I'll throw a few more ideas out:

 

Corey Patterson and 2 pitching prospects to Washington for Brad Wilkerson.

 

Jerry Hairston and Roberto Novoa to Minnesota for JC Romero.

 

Sergio Mitre and Todd Wellemeyer to Pittsburgh for Kip Wells.

 

I'd jump all over that first one.

Heck yes.

 

I think the second and third are questionable.

Posted
Walker to the Dodgers for Bradley (Kent moves to 1B).

 

Or Walker to the Mets for Floyd.

 

Hm. I like that.

 

I'd prefer Bradley over Pierre in CF (especially if Fucal signs). I don't think Hendry feels the same way though.

Probably right. If we get Furcal and Bradley (as has been noted several times in other threads), that would be a great start.

How about these moves, predicated on the fact that we sign Furcal to a four year deal.

 

1. Cubs get: Castillo, Bradley, and Lowe. Marlins get Nolasco, Walker, Cubs prospect. Dodgers get Lowell and 2 million from the Cubs.

 

2. Cubs trade Cedeno and Mitre to the Rangers for Mench.

 

Leaves us with this:

 

SS Furcal

2b Castillo

1b Lee

3b Ramirez

CF Bradley

RF Mench

lf Murton

C Barrett

 

We'd have to use roster filler for the bullpen and bench, but our rotation would be

 

Prior

Zambrano

Wood

Maddux

Lowe

 

We'd also have very good defense up the middle.

I would be fine with that lineup since Bradley has a good bat in CF to help with the lack of power overall in the OF. I just don't see Mr. Hendry going after Bradey though.

I'd like all 3. Kip needs a change of scenery. He's the type of guy Larry could help turn the corner more consistently.
