GIO GONZALEZ: THE ONE THAT GOT AWAY

Keith Law of ESPN and others are reporting that Gio Gonzalez is going to the Washington Nationals in a trade. The story is HERE.

The MLB Fan Cave's tweet is here:Nick Cafardo of Boston.com writes:

"ESPN's Keith Law is reporting a deal between the Oakland A's and the Washington Nationals is done sending lefty Gio Gonzalez to the Nats for four prospects.

Law reports that the A's get A.J. Cole, Brad Peacock, Derek Norris, and Tom Milone."

Nothing more needs to be said. I'm disappointed in my New York Yankees and Brian Cashman. That disappointment may turn to anger. Dammit. I'll see if I feel like writing an opinion piece later, stay tuned for it. Right now I'm off the see The Adventures of Tintin.
