I am finally ready to call the trade of Nick Green for Sosa a bad one. It took a year to evaluate. But, when you give up a power arm like is mentioned in today's AJC, for a utility infielder its a bad deal. I know thjat Sosa probaly would have been a DFA causualty under Lou, but if I had to choose the player I would rather have for next year, it has to be Sosa. Sosa was 9-0 and 1.82 ERA on road this year. I hope that Stu brings in a veteran pitching coach to work with our young pitchers. That is a really important decision.
