I'm not very familiar with prospects, but Alderson is fairly highly regarded, isn't he? This seems like a much better deal for the Pirates than previous rumored returns from the Giants.

It seems kind of low on the Pirates part. They should have asked a little bit more for Sanchez. Good trade for SF.

 

[MacK]

Wow. Nice net!

alderson=above average prospect
sanchez= average infielder

I think it's a good return for both teams, but I had been hearing Frandsen, Bowker, or Guzman for Freddy Sanchez - not Alderson!

 

[ballerskrip]

WOWOWOW

The Giants step up and make something happen!!

Damn, that's going to hurt Alderson cards. ::facepalm:: .. Like a guaranteed 30% drop off when you get traded to the pirates.

 

[ThoseBackPages]

DaRocker will be having a fire sale! lol

Alderson is still listed to pitch for Conneticut tonight.

 

[Resident Bay Fan]

Well, there goes the value on Alderson cards. ::facepalm::

Good for the Pirates, got a guy who came into this year as a top 50 prospect, who has raised his stock this season. He could be contributing in the bigs by next year.

The Pirates finally made a good trade.

I guess winning the NL batting title doesn't count for anything........it just
makes him a below average infielder?
