Wolverines And Senators Make Deal

[Soriambi]

Just seconds ago, a deal was completed that sent OF Craig Wilson to the Sentaors in exchange for Boston OF Kevin Millar, who is now a Wolverine, pending physicals.

"Although I would really like to pick up a pitcher, I think this is a fair trade that will work in the interests of both parties involved, even though Millar is a Red Sock, who happen to suck." Wolverines GM Coney 36 said.

Senators - I can see why coney would want to replace her 3B man, Valentin is serviceable, but doesn't appear to be a fulltime player this year, but what do you want Craig Wilson for? You could have Millar who's playing in a pretty good lineup, at a position where you have a MET of all things?

Just asking here..

Once Craig Wilson qualifies as a catcher you will see me for the genius I am. Until then I will sit here getting my ass kicked and looking stupid.

[Bozidar]

dude, he's a backup outfielder who may qualify as a catcher by june
"Jason Kendall gets as much playing time as any catcher in baseball."

Sorry, I guess you're just smarter than me.

I'm not arguing that , i'm just trying to understand, Terry

It seems like a bad deal to give up a starting 3Bman that you could use (on a good offensive team) for a backup outfielder/catcher (on a not-so-good offensive team) that you don't seem to need.

You may not care to respond.. i'm just looking for the light that's all. Just a conversation.

Boz, I got 2 wives that are still trying to understand me. No argument here, I just do what I do. In other words, make me an offer.

[Bozidar]

Hmmm.. Millar hit his second dinger today..

[Bozidar]

so did Valentin

[terry14420]

And on my bench he's no good there, Mr. Smart Guy.

[Bozidar]

how's ty wigginton doing?
(i have a feeling that Millar will qualify as a 3B soon.. and he's still a good OF while ya got him, better than ................deno He'll also play some 1B, i think, too)

[terry14420]

3 games into the season and the know-it-alls come out of the woodwork. I wonder if Brian Cashman goes into a cold sweat when he hears your name.

[Bozidar]

I'm sure he's not worried about Mr.BackupCatcherForAStartingOutfielder..

Find someone else to bother.
