Unhappy Blue Awaiting Word On Trade Fate
Vida Blue, seeking a trade from the Oakland A's, faces a pending decision by Commissioner Bowie Kuhn after Oakland attempted to move him to Cincinnati for 1.75 million dollars plus minor leaguer Dave Revering. As hearings unfold, Finley and associates defend the deal while questioning Revering’s value. If Kuhn blocks the sale, Blue remains with Oakland amid speculation about the team’s rebuilding plan and ongoing financial pressures.
