First i wanna apologize if this isn't diary worthy. If it isnt please delete and i wont post anything like this again. i'm writing this because i want to get it off my chest. I get sick and tired of reading 97,000 post a day about trading jones,murton etc for this and that or hendry isnt doing his job because of it. What I wish some of you would understand is this: (example) if the cubs trade a big red apple to the orioles, the orioles are gonna trade a bid red apple back. if we trade 2 oranges to the braves they are gonna give 2 oranges right back. yes i realize from time to time we get lucky and come out on top in a lopsided trade. IT DONT HAPPEN OFTEN!!! i have read posts about needing a 5th starter. got breaking news for you here too 999 times out of 1000 they wont be any better than what we have (guzman,marshall etc.) i realize that this type of stuff will never cease but think of it this way- if i give you a dollar bill, are you gonna give me a 100 dollar bill in return--NO!! even when the trading deadline nears quality players are gonna costs a king's ransom. i'm willing to bet my life on it that behind the scenes hendry stays in touch and knows whats out there and whats not. okay i will end this rant with this before you make a trade post put yourself in the other gm's shoes and ask yourself, "would i do this?"
p.s. qaunity will never ever equal quality!!!
go cubbies!!!
