2 other trades and a pickup

Gammons said that Gonzalez could be up with the BoSox very soon.  With Sauerbeck, Fossum and Embree, that would give Boston 4 lefties in the pen.  That seems awfully heavily loaded to the lefty side.

Yankees have a lot of lefties, I bet that is the main reason.

 

However, to give up the Lyon King for Sauerbeck's 4.05 NL era? I hardly see how that's an improvement.

I thought the Pirates wanted prospects, and they give this kid Gonzales to Boston?

The Pirates are voluntarily "contracting" and their fans, the brave souls left are in a total uproar. The Steelers are in their Latrobe training camp. You're going to see more and more empty seats at PNC. It's a terrible situation, an indictment against the latest ML CBA and an even greater indictment against Pirate ownership. JR is a spenthrift compared to this. Wow! Can't believe I said that.

It also shows that new stadiums don't guarantee squat.

Look at the Tigers...Oh wait, they still kick our asses on a regular basis.

The only thing that should almost guarnatee fans is winning.

 

And their are exceptions to that too, just look at Oakland.

 

Now Mix a winning team with a nice stadium and then you have a way to make a ton fo money.
