Garza for Young

Yesterday the Twins and Rays (lame name) made a blockbuster trade. Tampa receives Garza and others for Delmon Young and others. You rarely see trades of young players anymore but I really think this benefits both teams. Garza will be a solid #3 starter for the Rays in a division where you need at least 3 good starters (ask Toronto). Young will get out of Tampa Bay and play in Minnesota (if they trade Santana and Nathan, they might be worse than Tampa Bay). Young will get a fresh start. Short term it helps Tampa more because of their need for pitching. Long term it will help Minnesota (until Youg can become a free agent).

What, no gloating over the big Tigers trade yet? I'm disappointed in you, Tob!
