That 4-for-1 shtick is a great way to get hosed. You give away a young franchise commodity, I only wanna know who the marquee player is coming back to us. The third player in the deal is a non-issue .... as Ruffin apparently already is, since the M's won't even pencil him into the BACK of the bullpen two months on.
Odd that the Pineda trade came from such a different paradigm as the Fister deal just a few months earlier.
