I can't believe the Indians are dismantling this much. Their payroll wasn't even that high! They are ranked 15th out of 30 teams with a payroll of $81 million. Victor Martinez to the Red Sox hurts alot because, to me, he was a great small market guy who put in his work every year. Now, he's just going to be another clog in the Red Sox Machine. The rich get richer again.
Question: Which trade your favorite team has made broke your heart recently?
For me it was when the Astros traded two decent young pitchers, Taylor Buchholz and Jason Hirsh, and Willy Taveras to the Rockies for Jason Jennings. I hate Jason Jennings. After that I was distraught when I heard they had traded Brad Lidge for Michael Bourne and Geoff Geary. Imagine how I felt when Lidge did not blow a single save last year and helped the Phillies to win the World Series.

Not a trade, but I was really upset when Jim Edmonds went to the Cubs. There have been a crazy number of deals today. MLB's gone fire-sale.
