My bad, what more can you ask for? Great contact guys to put on the hit and run.

Still haven't figured out the Baker trade.

If Cubs had taken a shot at him, lead off spot was what they would have used him for.

Day games, he hit about the same as Stevie Wonder would...234, ob% .281..Soriano did better

I would have loved Sanchez on the South Side. I've been a big fan of his for a few years. Don't know how Pittsburgh ever plans on winning when they trade players like this.

Plus, you can't knock a guy who won the batting title.

gotta say Pirates did a hell of a job here, Tim Alderson is one hell of a pitcher and pretty impressive for somebody that wasn't gonna resign with the ballclub anyway

Sanchez > Fontenot + Miles + Blanco
