Not Applied April 29th 2004 Boston Trades: Robinson Cano, 5th round amateur pick (2004) (Anthony Swarzak) Philly Trades: Carlos Silva May 2nd, 2004/ May 12th 2004 (reworked deal) Boston Trades: Freddy Garcia, Jody Gerut St. Louis Trades: Yadier Molina, John Gall, Chris Narveson, Dee Haynes, Juan Rincon, Toby Hall, Alex Escobar, Rick Ankiel, Travis Hanson, April 2005 Monthly (Richie Gardner), July 2005 Monthly, (? Texas got the pick?) 5th round amateur 2004, (Corey Dunlap) 2 million Clause: All of the clauses on the Freddy Garcia deal with New York are still in affect. IE if Garcia doesn't win 11 games with an ERA under 4.75 Boston still gets New York's August 2005 monthly pick, and if Garcia gets paid over 6.5 million for 2005 then Boston still gets 750k from New York. Commentary 3/15/07 - Freddy Garcia/Jody Gerut for 11 players and 2 million... wow, definitely sounds impressive but this is definitely the whole quantity over quality. The best use most of the players in the trade were for trade bait later (Molina, Narveson, Haynes, Hanson), Rincon has been the one player in the trade that stuck with my team, and Hall at least has been on the roster numerous times as a backup. Gall has already been cut, and Escobar and Ankiel I doubt will amount to too much... and whatever happened to the July 2005 pick? |
