Alomar traded!

Yeah the players to be named later always suck.

Sincerely,
David Ortiz

PS - I'm not insinuating we'll get a player of Ortiz's caliber just that we may get lucky if our scouting department has an eye for a diamond in the rough. Most likely we'll end up with a scrub but it's better than the nothing we'd get for Alomar this winter.

Unless the GM is Ed Wade of the Phillies. Then he gives away very talented young players, even as PTBNL.

BTW, ESPN Insider said that the Phillies tried to trade for Danny Bautista, but that the trade was blocked on the waiver wire, so this does happen from time to time.

I heard they got to pick like 5 somewhat crappy prospects in A & AA (mostly A) and they get to track their progress throughout the year, and then they'll pick one of them.
