    Hey I've been on the Oz train since long before we even acquired Swanson. Just stoked we're actually producing someone that can field and hit. Haven't had one since Simmons.

    The question is does Albies hit 50 Homers next year?

    That appearance by John Hart during one of the games and his comments about Albies confirms everything I've suspected about the guy (John Hart).
    "I am a victim, I will tell you. I am a victim."

    But I was told Demerritte's good 2 week stretch made Albies expendable.

    I recall multiple trade proposals based on the premise that Demeritte could play second.

    Okay.... to be fair. The discussion was that Demeritte and the haul you could get for Albies might be worth more than Albies. NOBODY thought that TD was better than Albies.

    That's right. I don't think it is crazy to speculate about trades of that nature. But I think there is a small band of us here who have been very big fans of Albies for a while. And we're just relieved that all those trade rumors did not come to pass. I think he's been undervalued even relative to some of the high rankings he's gotten from BA and others.

    Agreed. It would not have been a smart move. Just want the record to be straight.
