It could be argued that our relative inactivity during the offseason is directly related to this trade. Thus adding validity to the likelyhood that this deal will get done. We obviously have moves that need to be made. KW has been on the lookout for the best deal for this team ever since the season ended in September. KW may just turn out to be smarter than alot of us have given him credit for. It's not always the deals you make, but the deals you don't make.
I think we have a few deals lined up that are a possiblity, but are contingent on what happens with the Manny/Arod thing...
So far this off-season NY and Boston have obviosly been the key players. But I think that during the second-half(we always seem to be a second half team), after the 20th & Arod/manny, we will have the biggest part to play for the rest of the off-season.
So I'm just hoping Hart & Esptien and thier respective owners can come together on a deal-- so that we can get to doing SOMETHING.
