SEMI-STUPID TRADE OF THE DAY
(brought to you by Safeway's $1M Baseball Magic Sweepstakes, the sweepstakes that still show Jeff Cirillo in the ads even though he'll never get four hits in a game or hit for the cycle)
Okay, here's a trade that once again, probably won't happen.
to SEA: Eric Byrnes
to OAK: Jamal Strong, cash considerations
The cash is only to offset the fact that Byrnes has legit Major League experience. I guess my only rationale for Oakland here is that they could use more speed. BUT, my rationale for Seattle is this -- Eric Byrnes had an AWESOME FIRST HALF and A PUTRID SECOND HALF!!! He'd fit right in!!
