D'Ray's interested in Brad Lidge

[BigbadB]

Per Rotoworld. They really don't get it, do they?

 

The team ERA is almost 8.00 and they aren't looking to deal for starters?

The pen hasn't been any better.

 

Long-term, the rotation is in better shape than the pen. It's not like adding an arm in the pen is taking away from improving the rotation.

[CaliforniaRaisin]

It certainly wouldn't hurt Lidge to leave Houston.

[Tracer Bullet]

Depending on what they have to give up to get him, might not be bad. I'd start cheap though.

 

I do think they'd be better off trying to deal one of their 40 OFs for a SP.

[texascub]

With guys like Niemann, Hammel, Talbot, and Sonnanstine in AAA looking quite promising and others scattered throughout their minor league system I don't see a huge need for them to go out and grab SP. Especially at what it is costing right now since they are such a low-budget team. If I were to trade one of the OFer's, it would be either Gomes or Baldelli and I don't think either of them would really fetch anything too special anyway.

[erik316wttn]

Think we could get in on him?

 

If he rebounds we have a hell of a closer, and if he sucks, then it wouldn't cost us too much. He'd be a hell of a reclaimation project, though, and would probably have to straighten himself out in Iowa before joining the big club.

Like I said in a gamethread, they only have 1 lefty out of the pen. Let's trade them Eyre for Lidge. Makes perfect sense. :D

[Banedon]

Yeah I doubt they'd trade him within their own division. Don't want that coming back to bite ya.

James Shields is going to be a pretty good pitcher in their rotation.

He's looked pretty good so far tonight. He's gone 5 innings, 2 hits, 1 run (a solo homer in the 1st, 5K's/0BB's.

Well it looks like I jinxed him. In the 6th he allowed 4 runs (3 earned) on 2 homeruns.

[brinoch]

I wouldn't mind having Lidge. I think he'll rebound and be just fine. How about we give them Wade Miller for him. :lol:

[soccer10k]

It certainly wouldn't hurt Lidge to leave Houston.

 

And if he goes to TB he won't have to face Pujols this year.

So...Raisin's on record now for projecting a WS of Tampa vs St. Louis!

Certainly not if Pujols hits .176 this year.

Well, he is about done. He is well out of his prime years now at age 35. :shock:

Raisin also had Rafael Dolis in his top 30 list. :)

Somehow I don't see the Devil Rays making the postseason this year let alone the World Series. :D
