Well, the Swisher trade caught me completely off-guard, but even at first glance, I really like it.

It definitely feels like 2008 could be one of the worst years in memory, but I really like the way 2009, 2010, 2011 look. The Haren/Swisher trades have basically restocked our farm system. And now that I've internalized the fact that two of my favorite players were moved this offseason, I'm excited to see who BB can move next (Blanton, Street, Ellis maybe) and for what. If you're going to rebuild, do it all the way. There's excitement in this for me, and I can't understand how someone can be a big A's fan and not understand that this is what BB does.

On an unrelated note, is anyone out there or am I typing into the void?
