June 1, 200520 yr QUOTE(beck72 @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 08:09 AM) Villone is a guy who goes under the radar. Not sure what he throws, etc. But if he has good control and eats up LH hitters, why not? Eddie did get his team option declined this yr. If they have cheaper options, and can get good talent they should deal him They declined him because they didn't even think he would be able to pitch half of the year. Anway, he has a complete no trade clause.
June 1, 200520 yr QUOTE(beck72 @ Jun 1, 2005 -> 12:25 PM) Guardado would have to be considered, esp. with his great control. With both sox lefties Marte and Cotts being erratic at times, he could look nice on the south side [though I don't know what Sea. would want--maybe a young SP [sean Tracey] and bullpen help [Munoz /Diaz/ Baj] a replacement for Bret Boone--[Willie Harris] I think Guardado would be an outstanding pickup. Hermanson Guardado Politte Marte (would not have to be used when he's erratic) That would be an outstanding pen. More than good enough for the postseason. Any of the top 3 guys could close. I can't imagine Seattle wanting Vizcaino. But I can see them accepting Cotts on the notion of turning him into a starter. If they want Shingo, fine too. (He could be very good in that ballpark.) And hey, maybe they would take Joe Borchard?
