Horrible fukking trade, was a salary dump. Could've offered Bruce a QO and if he accepts you know what you're getting and if not you get a sandwich pick between the 1st and 2nd round. Instead we get the Indians 30th round pick in 2016 who has an almost 5 ERA in single A.

Wish we got more but :manny:. Fam doesn't fit the team.
It's a bad trade, it's almost as bad as the Wagner trade. You offer him the QO and if he rejects you get a sandwich pick between the 1st and 2nd round. If he accepts you get 30 home runs and a .800 plus ops. This is a really bad trade and reeks of the coupons trying to save money

I don't think you automatically get a pick if he declines the offer tho. I thought I read something about it depending on whether the deal he signs is $50mil+ or something like that.

They could have been forced to sell when they were revealed to have been in cahoots with Bernie Madoff, but they were friends with Bud Selig and Rob Manfred.
