Trade makes more sense than that asinine Fister trade, however, I no longer think they are dealing from a position of strength on the pitching staff despite what M's fans try to tell me about the "prospects" they have in the minors.

Morales, well protected, with the Angels, did ok, when he wasn't breaking his leg celebrating like a jackass for hitting a game winning home run.

I like Vargas but I like morales's bat with him and maybe trade for upton. And sign swisher iLife our chances better. All and all both teams got what they wanted.

so just to be clear, if hadn't broken his leg, would you still call him a jackass for celebrating? which every single guy who hits a walk off does.

As I recall, his leap into his adoring teammates was a little above and beyond your standard celebration.

And yes, to be clear, I'm going to call you a jackass when you get hurt celebrating.

This is a good move.

Hopefully we can pull off a couple more decent trades, and we might actually have some interesting baseball to watch this year. I'll be in the King's Court either way.

A Morales trade makes a move for Swisher more than unlikely. They play the same positions, there isn't a spot for both especially when you factor in Smoak and Montero.

Moralas is a 1B, Swisher is a RF, Montero C, Smoak - Worthless, part of the problem not the solution IMO

Swisher *can* play RF, but his defense is terrible. He's far more suited to 1b/DH, and I'm pretty sure that's where the M's would want him if they were to sign him (which according to most sources seems very unlikely. That's what sparked the Morales trade, IMO).

Vargas wasn't really a great pitcher. Morales is a good pick up. With the fences moved in I think Vargas would have slid off our map.

Yep. I'm hoping to see a move for Michael Bourne, though. He'd look great at RF.

These are the only 2 guys the Mariners will aquire ( Bay and Morales) and then they will sugar coat it to look like they did something great and will also lie and say they made a hard push at Hamilton

Fargas the RB :)? Anyways, the guy was a lot better at safeco then on the road, and the fences are coming in.
