So I have thought about this now for about 5 hours at work and here are my thoughts on the issue. 1. I am really shocked to see so many people are so down on Marmol. I consider him a crucial part of this team and would not include him as part of a deal unless it was a superduper star. 2. I dont consider Granderson to be a superduper star. I consider him to be a very good player. But not one that I would unload the house for. 3. That being said I really like his contract and the fact that he mashes Righties. 4. I am not happy with his lefty split situation, and I am pretty sure that Keith Laws view that he is a platoon player is correct. OPS around .500 is just not good 5. That being said there arent too many lefty starters in the NL central outside of Pittsburgh. 6. My offer would be Vitters and a Gaub/Burke/Flaherty type. Or give Ryan Theriot up. 7. Giving up Theriot would be excellent since then we wouldnt have him playing SS and we wouldnt just slide him over to Second Base when Castro is ready.My biggest fear) 8. I really hope we don't overpay
