Alright im getting a million different stories of why this is a bad trade
One argument is that the value is bad...uh really because thats just not true. lets take a look at the boris turner deal

look at the value that was given here and how mine is in comparison. Now lets look at the stats of both Cote and Turner and I can argue all day that cote's been more effective than turner has been and the turner trade gave up far more.
Now onto the argument of whether its a good fit for baltimore. It certainly inst my place or anyone elses' place to say the direction of his team but since when is it a bad move for the future to pick up a 26 year old ace. That baffles me as an arguement. I think everyone agrees here that pitching is the premium in our league and he gets to pick up a real good one here.
