I'd definately consider Carlos Lee for Russ Ortiz. Ortiz is a proven winner and a real good pitcher.

 

Still, I really hate giving up Caballo, I like the way our offense is going to look next year with him and Caballo their.

 

That way their is a lot less pressure on Crede, Olivo, Rowand, and Jimenez.

Ortiz would be worth el caballo and probably more. That guy is a winner. Postseason experience too... 

 

14-10 with a 3.61 ERA. Sign Byrd (or maybe someone cheaper like Helling) too and wed be unstoppable...

i will have to agree here, lee will not be enuf for the sox to get this guy.

I heard that a deal could happen between the Sox and Cubs for Damian Miller. Im assuming that it would be contingent on the Cubs getting Rodriguez first.

 

Thanks for letting us know what you hear.

I dont' want Damian Miller, too expensive for a veteran catcher. Still, if it didn't cost us a thing prospect wise, I'd consider it. Of course, with Miller, Manuel, will probably get too tempted and start him over Olivo, and I don't want to see that happening until Olivo shows he should be in AAA.

I'm with ya, way too expensive.

 

I won't give up Rauch, no way. The guy is the only pitcher we have thats in the minors that is ready right now, at least starting wise.

 

Plus, the guy is really good. To me he's ready to be our #5 starter, but I'll only accept him their off the bat if we bring in a real good #2.

You guys must be underestimating Russ Ortiz. Look at his stats, he is much better than Garland or Wright. Although he might not be worth Lee and Rauch, he is definitely a #2 starter and could develop into a #1 type guy. Remember, he started some game 1's for San Fran in the playoffs and came up with some great performances.

ahh shut up ldf lol....:o murc.. if we did get alomar back he wouldnt be playing over olivo.. espically since olivo is one of kw's kids.....and i actually think if they did bring sandy back he would be only for one year and they would most likely put him in as coaching or something like that... it was mentioned once before in the begining of last season......of course we had to be rid of his money ......but from who i know of the pitching staff they really did like him alot and missed him when he left.....i think that colorado does have him for one more year though... ill have to recheck to be sure though.........
