    Terrible trade. Jennings is not worth Hirsch.

    No kidding. I hope they got something wrong, or I hope Suppan is at the press conference, too. :(

    I like the Jennings part, but who will play center? Lane? Not too excited about that. And it looks like the other pitcher in Zeke Astacio Part II.
