[revo]

no word yet on the return to Boston

Allen Craig and Joe Kelly. Wowzers -- a lot of major league talent being swapped today!

Wow, that's some return! Craig fell out of favor in STL real quick.

So glad I traded Craig yesterday....

Is it?

Craig has been crap for a full calendar year now & can't hit anything on the inner half. Kelly's arm is strong, but doesn't miss bats. Short term benefits here but Boston could have extended Lester this spring & then had Lackey for 500K to boot next year.

I'd rather have Lackey for $500K than crappy Allen Craig and Joe Kelly. But maybe Lackey has intimated that he was going to retire. Who knows.

I made a dump trade early June for Puig and I shipped Braun 44, Craig 15, Castro (expiring) and Castillo (expiring)...poor owner, now he's in 7th place and will have lost a potential keeper and possibly in the standings
