My take on what we gave up: 1. Beltran: I like his stuff, but he's a bullpen arm. Other than closers and a few elite set-up men, bullpen guys are a dime a dozen. I'm sure a number of our guys could be converted to fill the same need. Welly and Liecester are likely as good, but don't quite have the same stuff. We can afford to lose him. 2. Harris: I hate to lose Harris. He shows remarkable potential for me. I think he will be a nice major leaguer. That being said, Lewis is likely his eqaul...at least in the tools category. You have to give something to get something. 3. Jones: This is likely the highest ceiling prospect given up, but he's an A-ball prospect. He likely is at least three years away. I think Murton makes up for losing him. A position player for a pitcher. Also, Murton now gives us three good prospect that could see Wrigley in a few years. Harvey, Pie, and Murton would make a nice outfield in 2007-2008.
