When we ran a poll asking what you thought about the J.J. Hardy-for-Carlos Gomez trade, most of you said that you didn’t like the deal because Hardy should have brought more in return, or at least a starting pitcher for next season.

They made a trade that not only alleviated the surplus of outfielders on the roster but also may have filled their shortstop position for years to come when they sent Carlos Gomez to the Milwaukee Brewers for J.J.
