Trading Youth

6-4-2 Dosen't like what Ned Colletti is saying about the Dodgers young players. This morning on 1010XL, they asked me if I thought the Braves should go into rebuilding mode. I didn't think so, but I suggested that the best way to do that would be to trade Chipper Jones to the Dodgers for some of their prospects. Chipper is too much of an institution in Atlanta for that to happen, but it's the type of move that would great short term but lousy long term for the Dodgers.

Colletti is an idiot. Furcal is out with a serious injury, their two biggest free agent acquisitions are out with serious injuries (and didn't produce a whit before those injuries), Pierre is only marginally better than he was last season, and he's blaming the kids for the trouble the Dodgers are having? We're talking about the moron who both signed the Pierre contract *and* let Maddux go to San Diego for peanuts (Maddux went a solid six tonight against the Dodgers before his bullpen blew up--wonder if Colletti ever admits to himself how much he'd like to have Maddux back in the rotation?). The man isn't competent to run a taco stand--much less a major league baseball team.
