I guess if Buerhle signs takes the ultimate hometown discount "League minimum" and Aramis signs for 3 or so mill it could happen

It's a courtesy offer. It's substantial enough that it's there's no way pujols would accept it and it's substantial enough the fans will be happy. I just don't think the Cards can sign him for more than 20 mill due to other bad deals given. Thank you, White Soriano for that grand 1/2 season.

There's also the part of me that's convinced he's Hendry's fallback option should Lee or Ramireze leave after next year.

Agreed, they are not terrible options. They are horrendous options.

I don't see the Rays wanting Vitters but I'd still do it.

That might be enough for one of them Might? Really? A closer, a starting SS/2B, a guy who has excelled as a loogy(and can spot start) and a guy who has potential as a DH. Not to mention they're all very cheap and most under team control for a bit. They would instantly have 3 or 4 guys they would put on the field right now. You're missing the point of the post. agree they all suck. freakin hendry.

i feel like everyone is calling him a platoon cf to say that he's not very good. Because he's not. He's a platoon player. They are 3 million dollar type players. Not 7-10 mill.

Sure why not. I mean we will need a world class jack*** once the team trades bradley away for peanuts.

please no. Sam Fuld will be better than Granderson

Trade Bradley to the cardinals for brendan ryan. sign Theriot for 5 years 20 mill Sign Figgins 4 years 36 mill Keep castro in AA/AAA. Let Lee walk and move Ramirez to 1B. Play Figgins at 3B when castro is ready.

That's not the debate though. The debate is he better choice than say 140 or so games of Sam Fuld.

Like offense? Because Sam Fuld is awful at that. The guy can't even OPS a 800 OPS in the freaking PCL as a 28 year old. Defense is important but not that important. Especially for a team desperate for offense in RF.

jermaine dye is like the opposite of consistent and no one with half a brain would say Sam Fuld is more valuable than Jermaine Dye. If Dye plays like he did last season, then Fuld wouldn't have to do much of anything with the bat to be more valuable overall than Dye. Sorry that you put too much stock in a name. 27 HRs and 81 RBIs. I don't think Sam Fuld could approach those half of those numbers if you gave him 2000ABs.

who are these mythical solid MI's? I count two servicable 2Bs, a couple end of the bench iowa express guys and aaron miles.
