In Shock

I am in shock right now.  I cannot believe that Harden has been traded.  I know that first and foremost Baseball is a business but I am really sad.  It means that Beane doesn't think the Athletics have a chance of hope this season. It also shows that he doesn't care about fan favorites.  Beane waited ll these years of Harden on the DL and then traded him when he got good. So we as fans waited patiently, let Harden rehab, watched him get injured time and time again and now that we have gotten him healthy he is gone.  I realize this happens every day in sports  but I still hate when it happens.  Gaudin was also traded and I really liked him as well.  Here are some aricles on the trades:
