Craig, I didn't know who had posted the comment. The only point of my subject tag was that if you criticize someone, it's simple courtesy to identify yourself. No, we don't know each other anyway outside purebaseball but those of us who have several teams do get to know each other as fellow owners.
I respect your opinions. Your views on competitive balance don't affect my willngness to trade with you, and I would hate to think those views will affect others' views.

As for this particular team, I have made some real boneheaded trades in the past. I just didn't think this was one of them.

We all know there are some really onesided deals made and that those deals do contribute to the problem of competitiveness.
