    A comparable trade to the WILY MO deal?

    It seems like Borchard's name has been around for a while. He got moved too.

    Young outfielders with potential- though Borchard's window is closing at 27. I know not the best of comparisons but thought it might show a little about what the market is out there.

    I know I'll probably tend to over value deals made by my favorite team, but this trade isn't all that comparable. Unless you're jsut referring to a pitcher for and OFer. Arroyo may not be Seaver, but he's established, and Pena has potential upside. The two in this deal are far more iffy.

    Championships for MY teams in my lifetime:
    Cincinnati Reds - 75, 76, 90
    Chicago Blackhawks - 10, 13, 15
    University of Kentucky - 78, 96, 98, 12
    Chicago Bulls - 91, 92, 93, 96, 97, 98
