Nevertheless, Kerber expressed gratitude at being a beneficiary of the Nine's eye for talent. "Even though Martin didn't get the start, I have to feel good about owning a productive catcher -- especially one that I got for that piece-of-crap Kevin Gregg." Kerber paused before adding, "Klein might be able to draft, but he's not so hot once the trading begins."
