MLB Chise Trade Talks

Hes had 1 good year, in his first real oppurtunity to pitch. He is probably the most coveted pitcher in their orginization right now.

In the Detroit Tigers organization, is that really saying much? lol

I know Gallaraga is good, but I doubt the A's would be throwing out top prospects to get him. The Tigers would prob give him up for a starter who's above average and could go right now, and a guy who could come in in a year and be a 3rd or 4th starter, and a mid-level prospect with speed on the bases.

I desperately need a lefty starter. I'd be willing to give up Arroyo, Harang, or Owings, and some prospects for a good veteran lefty. Who should I go after?

I'm the Reds.

Does Kenny Rogers fastball top out at 67 mph?

And does he sing country songs?

Mark Mulder. I'm not joking. It would be awesome if you could revitalize his career.

[chazmaniandevil]

in my giants chise should i consider getting mark prior?

i think it would be a good story, him moving from AAA to my bullpen if he succeeds later in the season

I'm gonna go after Jonathan Sanchez (Giants). They need some power bats. What should I give them? I'm Reds.

Encarnacion is going... no wheres.

I'd actually give up Votto to acquire Sanchez, but I'd need more in return than just Sanchez cause I'd be giving up Micah Owings as well.

[chazmaniandevil]

what else are you looking for, the giants are already hesitant to give up sanchez at all

What if I did:

Reds trade:
1B Joey Votto
SP Micah Owings

Giants trade:
1B Travis Ishikawa
SP Jonathan Sanchez

Another one I was looking at was the Marlins. They need catcher help and I have Ramon Hernandez sitting on the bench. What about something like:

Reds trade:
C Ramon Hernandez
SP Micah Owings

Marlins trade:
SP Andrew Miller
SS Robert Andino

[chazmaniandevil]

the giants would accept that

dont think the marlins would trade both those

[The Messenger]

I'm actually thinking of trading Harang instead of Owings. If I involved Harang in that deal instead of Owings, and added Danny Richar (plays second and third), could I get Sanchez, Ishikawa, and Sandoval?

I was then thinking I could move Owings into the bullpen as my long reliever, and make a big free agent pitcher signing *cough*Sheets*cough* down the road. Thoughts?

[chazmaniandevil]

sandoval isnt moving, the giants dont need anyone better than owings, they have lowry as a 6th starter

Get Bumgarner. lol
