Re: Tim Hudson traded
Are you out of your friggin mind? You think it was wrong to give up Charles Thomas for Hudson? Look at Hudson's lifetime record and then add 20 wins (minimum) for all the times he got a no decision after the bullpen blew it for him. The only bad part of the deal is that the Braves might not be able to resign Hudson after he has a monster 2005 season. Billy Beane is an idiot for doing this trade.

Re: Tim Hudson traded
We keep dumping our farm system into players that we keep for 1, maybe 2 years and then let go when they become free agents. Sheffield, Ortiz, Drew, Byrd, the list is getting stupid long. Yeah, we needed a first rate starter, and Hudson is one, no doubt about it, but this is just another step down the road of ruining the Braves. They're putting everything they can into staying in the playoffs, but they won't go the extra step to put themselves in contention for the World Series, and they're ruining any long term hopes while they're at it.

Honestly, Boris, I did feel positive that Hudson would get traded, hence the bet. But I did think that Beane would have gotten some more established players for him. Couple this with the Mulder trade, and I'm not sure exactly what he's up to. Think Eric Chavez isn't f'in pissed right now about signing his extension?

Re: Tim Hudson traded
as soon as i found out the phillies could have had him for any two of the following (utley/hamels/floyd/madsen), i nearly crapped my pants - just goes to show that the phillies and ed wade in particular have no freaking clue what they're doing, and they let him get to a contender....so let's recap, ED: braves get hudson, mets get pedro, we get....jon lieber? <cough> when you have the chance to get a legitimate ace (something this team hasnt had in 15 years), you go get him - hamels will never sniff the major leagues and while utley is good, hudson is 28, has 90 wins, best winning percentage in the majors, ugggghhhh
sorry just venting, and glad i tore up my season ticket renewal this year [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
