do a search of Nolasco I guess if you've been skillful enough to avoiding reading topics with Carlos/Ricky rants you're really taking this thread in a direction that doesn't interest me much, though
None of it's valid. Hendry usually doesn't even need prospects worth a damn to garner something of value in a trade. So for every time he foolishly gives up Nolasco for diddly-poo in return he'll also give up table scraps to get the most dominant starter in the game or all-star corner infielders. Or are we actually upset that he doesn't win every trade by a sizeable margin? Yeah, I wish my urine tasted like champagne and women begged me to piss on them.
then what does any of it really matter? so we could have maybe traded him instead for Coco Crisp, who looked better than Pierre at the time of the trade, only to have him flame out instead.
so you guys think Juan Pierre sucked; well there's a horse that hasn't been beaten to death with a 4.91 ERA coming into this year, i doubt we'd have cleared a rotation spot for him
there's a much more legitimate complaint to be made for losing Hamilton than there is for Nolasco. -he wasn't in the team's plans -he never really had a spot in the rotation -he's missed a lot of time -the team would not have waited out his injuries and struggles like the $15m Marlins have is our pitching depth bad now? we can't even sneak Marshall in the rotation and Hill is still floating around there somewhere. Samardzija might not be able to fit into the rotation next year either. good for Nolasco that he's doing so well; I don't miss him one bit.
