Hmmm...link, please.
I checked both your user name and my user name on search, found my threads on Greene for Lugo and Crisp, and found nothing from you.
Here's what I had to say:

That's the kind of player a smart GM trades, especially if he can get both a starting SS and a starting CF in the deal.
Greene has a career split of .274/.318/.452 in road games at AL ballparks--that's really good for a shortstop. For contrast, Lugo hit .190/.241/.306 on the road last year, but his career line of .200/.333/.320 in PETCO is probably more valuable than Greene's because of the big difference in OBP. (His career interleague mark of .257/.342/.376 is, of course, much better than his PETCO stats.)

I hope the best for Jim Edmonds, a guy who'll garner interest from HoF voters in five or so years. What this means to me is that San Diego needs a CF, and that means discussion of what we might get for Crisp from a team bereft of minor-league talent. This is the best deal that I can conceive as a win-win for both teams, salaries and contracts considered.
