For the record Andy's just doing his job. We've got to find away to disagree more respectfully going forward it really upsets some GMs (some who may not even be involved) to watch people flame each other. If you can't type a reply without being rude try just typing facts and nothing more because at the end of the day the goal is the same: a fun and long-living league.
I agree with Rocky's assessment (obviously) and I think while the value for DPs is high in FCM it's probably a tad on the overrated end. I can't completely speak for Piazza but if sees the same things I saw in Chitty when I picked him up from COL I don't see this as an overpay at all. I think if Chitty's name were Adam Dunn this trade wouldn't even be question but b/c we have so much talent 93 power doesn't equate to around 35-40 HRs like I personally feel it should.
If the 2nd rounder was the 86 or 87 peak I'll get the 3rd was a 84 peak and so on it'd look a lot less intimidating on paper as I think Piazza is trying to get at. I don't know if that's the best point of view since I'm involved in the deal but it's where I'm at with it anyways.
