[QUOTE="Buzzbomb, post: 672312, member: 1134"] I don’t understand it, either? Supply and Demand, I get that. Bidding wars, I get them. When the team payroll gets to a certain level, they try to trim by practically giving players away. I don’t get that thinking. Then they want to compete when the fans. get restless a few years later. Trade a bunch of upcoming young prospects for a guy like the one they gave away. Maybe I’m oversimplifying. Take Jason Hayward, very good defensively. He’s always been fairly inconsistent with the bat. Like Francoeur(never reached super status), a role player. Cubs have shopped for a long time. Long-term deals are more risky, so instead of keeping Bryant for a year or two more, they have to trade him to make up for the mistakes they gave Joe Maddon. Time to semi-rebuild. [/QUOTE]
