The Cardboard Connection has posted my article I wrote in the wake of the Matt Holliday deal. While the trade is now old news, here’s the link to the article for your viewing pleasure.
I also stayed up late last night tapping out similar articles for the Pirates/M’s trade and the Cliff Lee to Philly deal. I think the Pirates added some significant depth to their system as did the Indians. The M’s filled a couple of holes in their roster, but not spectacularly so. The Phillies may have purchased a couple more trips to the World Series while keeping their trifecta of elite prospects (Kyle Drabek, Dominic Brown, and Michael Taylor).
I will link to the Pirates/M’s trade article and Cliff Lee to Philly articles once they are posted on the Cardboard Connection. If you haven’t checked out that site yet, do so today. It is rapidly becoming one of the best sports card info sites on the web.
