I agree here.Im more upset of Hirsh leaving though. He was supposed to be a #1 or 2 guy. And Buchholz was supposed to be a #2 or 3 guy. Hirsh didnt impress me too much last season but hes got tons of potential. I really liked Buchholz and Im sad to see him go. He was listed as the "next Roy Oswalt".
