He’s a smarter guy then Bill Bavasi. I want to echo something lboros pointed out a few weeks ago-
dave cameron of USS Mariner breaks down the proposed adam jones for erik bedard trade and concludes: bad move for the mariners. jones is seattle’s version of colby rasmus, so mentally substitute his name into the article in place of jones’ and you have a cogent case for why the cards ought not to consider a trade of that type.
Rasmus is the better prospect, but Jones is still very, very good. Bedard’s a fine pitcher and all, but he’s not close to being worth that price tag. Sorry Mariner fans, you’ve had to endure so much already as it is.
