A kook of our own
Quick review of the weekend trade that happened While I was Out (I also think Bowden redecorated my rumpus room. All these luxiurious fabrics...I love it!) Jose Guillen for Juan Rivera and Macier Izturis.
There was really no reason to have Izturis around after Guzman was signed. Unfortunate but true. Macier had a year, tops, left in AAA and then what? Three years of back-up duty? Including him in the trade doesn't bother me.
Rivera had a very promising 2004, but Jose Guillen has the stats you were hoping Rivera would have next year.
There are a couple of q's I still have but I'll address them tomorrow.
