BearSox Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 25, 2010 -> 05:19 PM) I agree with you. But Juan's defense has been spectacular this year. That's obviously given him more of a pass. But I hated the trade from the start. Only Kalapse hated it more than I did. I think his D has been overrated, he's just not very good at getting reads, but his speed has made up for it, and he's certainly been better than expected. And I don't know what he was doing stealing there, but it worked out! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the right approach, he put a very good swing on a fastball right down the middle. The problem was that he hit the ball less than a millimeter away from the right spot on the bat.

spiderman Posted July 25, 2010 Share Posted July 25, 2010 Oakland is decent team, but just sucks to lose 2 out of 3 this weekend. Oh well. Take 5 out of 7 at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

justBLAZE Posted July 25, 2010 Author Share Posted July 25, 2010 With Haren going to the Angels I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Tigers will get Dunn and last minute Kenny will pull off a Prince Fielder deal. It should probably go in the Trade Winds, gut feeling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless there's real quality on the PTBNL list, none of the guys the Angels gave up were top 10 prospects in their system coming into the year.
