[QUOTE="IntenselyOrange, post: 1252678, member: 4888"] This is true. However, I'm happy with the deal right now and think that ultimately both teams will benefit from this trade. Moncada is likely to be an outstanding player. I think at least one of the other prospects will turn out to be a major contributor also. It's not as much as I would have liked, but I do think that it's a good haul. We are at a time when prospects are highly valued, therefore this was probably the best we could do. Flip a couple more pieces and we might be able to compete soon. I do think the Sox getting money in this is relatively meaningless from the fan's perspective. We're a couple of years away so they aren't going to spend it, they will pocket it. I'd like to think they'll spend on guys they can move for more prospects at the deadline, but I have little faith in the ability of the front office. [/QUOTE]
