Details of the trade? - New England Patriots Forums

specifically, i read that if the dude we traded goes on the DL, they get one of our minor league pitchers. does anyone know if that minor leaguer has been named, or how he will be chosen?

I doubt it will be anyone who we will actually recognize!

They said "second tier." That could mean a whole lot of things. Maybe a high A guy out the top 10, maybe a high-ranking low A guy. I'm sure Cleveland has a list to chose from. That's often how these things are done.

Either way, I have little doubt that Mota will be spending some time on the DL this year.

If that's the case then I think we will lose that guy. Cleveland will find a way to get him on the 15day dl (or something like that)!

im positive that will happen... i was just trying to figure out who it could be... (i guess i shouldnt worry; that will be a whole new press conference)
