I liked the Dubois/Gerut trade. Jody would have been a good bench guy/4th OF.

Agreed. I didn't like giving him up but oh well.

Oh, but we got Matt Lawton for him, who was a really good... never mind.

Ahh, but he took a $7+ mil paycut this year...

I liked it too. And I hated the Gerut/Lawton and Lawton/Berg deals.

Sorry, but when you look back at it now, the Lawton...Gerut...Dubois deals can't be seen as anything but failures....the Lawton deal should have never been made without another deal in succession to shore up the team for a playoff run. Lawton wasn't enough initself to ever bring the team to the playoffs. It was ridiculous to think so. Don't get me wrong, I was just excited to see us make a move and I thought Lawton was a good choice, but I also thought that without another deal to accompany it (pitching), there really was no point in it.
