Matt Holliday Traded

Matt Holdiay, one of the key pieces from the Colorado Rockies "Rocktober" run of 2007, has been traded.

Holliday is heading to the Oakland Athetics.

Huston Street, lefty starter Greg Smith and outfielder Carlos Gonzalez may be among the players that are sent to Colorado.

After Holliday basically dared the Rockies to trade him last week, the trade talks with the St. Louis Cardinals died down.

Holliday is representes by Scott Boras, meaning Holliday will command a lot of money on the Open market this coming offseason.

Good move by the Rockies to get some good players out of the deal.
