Thread: Trade Rumor - Hardy/Gomez

Started 1 month, 1 week ago by crewbadge
I don't know who the source is (friend of a friend story) but it was rumored that Hardy to the Twins for Carlos Gomez might be a possibility. I like the idea. Inexpensive young prospect who's probably the fastest man in baseball for Hardy. Thoughts??

We need pitching. It makes no sense to me to trade our #1 chip for something other than starting pitching. Don't do it Doug!

Agreed. Bad move. That's the type of move that'll lose someone their job. *glares at Melvin*

I am not sure this is a bad move. I like the idea. Hardy's value is not what it once was. Signing Gomez gets you a young cheap player to play center field steal bases and maybe become a leadoff hitter eventually. And I think it actually helps you sign a pitcher, because it frees up the money that you would spend resigning Cameron. I would rather have the 10-12 million for Cameron to put ...

For what it's worth, the Milwaukee Brewers Facebook page is announcing the JJ Hardy was traded to the Twins in exchange for Carlos Gomez. Looks like Cameron will not be back, then. That will free up a food sum of money, possibly to go after a starting pitcher.

Yep...Its a done deal according to JSOnline

It was reported by Tom Haudricourt of the Journal Sentinel jsonline.com/blogs/sports/brewers.html A good trade always seems to leave both teams wanting. I know I am wanting a little more.

Deal is done... Terrible trade, but I guess you just can't have enough .220 hitters. Melvin must go

Yuck. I don't like this trade for the Brewers at all. Sure, Gomez is young and can figure out the whole getting on base thing, but right now he's nothing more than a speedy 4th OF. You'd figure that your GM would wait a little longer if he couldn't get a SP for Hardy at this time.

He's a Brewer now so I support him...my problem is that we HAD this guy (basically) and traded him away. Melvin looks lost. And how do the Brewers get the 2 starters they are after? ...to be continued

But he's not a decent hitter, let alone at lead-off, at this stage. He hasn't put up a season OBP of .300 yet, and while he's fast as heck, his stolen base percentage is pretty dismal. At least Hardy has a history of contributing with the bat, despite a bad season in '09.
