The biggest winners and loser by FOXSports.com
FOXSports.com posted their article today on the biggest winners and losers for this season's MLB trading deadline. They opted to place the Reds as the biggest winner and my precious Minnesota Twins as the biggest loser. Read the article here for further detail. I replied with this comment:
I think it is obvious that Terry Ryan has conceded to the unlikelihood of a post-season after the loss of Hunter on Friday. Prior to the injury I could have seen a trade for players such as Soriano or Hillebrand to be of great worth, but without Hunter in the line-up the trade would be in vein. There were maybe three Twins players in this round of trades worth any value; Romero, Lohse, and Mays. Though, the Twins were not about to give up Romero when they already have to resort to using the horrible Mulholland and would only give up one of the two starters. Of the three, Romero had the most value followed by a great margin with Mays and Lohse, giving the Twins no movement for a trade without giving up their hot pitching prospect. Therefore, placing the Twins as the biggest loser by the trade deadline is ridiculous providing under the circumstances they made the correct choice to not make any moves.
