They already have the white version of Jacque Jones and they plan on trading or benching him. But the black version is cheaper! Maybe they want some relievers? If we can trade some relievers for a guy who hit 35 HRs last year, can play defensive premium postitions, is making barely over league minimum and is under control for the next three years, then whoever takes over for selig should just contract the Brewers. George Bell? I assume you are referring to us trading George Bell to the White Sox for Ken Patterson and Sosa. At the time George Bell was one of the highest paid players in the league, was a DH level defensively, hit 25 HRs, was 6 years older than Hall, production was declining, and so on and so forth. Forgive me if I am missing the comparison. No, I'm referring to this guy: http://img68.imageshack.us/img68/8219/da24zg9.gif You see, sometimes people do things that make no sense. Novoa for Hall sounds pretty nonsensical to me. We've got a chance, my friend. You could have just said V. Zambrano/Scott Kazmir Is my name Dayn Perry? I don't know, do you know the difference between correlation and causation? Not in the least! Do you know the difference between Chris Jackson and Mahmoud Abdul Rauf?
