta....but I can see how it could be confusing (the way I said it).

I referenced Atanta because of the past Casey to Atlanta rumors and because Nick Esasky was supposed to make the Reds regret giving up on him when he arrived at the "launching pad."

Point is, some traded end up like Paul O'Niell, but MOST trades end up as losers for the other team.
