farmer_fran Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 meh on the Spivey-Ohka trade for both teams. It does allow Milwaukee to call up Rickie Weeks though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iowa Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Nothing earth-shattering but they are solid moves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 It's Jim Bowden, so the moves will turn out bad. That guy has been snakebitten as a GM.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I don't get it. Drese get's shelled by The Phillies and is fired the next day. That warrants a signing by THe Phil's division rival? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TSwift25 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 I guess this means Vidro's rehab isn't going so well... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CardsJimEdmonds15 Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 Errr I like the moves.. Mainly the Spivey one.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Das Texan Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 The Brewers are a team that will be a major factor in that division in a couple of years. Kinda like some predicted a while back.  This year they are winning ahead of schedule. They will only get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rferry Posted June 10, 2005 Share Posted June 10, 2005 It's Jim Bowden, so the moves will turn out bad. That guy has been snakebitten as a GM.... 803749[/snapback] They turn out bad because they're often bad players or unnecessary pieces of a team. I like the Spivey trade. Trade from a point of strength (backend starters) for a position of weakness (secondbase). If he plays well, maybe Vidro will move to 3B. Drese will do horrible. Any groundball pitcher would do horrible in front of the Nats' infield defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Posted June 11, 2005 Share Posted June 11, 2005 Buster Olney on BBTN says Overbay is still cheap and with Fielder having some troubles in AAA that he probably won't be moved until next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuickSilver Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 Well today was the first time this trade paid off for the Nationals since Junior hit a 2-R HR in the 3-2 win. Time for the Marlins to make some moves that pay off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
