On one of the ESPN chats Rob Neyer said it would take one A- prospect and a couple lesser ones to land Rich Harden. But, said that the A's probably won't trade him because they will still be in the race.
I would do it but we would probably have to add one more person. Hoff, Murton, or Cedeno would be a legit throw in with that package. I think one of those players would work probably Cedeno would work best.
Looks like the Padres already have an agreement with Adis Portillo: http://www.philly.com/dailynews/sports/20080701_High-end_Latin_prospects_not_in_Phillies__budget.html
BUST I wonder what the Boise record for longest hitting streak to start a season? Josh must be getting close. I'm not positive but i don't think he got a hit in his first two games at Boise.
