2355768, Considering the A's waived Fuld before the season began...

...it's a strange move on our part. After a bumpy start, Milone became an excellent pitcher this year. Before getting sent to AAA after the deal with the Cubs, you could have made the argument that he was the third best pitcher in our rotation. However, his career before that had been up and down.

It just seems strange that we would trade a rotation-ready guy for someone who we let walk earlier this year. I don't know. If we win the World Series, it washes everything away.
