These are great! Keep up the excellent work. What are the chances of Dombrowski (tigers & Marlins) or Beinfest coming up? I'm not a Marlins fan, but was always impressed how they rebuilt those teams. Thanks

I was hard on him but he has had some steals like:
Joey Gathright for JP Howell
Toby Hall for Dioner Navarro
Seth McClung for Grant Balfour
Jeff Ridgway for Will Aybar
Brendan Harris,Delmon Young, and Jason Pridie for Matt Garza and Jason Bartlett
Aubrey Huff for Ben Zobrist
All the players that Friedman got in return had an major impact in 2008 which lead this team into World Series.
Edwin Jackson for Matt Joyce has yet to be determine.
Plus, his short tenture as a GM, his drafts has been strong. Evan Longoria was an All Star, David Price had an impact during the 2008 ALCS, and Tim Beckham is a 5 tool player with alot of promise. Tampa Bay farm system is one of the strongest in MLB; players like Fernando Perez, Jeremy Hellickson, Wade Davis, Jake McGee, Heath Rollins, Tim Beckham, Michael Sheridan, John Jaso, Jared Jeffries, Neal Frontz, Ryan Reid, and Ryan Royster. One mistake that Andrew Friedman ever made was letting Josh Hamilton enter the Rule 5 draft.
