LOOL sacrifices had to be made to get rasmus

LF: Snider
CF: Rasmus
RF: Thames

1B: Lind
2B: Lawrie
3B: Bautista
SS: Escobar

C: Arencibia/D'arnaud
DH: Arencibia/D'arnaud

Trade Hill, move Lawrie back to his original 2B, keep Bautista at 3B if he doesn't mind.
Not sure about the catching situation. But D'arnaud is ripping it, and he's a better defensive catcher than JP. EE can also be DH
Davis can be legs that come off the bench when we need it. And he can be the guy when our other OFs need a day off. But we also got another stud, Anthony Gose, not sure what could happen here.

Lawrie can't play 2B, he's awful at the AA level, couldn't play it in AAA and will never see time at 2B at the MLB level.

I was at work, so someone please straighten this out for me.
So On July 27, 2011, Jackson was traded to the Toronto Blue Jays with Mark Teahen for Jason Frasor and Zach Stewart. First part.

Which is a pretty legit deal in itself.



And then we gave Jackson. Which kinda upset me since I like him. Had some pretty solid outings vs Jays at the Rogers Centre
He was then traded to the St. Louis Cardinals along with Octavio Dotel, Marc Rzepczynski and Corey Patterson for Colby Rasmus, P. J. Walters, Trever Miller and Brian Tallet

I guess this deal is okay too, not as good as the first one in my opinion. But then again, Dotel + Patterson were just rents + they will have shitty second halfs anyways.
I will miss Marc a lot though.

PJ Walters is a rand.
Trever Miller is like 50
Brian Tallet should retire due to just being bad.

But hey, COLBY RASMUS YAY!!!!!

In AA we trust!

At least you admit you have a problem.

that 2nd deal is amazing, Rasmus is worth way more than that IMO, by the way you basically got Jackson for 2 relievers (stewart will end up a reliever) so you basically flipped 4 relievers and patterson for Rasmus

this could be a long game
