As a Phillies fan, i'm not that happy with the Abreu/Lidle trade. Statistically, Abreu is the second best outfielder in Phillies history (behind HOFer Chuck Klein). The fact that they only got four minor leaguers, three of whom are only in A ball, tells me that this was nothing more than a salary dump. I can only hope that they put this freed up money to good use during the offseason.

Yankee fans should be happy with this trade. Although his homeruns are down, he still has the ability to go deep at anytime. Abreu is a legitimate 5-tool player. He'll fit in well in New York. I've had Phillies season tickets for years on the right field foul line, so Abreu has kinda been "my guy" on the team. I hope he does well with the Yankees.
