Alex White: "Stupid trade"
I agree Alex
Its a great deal for the Indians. Who gives a flying shit about prospects who have never produced in their life at the major league level. You get a ACE who has shown he can be in the discussion as one of the best at his position in the league. People amaze me who want to hang onto these young guys when given the chance at a proven player.
Were the Indians in this same position a few years back? Had this pitcher i think some may have heard of CC Sabathia. Traded him for something called a Matt Laporta. Top flight cant miss prospect. Guy is DOG SHIT!
You're comparing Ubaldo to CC Sabathia? Come on now.

Stop being an idiot. Every time we discuss anything you throw things into my mouth to make your side sound better. Never did i say they were the same pitcher. Never did i compare the 2. If i did i will sit back and wait for you to copy and paste where i did.
Just making a point to where a team was given the chance at a top player at their position for prospects. Laporta is shit. Smoak is shit and i could go on for cant miss prospects who blow more than your baseball knowledge.

I just don't think that Ubaldo is the answer. I don't feel that he is an elite enough pitcher to demand that kind of haul (the reason he got it was because of his contract). All I've been hearing was that the Rockies kept rying to sell him based on what he did at the first half of last season. He's a really good pitcher...but he's not great.

Maybe so - but if im an Indian fan im on cloud 9 right now - fianlly a move...Geezus they have been sitting around watching your Yankees, the freakin Sox, now the Phillies just scoop and buy and laugh all the way to the playoffs year after year.
It gets old after a while...This move gives them legit hope - even if it dont work - I agree with it...Fuck it they can go back to being the Indians next year if it fails.

For the record...you arecmparing the 2 by saying that they are top players at their position. Ubaldo is far from a top player at his position. Sabathia was.

I agree. I give them credit for making a move. They made a move that could possibly help them this season. They're in a position to compete for the Central so I'm all for them showing their fan base that they won't just give in. I hate teams who do that.

There is a "good chance" that they get Ludwick. Not a star signing...but he'd be a nice piece.

Yet it seemed as if the Rockies were begging teams to trade for him.

The word that should be in caps is WHEN.
I'm not saying he will be bad...but I don't think he's going to be the "STUD" that he is being advertised. He may match with Masterson as the team's ace...which is really good...but he's not an ace that will match up against another ace in a postseason matchup.
