Oh yeah, missed that, sorry.

Did Howard have a good year the year before?

Like I say, if Howard is still an asset then I don't think it's a rip-off. It's not a trade I'd likely make controlling the Giants, but I could see a ML GM doing something similar.

Plus, like you say, you're giving up your best prospect and a few other decent ones. Maybe the Giants don't think Pence is worth his arb. # and maybe they don't think Belt is as good as you do. The more I think about it, the more I think it's fair.
