Thank God for the Pirates? C'mon Cowbell, was that really necessary? lol..Your five games out of first. You are getting your best hitter and your best pitcher back soon. Shoot no, dont look towards 2010. Trading your players for minor leaguers is a cycle that dont work (see- Pittsburgh Pirates) that much. You are FIVE GAMES OUT OF FIRST! Get everybody healthy and trade for someone that could help you in the pennant race. The division is very tight. I mean ****, the Pirates have lost 10 of 12, in last place but are still only 9 1/2 games out of first. If I was head honcho of the Redlegs, I say NOW is the future. They have a fairly solid team, and to throw away this season when your this close would be very detrimental to your teams psyche.
