This is a lot like

the first moment after you get in a car wreck, and you’re looking at your car thinking, “No, this can’t really be happening!” sigh.

Get over it.....

Two aging players who won’t duplicate last years stats. We traded them at the right time when their value had peaked.

If you had to choose just one characteristic that would get you through life, choose a sense of humor.

And I disagree about Kerry Wood...

…he could very well improve on his performance last season. It was, after all, only his first year as a closer.

What do YOU think?

+34

I see him being a good closer, and it allowing his shoulder and back the needed rest to hold up for years to come.

DeRo we will miss him more in the field than at the plate.

Does Soriano's defense at 2B really cost more runs than in LF?  He makes a lot fewer errors in LF since misplays and mental mistakes aren't figured into the stats, but I have to imagine that his mistakes are more physical at 2B.  Any thoughts?  Is there a statistic on this?
