One reason I’m dealing a pitcher with Nick’s vitals – health. He’s been hurt three times so far this year after being hurt FIVE times last year. He’s missed approximately six months in a season and 2/3. Bottom line is I can’t count on the guy. Of my top six SPs, only Corporna has a health rating of more than 75. Nick is of no use to me if he can’t get on the field. I'm continually shuffling guys in and out who have two, four, six week injuries.
I’ve picked up some young pitchers in recent deals (Klee, Herrod, Greiner) who make Nick expendable.
The two prospects I’m getting back are, in my opinion, my future shortstop and one of my future SPs, with a health rating of 82. These are two of the three guys who were coming in the original McCluskey trade - they've since jumped. The other three are bit pieces who may help with bullpen injuries, Felt is Felt.

Yeah.
I hate lefty pitchers but hopefully this dude is one of the few that pan out, his build and pitch selection are great. My superior training staff will keep Nick healthy or they will be replaced.
