Re: Cubs: LaToya \"L, BS\" Hawkins traded for bag of sunflower seeds

I'm a Giants fan and I'm not sure what to make of this trade yet. He will be an 8th inning guy that the Giants need. True, he sucks as a closer but he is still pretty good in the 7th & 8th. As for what the Giants gave up, Aardsma is the best of the two. Williams was good for a year, but he just lost it this year. His velocity has been down and he didn't throw hard to begin with. Aardmsa has a live arm. The Giants turned him into a starter this year, but I think he will be good in the pen.
I don't know, unless Bonds comes back soon it's not going to matter for my Giants.

I'm very surprised the Giants would give up two young pitchers with the ability of Aardsma and Williams for Hawkins.
