Second trade already...
That's right, the DMBL World Series is barely a few weeks over and now the second trade of the offseason is completed. Hoboken traded young lefthander Scott Kazmir to the Philadelphia Endzone Animals in exchange for Adam Dunn, their 9th pick in this year's draft, and a 6th rounder in 2010. Hoboken drafted Kazmir in the 5th round of the 2004 draft (64 overall), but kept him in the minors until the 2006 season when he got his first cup of coffee. Kazmir started 6 games that year, but was bombed to the tune of a 7.99 ERA. Things improved the next season for Kazmir, earning a full-time rotation spot and amassing a 14-13 record with a 4.64 ERA. Kazmir took a big step back in 2008, going 8-19 with a 6.10 ERA, but Philadelphia thought he may have just needed a change of scenery. Meanwhile, Adam Dunn, who had been a mainstay with Hillsborough for many years was part of the Alex Rodriguez deal that sent him and A-Rod to Arkansas. The Falcons, sensing that a playoff appearance was not in the cards, sent Dunn to Philadelphia in July in exchange for Jonathan Sanchez and a draft pick.
