If you told me that Carpenter was gonna get injured, then of course I would have had a slightly different opinion.

And since every start that he misses costs JL a potential 10 points or so (I figure he'll replace Carpenter at 20 FPPG or so with someone else who scores maybe 10 FPPG or so), there's a limit to how many starts he can miss before the advantage in this trade swings to your side almost irrespective of what A Rod does).

So how did you know?
