Pitching Trade Options

[RynoRules]

Ok, assuming we do my proposed deal, who plays C everyday? I dunno that Hank can handle it. Bring up Soto and platoon?

The rumor that was floating around here for awhile was Peavy and Adrian Gonzalez for Manny Ramirez. I don't think it really had any legs, but the Padres fans I spoke with thought it would be wonderful. They aren't happy with Peavy. They are calling Young their #1.

 

He kind of has a "chokes in the playoffs" reputation there, right? I'd like nothing better than to take on other teams good players who just aren't good enough for them "when it counts".

Yeah, these people are really weird on who they value. They are glad Bochy is gone, yet he has done miracles with mediocre teams. Peavy is in the dog house. They never gave Barfield a chance. Giles doesn't do enough (which they pretty much knew since almost all of his fly balls are caught at the warning track in Petco), the list goes on and on.

 

They also never saw the value Loretta provided for the team when he was there. Look at how god awful good his numbers were in Petco those two years he was there. And when I watched him play, he became one of my favorite players in the game. Always in the right place at the right time in the field. Just a real heads up player. Fundamentally sound.

 

That said, I doubt Peavy is going anywhere.

I hope I am wrong, but in the end if the Cubs do trade Jacque, I think Rodrigo Lopez will be heading this way.

I hope you're wrong, too.
