This was a simple case of sensational journalism in it's weakest form. The titles did what the authors wanted them to do, they made people read them. Harvey I don't worry about as he doesn't tend to overdo it that much, he made a mistake. Salguero on the other hand does this quite a bit and finally it blatantly came back into his face...although his first article left him a way out. I completely agree.

What's worse is his follow up blog asking what kind of game is JT playing. Maybe JT is and maybe he isn't and maybe both sides are, but Salguero's intimation that somehow he knows the whole story is somehow disgustipating. In this, he reminds me of Kiper, who, if a team has the audacity to draft another player than the one the mighty Kiper predicted they would pick, will often belittle the choice. Since JT didn't follow the script that Armando wrote out for him, obviously, at least to Armando, JT must be playing some sort of game. Don't get me wrong, as I think he occasionally has some good stuff, but he rarely has come off as an unbiased journalist in this matter and needs to separate fact from opinion and commentary. As for Fialkov, I understand that reporters need to use sources, but then they need to do something about those that get stories wrong, such as stop using a particular source or identify them as the one who were wrong about a particular story if and when they use them again. Especially in this case, as it would have been illogical for JT to DEMAND a trade when all he'd have to do is ASK or say he's OPEN to one.
