Cashman may be onto something with this strategy; hopefully when they unburden themselves of the long-term contracts they can refocus on building a team with home assets and not just signing the best available for hostage-amount of years. I like this trade. Gotta think they at least try to sell high on Beltran (not likely) and get what they can for Brett and maaaayybe Headley mid-season if they can uncover another diamond in the rough. Beltran’s in his walk year and unless he thinks he’s Raul Ibanez just might hang it up soon. Only a fool would ask about Ellsbury, so I surmise that if anything happens, Brett turns into an on-the-cusp starter or long reliever/starter type like Warren, but with even more upside.
