I approve of this trade.   

I like adding Dominguez and Yelich who will most likely be starters for Miami very soon. Plus adding pitching depth can't hurt. Don't really trust Freese or Craig to stay healthy. But if they both can stay healthy they are quality players. 

It took us a while to get something done but good trading with ya.

This will be sent to the PROFSL TC for official review.

The reason I am making this trade is we are getting major league ready talent.  We are also opening up two spots in our bullpen for some more of our youngsters as they continue to develope.  I know that losing Dominguez will hurt at third with his defense but we believe that Freese will stay healthy and has more potential with his bat.  Yelich was not someone we really wanted to give up and believe he will have a bright future but we are excited about who we are getting in return. Theriot is projected to be at short to take over hanley's spot with the david price trade for the time being unless something major changes. We love his determination and his team first outlook that he has shown thoughout his career. Craig has hit at every level he has been at and is showing the promise that we believe in.  We feel he has the talent potential to be the next Matt Holliday.  Whether these three start or come off the bench we feel we have strengthened our team as a whole.

I like the trade for both sides. I think the Marlins are adding high risk high reward players if they can stay healthy. The Cards are adding some decent spec in return. Solid deal guys.

[MillerTime]

   Potential on both sides. 

[Colby]

Dominguez is a good grab... some potential on each side.

[Corey]

Good snag on Dominguez here. I like it.
