1.) He is a huge injury concern.

 

2.) He is beyond bi-polar with the bat.

 

3.) He isn't getting any younger or cheaper.

 

4.) His defense is suspect.

 

5.) We have a potentially (keyword!) better replacement waiting in the wings.

 

Then again, you only do such a trade if you can get a really good young pitcher back in return.

1.) He hasn't been hurt all year and his recent injuries are behind him.

Last year it was Plantar Fasciitis - that's gone now.

In 2008 it was the broken wrist - I don't see Q punching any bats again.

 

2.) He's been just fine with the bat this year and last year.

Look beyond the average.

 

3.) True

 

4.) His defense LAST YEAR was horrid - because of the Plantar Fascitis.

This year, his D has been very good.

 

5.) If we weren't contending for the division and a playoff birth - sure, you bring up Dayan for him. So long as we're in contention - there's no need to bring in the rook for Q when he is much more of a sure thing.

 

Those are my thoughts at least. :)

Regarding the no-save for Santos, frankly it's refreshing that the manager doesn't have to be a slave to the save stat because it's so tied to incentives for established closers. Ozzie can actually get the matchups he wants, as all managers should, but don't, due to a ridiculous statistical construct.

 

Don't change a thing in this regard, Ozzie.
