The ridiculous thing is – Silva wasn’t even particularly good BEFORE his disastrous stay in Seattle.

Bradley is approximately – and I don’t want to overstate it – one billion times better, as a ballplayer, than Carlos Silva. That’s my gripe.

It’s sad that it’s come to that – I am not a reactionary “FIRE XXX” kind of guy, and I know you aren’t either. But here we are.

This trade is trip aces at the bellagio. Can’t believe how excited I am. Silva is an absolute stud. That all being said. At least we got some money coming back which we can spend foolishly. Jim hendry, you complete me.

I just hope this is Hendry’s swan song.

It’s a bad deal because the while Bradley appeared to be unplayable for the Cubs, there’s reason to believe he could go back to being a moderately useful player for another ballclub.

The Mariners saw Carlos Silva the same way the Cubs saw Aaron Miles last year – they gave him a chance early, watched him be awful and get hurt, gave him another chance, and then started making up injuries to keep him off the roster. There’s much less hope of a turnaround – the only reason they didn’t eat the contract was just in case someone else would be a sucker and pay a portion of the contract while taking the player off their hands. Jim Hendry is a sucker.
