I guess I'm not following.

Edmonds wasn't coming back. We needed another starting outfielder. We got Bradley, who replaced Edmonds.

DeRosa was traded. Fontenot became the starter. We needed an extra middle infielder. We got Miles, who replaced DeRosa.

I'm not even sure what we're arguing anymore. All I know is Aaron Miles has done nothing thus far to make me think he is going to be any sort of a worthwhile contributor to this team.

No. Fukudome replaced Edmonds. Bradley replaced Fukudome. Fontenot replaced DeRosa. Fontenot wasn't really replaced, his roster spot was essentially given to Gathright. Miles replaced Cedeno. Other moves, included Hill replacing Blanco, Hoffpauir replacing Ward, and a complete overhaul of the bullpen.

Saying it was as simple as Miles replacing DeRosa and Bradley replacing Edmonds just isn't close to reality.

How is it not close to reality? How is anything I said above incorrect? I give up. [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wacko.gif[/img]
