But he's gonna make it all up to you guys now TNP. He's going after a "run producer". Wait a minute, he just traded away one of his best chips...oh darn, there goes that.

I'm praying that Wren needed this prospect to spin to San Diego for Gonzalez, but based on what we know, here is my expert analysis of the trade:

hahaha
that would be the only reason this trade can be valuable to Atlanta, is if they know it will land them Adrian, in which, it helps New York even MORE, because he didn't go to Boston.
For a lead role in a cage
They are consenting adults, so you should be OK with it.

He's not. I know a few Yankee fans that don't like it.

I dont get it. Why does everyone think Vazquez is the 2nd coming? He is the perfect national league pitcher, but is horrible in the AL. Melky can provide a great all position OF with a rocket arm. His defense is average, but he adds a lot to a team. As Yankee fan, I hate this trade.

Vazquez is, at the very worst, a very durable league average pitcher. Career ERA+ in the AL is 102, in the NL is slightly better at 110. Getting that for a fourth outfielder, middle reliever and far-off pitching prospect is a steal.

I know it was the right trade. The hard thing is the sentimentality factor. Melky was a player who busted his ass off on a team of superstars. While the rest of the team sat around, it was always he and Jeter on the rail watching and supporting. I will miss that guy and Atlanta picks up a quality backup.
The real effect is putting Joba into the setup/closer role where he belongs so it makes absolute sense. Also, Vazquez is still young and as good as any other pitcher that went free agent this year. I just remember him coming out of Montreal as the next Pedro and then it went to Hell. I shouldnt allow bad memories of the guy cloud my judgement since he is now a reliable 2-3 pitcher.
Some call me Mr.Biggles
I hope they can get a Matt Holliday type player for left....
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are .

Vazquez's numbers are almost identical from AL to NL why is everyone calling him an NL pitcher?
Is Ozzie Guillen's opinion really that valuable?
He's a league average pitcher who had great stuff last season. Melky no longer had a starting job. Sorry, the smart thing to do is ship him.
