Lieberthal/Rolen

Posted By Chuck

I think the only players that really matter here is Scott Rolen and Lieberthal. Rolen is young and a great athlete, his numbers should keep getting better and he offers some of the best D at 3rd in either league. Lieberthal is a complete package behind the plate with a ton of PA, most teams have to having four catchers to get by not to mention at 30 Lieberthal as most catchers is just hitting his prime. 1bs like Huff and RF are a dime a dozen, true Green might be one of the better but alot easier to replace then skill position infielders are. LHP never do that well in my view and I dont see Redman winning alot of games that much less considering he struggled vs LH batters at best should help a team eat up some innings. Heck even Detroit just traded him and they suck LOL. Ward and Lawton are not too shabby either. Like any trade its all in how you view it but best to view it how it helps your team where and when you need the help which comes down-do you feel the trade will help you now if your going for it or down the road if your rebuilding right? but come on lets be real- I think its pretty common to expect more stick if you trade skilled infielders for 1bs and outfielders
