That's a good question. I agree with you that he'd value the Fister return higher... As well he should. Because Zman gave up more value on the Fister trade in Fister alone. However we can't forget that he also sent over Pauley, a perfectly serviceable fifth starter. That's potentially 2/5ths of a rotation. Now I will have to trust Z based on his track record.
I kind of wish Z had offered Fister, Pauley and ALSO Bedard also to Detroit to secure their best of the best spects. LOL, how bad would that have tweaked the Yanks!
