Cubs Trade Bradley For Silva


"After numerous attempts to move outfielder Milton Bradley, the Chicago Cubs have found a taker. That taker is the Seattle Mariners, who, according to Larry Stone of the Seattle Times, will be sending right-hander Carlos Silva to the Cubs in return for the much-maligned outfielder. The key to deals like this often ends up being money. Bradley is owed $21 million over the next two seasons while Silva is owed $25 million over the same span. Bradley could see time at DH for the Mariners, but could also play left field, particularly against left-handed pitching (ESPN)."

We all know Bradley is a shithead, but I still hate this deal. Silva might be the worst starting pitcher in the majors. I usually say anyone who goes to the NL, but not Silva...he really is that bad. Bradley could help out Seattle, who desperately need some runs producers, and have already had a hell of an offseason (getting Lee, and Figgins). Seattle looks like it will be the team to beat in the AL West.
