I, too, am impressed by Patrick's positive attitude.
I still think the bottom line here is that C. Young is neither all that young, nor all that promising.
He's one of many guys who could go either way and make the half of us who aren't impressed look bad.

That said, Travis Lee is not the kind of player an Unmanaged Team needs to draw an owner. If I had Young, I'd be trying to trade him while his value is high. This trade was marginal, but nowhere near as bad as some have made out.

I hope Mike truly did make an error in accepting the deal, and NOT that he succumbed to pressure from the boo birds on the Board!!!!
