    Man I hate giving up Daz and Rogers, perfectly content with giving up Perez. Should be a hell of a boost to the staff and clubhouse though.

    Good thing Cameron has been stepping up, I don't like losing Rodgers but like getting Verlander

    Damn I hate seeing Rogers go. We can't seem to keep any of our catching prospects.

    Going to be a lot of pressure on JV--first bad game and this forum will implode.
