I agree with both of those sentences. However, one or two well-thought out, well-hustled trades (usually salary dumps that he jumps on) seem to be his specialty.
An entire roster overhaul?
Where <i>he's</i> the guy dumping contracts?

Frightening.

Do you want to back this up with any actual facts? Certainly Hendry can be blamed for some free agent contracts, but where are the trades that he has made that lead you to believe we should be afraid of him making deals?

looking over the internet I found one article that said trading away Corey Patterson was Hendry's WORST trade. I'd say getting guys like Lee, Ramirez, Simon, Lofton, Harden, Nomar all for pretty much nothing balances that out pretty nicely. And those weren't all salary dumps (unless the Red Sox are short of money).

By the way. Our current starting second baseman was acquired during one of Hendry's "frightening" contract dumps. Would you rather have Fontenot or Sosa right now?
I wish that I believed in Fate. I wish I didn't sleep so late. I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders.
