I should not judge the trade based on outcome but on whether it made sense at the time. It actually should have helped both clubs, but Gonzalez' injury and Thorman's inability to do anything really messed up the Braves. You know what, you’re right.

Sell High on Adam and get a bp arm in the process. Who knew that Gonzo was going to have to have Tommy John Surgery. I'd still take this trade. The problem was handing the 1st Base job to Scott Thorman was a gamble that didn't pay off in the least bit. And Craig Wilson wasn't the answer either. Tex has already made the fans forget both Thorman and LaRoche. It'll be nice to have Tex in the lineup for a full year come 2008. I’ll still go by the fact, JS made the right deal at the right time.
