[The Q]

Fernando Abad to the Red Sox for Pat Light.






I don't think it's Abad trade at all.

How does the Marlins "trading" Rea back to the Padres make any sense? They had to have gotten some physicals or medical approval on him before letting the deal become official. Why should the Padres give anybody back because he got hurt in his first start with Miami?

Pre-existing? Idk.

I'm curious what they get back from the deal.

Marlins get Castillo back.

 

[Bolts]

I liked Capps and Naylor more than Castillo anyway so it's not the worst thing, but it's still rather confusing. Maybe the Padres knew this might happen and kept quiet.

A's did really well with the Hill/Reddick trade.

Jays close to getting Ervin Santana.

That's what the Marlins feel.

They should just flip Castillo to Boston for Buch.

Boston throws Castillo into a Sale deal.

Everyone's happy.

Dont make light of this trade...

Great trade for the Brewers.

The Giants were just tying their shoes. That's it.

Nothing to see here...

That's the reaction of Giants fans seeing what they gave up for him.

GROSS over-pay.

Bickford looks to be a future #2/#3 and Susac can be a decent starting catcher (if he can stay healthy).

Both for a LOOGY who is giving up a .316 BA to lefties.
