Wow! Definitely debating not buying Prospectus now. :|

Can I take it that you're not a big fan of the, uh, restructuring of the A's?

Actually, I am. I'm not sure what gave you that impression from the post, but while I was doing my share of breast-beating and howling at the moon when it came out, I'm more or less 100% OK with the major restructuring.

Beane was right to sell Mulder and Hudson this offseason, and I think he got the right parts in return for them -- in fact, I'm thrilled that ATL's reluctance to part with Glass Man because God knows Billy is knee-deep in 2B's. And while the fangirl part of me wishes that he'd signed Huddy instead of taking Kendall, I can deal, particularly if Huddy puts up a sexy ERA this year in the NL.
