If the Red Sox's get either Colon or Vazquez the Yankees would do anything to improve there staff, they might go out and sign another starter, so dont hold out on getting a Yankee pitcher.
If we just give up Carlos then i'd do the deal, but i still think the 'Spos would want more and if we have a choice between Colon or Vazquez, i'd rather have Vazquez.
The more i think about it the less i like the idea of trading for Colon. We will give up something good for him (ie. Joe Crede or Carlos Lee + cash) and we'll only have him for one season. I rather see KW get 2 veteran starters and keep who ever he would trade, then have Colon for one season.
Yeah, i think its gonna be one of those two. It just depends which one is cheaper. If KW was smart he'd get two veteran starters. That would give us 5 guys who should pitch at least 190 innings and with our (should be good) bullpen we would win a lot of games.
Its a great article, we wont get anyone better then Suppan, but he makes a good point that we should have at least 3 guys who will eat up innings giving us a half-way decnet rotation.
Eddie Jones makes like 10.5 mil.
For a deal to happen the Bulls would need to give up E-Rob(5.5 mil), Fizer(2 mil), and JC(2 mil).
No way in hell is he worth those three players.
Last season he had a 3.48 ERA(.244 .OBA, 7 Starts) as a starter. He has a great fastball and a good curve. I think he could be a good pitcher if he gets the chance. What do you all think?
Also we should try and sign Fick, he'd make a good backup C, 1B, corner OF. If we can get hit at like 600-800K it would be a great move. He'll get more money elsewhere though.
