Well I don't think it should be any part of Boston's strategy--in the first 
half of the new season--to showcase a player whom they want to trade but 
who hasn't earned playing time.

Three weeks ago you were accusing Chris Wallace of incompetence because he 
didn't follow your advice to trade Moiso while he still *had trade value* 
last year. Now apparently Chris Wallace went and traded Moiso too soon. 
You're pretty hard to please as a "fan", but we all know that by now.
