Say you have a 1984 beat-up Honda.. Actually.. about seven 1984 beat-up Hondas. However, you have a few decent '00 SUVs, but you decide to take three of the beat up hondas to a car-dealer.
The dealer is a smooth talker and you are a complete idiot who likes to waste all of your money. Well, you want to trade in your crappy Hondas for a Corvette, thinking that this car would change your life.
As the dealer in this situation: What do you do?
....
Exactly, you say get off of my property and slap him in the face. Well if you haven't figured it out, the beat up hondas are our hitting squad, the nice SUVs are our pitching and the guy that likes to waste all of his money.. Brian Sabean. Let's see what he said in March:
"We're going to try (to trade), but I don't see us trading pitching in any regard to try to solve what we want to do offensively."
What the hell are you planning on doing then B-Sabe? Are you going to deal (Dave) Rags and a few baseballs for
Alex Rios?
No, at some point you may have to realize that you can't trade bad hitters for good hitters, so we may have to shake up some of our pitching staff. But I swear if you let Timmy go, well, let's not think about that.
Anyway, I guess the good thing about having all these Honda's is we save a crapload of money on gas, right?
Oh wait, we have to dump all of our money we save from the hitters into our H5 2010 Hummer Extreme a.ka.
