Circumstances dictate what one will do and when. Gigz was bad and was intent on tearing down in order to start over. He saw the opportunity to acquire 3 young pitchers, two were top 5 picks the previous season, for a 1B when he had several of them. I was bad and I'm simply not content to sit around while losing. I gave up two prize pitchers, in my eyes at the time, for a fantastic hitter. Had I had the same mindset as gigz, I don't do the trade because I was trading future for current. I was simply not going to have a 50 win season on my record.
