F-Mart Ironic Untouchable Exercise
On the heels of Fernando Martinez‘s exile to Houston, let’s play a little game inspired by F-Mart’s “untouchable” status of the past few years:
1. Instead of releasing F-Mart, would you have traded him for Manny Ramirez?
2. Instead of releasing F-Mart, would you have traded him for Johan Santana?
3. Instead of releasing F-Mart, would you have traded him for Jason Bay?
Mind you, in participating in this exercise, you must assume you are operating in the moment — i.e., TODAY. This is not an exercise in “what might have been”, etc. Rather, pretend you had the power to trade Fernando Martinez as he is today for one of those three players as they are right now.
