No.

 

Between DeRosa and Fontenot, we have too many good players for too few at bats already... why would it make sense to trade our top prospect (and others) only to exacerbate the problem?

Lee, Marquis, Pie for Adam Jones then the Cubs sign Texiera to play 1st.

I bet MacPhail would overpay for Pie, he seems to have held other former Cubs prospects too highly in the last couple of years.

Vitters, Cedeno, Veal, and Marquis (plus cash) for BRob and Scott.

 

I'd trade Cedeno, Veal, and Marquis for Scott in a heartbeat.

 

Id take a flyer out on that deal, however, I wouldnt be surprised if we could get Scott for Marquis alone, as desperate as the O's are for starting pitching, seemingly every year. Hes always been an >.800 OPSer and could possibly capitilize on Wrigley.

You serious? Marquis has negative trade value and they're going to trade Scott (a guy who, by all accounts, the Orioles organization is in love with) for him? Come on. They're desperate for starting pitching that is actually good and helps them in the future. Not a crappy pitcher who is under contract for one year and owed over 10 mil.

Is this some sort of joke? No.

 

Everyone take a big breath and exhale. Now I want each and everyone of you to say out loud the words I am about to post. say this in a british accent: Leadoff. Is. Not. A. Position.

Your probably right, but you never know with that train wreck of an organization.

Yeah, I mean you never know. He was just the cornerstone of the deal inwhich they traded their best freakin player since Cal Ripken for and put up a really good year and costs nothing, but hey, theyre idiots, you never know what will happen!

 

In related news, Sabean might trade Lincecum for Daryl Ward. I know Ward is a FA, the cubs know Ward is a FA, Sabean knows Ward is a FA, but you never know with that train wreck of an organization!
