They thought Stewart was undervalued. Guess they were wrong.

Valid point. And yes, they were dead wrong obviously.

Ill leave about a 3% chance they were right and Stewart comes back strong.

Given the lack of 3B out there, I'd say maybe 10%. Depends what kind of money someone throws at him.

It was one of those buy-low type trades. All of the parts are largely inconsequential, one of those parts looks better than he is thanks to Coors.

Field, that is.

Colvin did not make the Rockies opening day roster after a brutal spring at the plate. He will be back in AAA. I thought he did well enough last year to make the team regardless of how much he may have sucked in the spring.

This is a classic example of trade that went badly for all parties involved. Clean it up however you want, but both principals involve suck. It's like the Chicago recycling program. Trading garbage for garbage.

When the team is contending in a couple years, none of these players would have had a place on the roster. The trade will be remembered as inconsequential.
