The DeRosa trade and all of the moves made in the off season were done as money saving moves to help with backloaded contracts and the signing of Bradley, first and foremost.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I know this is gonna sound like I'm straddling the fence, but I agree with your logic but at the same time I also think KB and Butch make valid points. I think trading DeRo on the same day as we signed Miles just left a bad taste in our mouths, and it's just hard for some of us to get over it.
