Reactions to the Kazmir trade

Here are some reactions to the Kazmir trade today...

(Note: This will be updated)

Sporting News' Jesse Spector:
Kazmir, pitching very well, has been a 3-WAR guy over his first 18 starts. For another 12 starts at that pace, you would expect 2 WAR. The price of two projectable but far off prospects is right.
New York Post's Joel Sherman:
The worries on Kazmir are two-fold: He had to pull himself from two starts this year with arm discomfort, though he did not miss significant time on either occasion, and his home-road splits are dramatic.
