whata disappointment hermida has been. damn.
Jones, a 25-year-old native of Palm Beach Gardens, ,made 11 relief appearances for the Red Sox last season, allowing 13 earned runs over 12 2/3 innings for a 9.24 ERA.
Alvarez, 20, spent last season at Single A Salem and Lowell

Ray FinkleNew MemberAs said in the Sox thread, I really like this deal for the Sox simply because neither Jones nor Alvarez are anything special. According to a Red Sox source the Sox made this move because they always liked Hermida and also because he came to them cheap (in terms of players to be dealt). Maybe Hermida can turn things around for the Sox as a back up OFer, either way no Sox fan can be disappointed in this deal by any means.
#1 fanForum Veteranidk, i'm pretty happy. less strikeouts from hermida and we get a guy named alvarez (my last name). we need pitching and hopefully we can use the money that we saved on hermida for players that are actually good.
SICKForum Veteranlooks like another failed trade for the fish........sucks.

For all the failed trades, this FO has made very good trades.
I'm not dissapointed Hermida left. He needs a change of sceneary. Hopefully he gets his act together and revives his career.

It wouldn't surprise me if he is retained. Jeff Ireland is the nightmare that won't end. The **** stain you cannot flush. The Herpes for which there is no cure.

Gotcha. Although I don't think it's crazy to think he can be a better ball player (especially as a 4th OF) away from Dolphin Stadium. Check out his home/road splits as well as his numbers against LHP and RHP. There are big differences. Maybe he just needs to go to a LHH park and in a platoon situation.

i look at it more as a failed draft pick than a failed trade.

he already was platooning in RF for the marlins. i wouldn't put too much stock in this guy. has a nice arm, and a nice swing. maybe one day he puts it together.
he was a good salary to cut. i hope his depature means the marlins keep cantu and other players. i wouldn't mind seeing uggla traded in a salary dump either.
