Quote:Gheez NYC...Grumpy today? We know Caldwell is working on it but I feel the same as TMD. We have serviceable players on this roster that will not be on the team next year. Why not extract value from those that are here?

Oh - I completely agree with Caldwell trading a couple of vets for picks. I'd like to see another one or two trades.  I'm just tired of the folks claiming to know what he is or isn't currently doing to make that happen. 

 

I think a few posters are wrong to assume that Caldwell isn't conducting trade negotiations for a handful of vets.   I can't imagine a scenario in which Caldwell hasn't reached out to a few other front offices and fielded a few offers from others.  I seems silly to think he wouldn't try. It's a huge part of his job. Whether or not he can come to terms with a partner remains to be seen. 

 

(bottom line - bashing Caldwell for not doing something he's  almost certainly knee-deep in the middle of doing is what I take issue with - sorry for being grumpy about it   I'll cheer up after dinner and drinks.)
