After a year in which in which he was, at various times, rumored to be traded for such players as Manny Ramirez, Mark Prior, Miguel Tejada, Alex Rodriguez, Derek Lowe, Mark Mulder and who knows who else, outfielder Bobby Abreu has finally been traded by the Phillies. He's headed to the Yankees, along with Cory Lidle, for a relief pitcher and three prospects.
The reaction in Philly before the trade? "Abreu sucks! Trade him!" The reaction in Philly after the trade? "How'd they get so little for him?" That, and, "what happened at Eagles training camp today?"
