    As long as he doesn't take a deserving guy's roster spot it's simply a non-move in my book.

    If he takes a deserving guy's roster spot then it's a horrible move.

    The fact that we gave up a guy of any value makes it a bad move, in my mind.

    Mark Bellhorn has "some" value and I doubt anyone would've missed him.

    The guy we gave away was a 23 year old putting up bad stats in single A, we won't miss him I guarantee it.

    From what I hear, the 23 year old apparently had some pretty good stuff, so a guaranteeing anything is pretty bold.

    Brewers

    IMO... Padres just need to keep pitching well and scrapping up wnough runs to win. They have a nice staff.

    This was the stupidest trade, ever.

    What we got was a poor man's Bellhorn. Yes.

    stupidest trade ever?

    Let's be real. This isn't even in the same galaxy as McGriff for Melvin Nieves.

    non move in the grand scheme of things.

    He's got me sold for the remainder of the season already.... I wasn't aware of the kind of power this guy has.......I had heard, but never seen....whew dude can mash....

    I like him playing 3rd for us for the rest of the year........and Walker giving 2nd and 1st breathers.......and having Bellhack as my 9254287th option off the bench...

    I also like having Branyan here knowing that he's not going anywhere, and if we can't or don't get a top notch 3bag, that we can look forward to watching him launch about 30 HR's next year........even if he only hits .220 and k's 500 times.....lol
