Balta1701 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 05:30 PM) Offense would be devastating. And clearly they'd come out and destroy the Yankees, Red Sox, and Rangers? And with the extra pitching the Rays have coming up? If everyone developed they could be competitive. Handing the AL to them because of talent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spin Lind and a couple prospects from their loaded system for a SP/RP upgrade. Yes, they would be the favorite, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can play multiple positions, above average power, and a team-friendly contract through 2013. I could see a team like the Rangers being interested. The possibilities are endless when you have so many team-friendly contracts, strong system, and a s***load of money to spend. Even with arb raises due to Escobar and Morrow, their payroll still won't sniff $50 million. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And any team could see Vernon Wells was owed a billion dollars for the next 4 years. But where there's Alex Anthopoulos' will, there's usually a way.

Think J.P Ricciardi pulls that off? He was the dumbass who signed him to the deal (as well as Rios) in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
