Right, that's what he's saying, after the dbacks get Navarro and Halsey they ship 'em off to L.A. for Green.

Even though I do like Contreras it would obviously be a great deal if we traded Jose for Javier, however I'd rather keep Jose and get aj. I honestly think our rotation is going to be very, very good this year and add aj to that offense and we'd have a team that could compete with anyone, no joke.

No need for that ace.

That's honestly the worst nickname ever.

That's my favorite part of the article. I still doubt we get either of these guys and end up with Cora, jmo.

I should also try that.

I'd bat Iguci 2nd, at worst I still think he has a higher obp then Juan will have with good speed and while I don't know this for sure I'd assume he's a good bunter, most of the japanese players seemed to be schooled well on fundamentals.

I highly doubt we sign both even though I guess it is a possibility. I still doubt we even get one of them, I think we'll end up with Cora and call it an offseason and I wouldn't mind Alex either. You're right though if both were signed that would be one deep lineup.

Thanks for the insight.

I got 15 out of 20.

The he pitched over 200 innnings his era was 4.12 while pitching in the american league is pretty good His career era is 3.96, if you have an era under 4 in the american league you're doing something right. Once again Millwood is not as good as Orlando and he's going to get paid far more then Hernandez. Lets pretend we went into the offseason having 2 open holes in the rotation, we've figured out we have a hard time winning any bidding wars, do you really have confidence we would have been able to find two starting pitchers on the market??

Millwood is much worse then El duque, and Clement and Perez have and will come at a much higher rate then Hernandez. There is no doubt when El duque is healthy he's still a great pitcher. As far as contreras I think the sox have proven they can't win a bidding war with anyone so it is very unlikely they would have got Pavano. I see your concern with Jose but personally I feel like he'll have a very solid year but I guess we just have to wait and see.

Man, I remember those howry for gagne rumors. I remember I really wanted that trade to happen because I thought Eric was going to be a great starter

I don't like Ofman either but wasn't he the first one to report the el duque deal??

I think it will be a seperate deal with Baltimore and Arizona after the RJ trade gets done, atleast that's what I'd assume.

:rolly I'm waiting for Kenny to sign Iguci and for you to call it a bad move.

Oh, I know who you're talking about, I'm just saying it hurts to be reminded of school next week :puke

Ouch, cheat.

Ditto. Just ordered my 13(well 14) game package today and am going to my first opening day, can't wait. EDIT: Welcome aboard

Agreed.......

Porter and Muhsin are the first two that come to mind for fa wr's.

Looks like I'm going to be in first place

Yes. EDIT: I misread it, I just saw water and thought you meant the pool they have in the bob, there is a slide in Miller park but not a water slide.

I highly doubt we get both Tony, but it would definitely be a completely different team.
