Hed probably make a good LRP. I know he put up some great stats on my franchise and eventually made it to B pot.

I have Automonte (spell?) and Galvis on my chise too haha. How are you planning to use Automonte?

I plan on taking Aumont and using him in the pen as a middle reliever maybe this year then probably in 2013 or 2014 have him compete with Kelvin Herrera for the closer spot in Spring Training. I just want to get him a lot of innings and experience before he gets to compete for that role.

Almost forgot to mention a couple other trades that where made earlier in the year,

Billy Butler & Bruce Chen
FOR
David Price & Desmond Jennings

Ray Navarro
FOR
Gerrit Cole, Jameson Taillon and Josh Bell

Yuniesky Betencourt
FOR
Addison Reed

We got a bargin for David Price who at the time was 0-2 with a 10 something E.R.A. and had terrible control issues and Jennings was 0-30 in the season. Butler was hitting .176 after a terrible start to the season and Chen just could not find the zone.
