Since we're overreacting over one game performances, let's look at who got for him. Pierre: 3-6, 3 runs, 1 RBI, 3B Looks like a pretty even trade right now. I'll take the guy who plays every day.
I try to ignore Ron Santo.He is the worst analyst that I can recall.He contributes nothing of substance. But he's so passionate about the Cubs, you can't help but love him.
So here's the question: How many 1-0 games does Florida lose with Dontrelle on the mound? Also, why was he taken out after 5 ip? What was his pitch count?
The Nomar trade was a good one in two aspects. 1. Matt Murton 2. I got to see one of my favorite players in the past 10 years play in a Cubs uniform. I hope every year Nomar can get it all together and stay healthy, but I think retirement is in his near future.
