Goodbye Max...



The Arizona Diamondbacks' Josh Brynes is at it again. Say goodbye to flame thrower Max Sherzer and hello to newcomers Edwin Jackson and Ian Kennedy.

Sounds like a couple of U.S. Senators from back east. Nope! Instead, we have the new No. 3 and No. 4 Diamondbacks' starters for 2010. Of course, we're a long way from spring training, but it looks like we can pencil in Webb, Haren, Kennedy and Jackson, thanks to a three-team swap with the Yankees and the Tigers on Wednesday that sent both Sherzer and reliever Daniel Schlereth packing.

I didn't see that trade coming. I figured Max would be around for a while. I didn't get a chance to see Daniel perform much, but he should have been a keeper just because he's a former Wildcat. All kidding aside, the trade may turnout to be a good one for the Diamondbacks. We have 162 games to see what happens. What next? Could it be a one-year contract for a reliever named Randy Johnson?
