Jeff Luhnow talked to Mark Berman about the Melancon trade today:
"Obviously we're giving up a lot in Melancon, but I feel like we're getting value back in getting a guy that can play shortstop with a good (bat), a switch-hitter, as well as a pitcher who is capable of being in the rotation next year."
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
