    That's a lot to give up. I'm conflicted on this deal.

    Stewart's the guy I mind losing out of that crew. That was probably the price of evening out the salaries, but we'll have to see.

    Zach Stewart will win a Cy Young for Toronto. Bank on it. Seriously.

    Wow, that's downright pathetic. Frankly, they should be sending us prospects to take this injury riddled has been off their hands. What a haul.

    Right?
    I think they would have to be.

    According to what I've read, Stewart was highly thought of. But, I wonder if there was more to his move to the bullpen in Louisville than just innings reduction?

    In 8 years people will be writing articles about how bad of a trade this was when Zach Stewart dominates the AL.

    Is it really that necessary to do this deal to include a second pitcher? Really? We need Scott Rolen that bad?

    I wish Redszone had a sub-forum where members could bet each other real dollars.

    Re: Heyman says Rolen to the Reds

    The only reason this trade was made - if true - is not only because of Jocketty's infatuation with Rolen, but because Jocketty actually believes this team has a chance in the second half. Geez!

    EE's owed 1M for the remainder of 09, while Rolen is due 5.8M.
