    Another starter? Milton on the move? Say it's so.

    From Will Carroll on BaseballProspectus.com, posted an interesting tidbit:

Let's assume that "more compatible" means "less gopher balls."
    Who would be comperable on the market? I assume we would look for a slight upgrade and give something back with Milton.

    I have no clue who would want Milton. I surely hope we are adding a catcher and a sub-par spect for something nice here.

    Comparable pitchers on the market... Javier Vazquez? Joel Pineiro? Jason Marquis? Livan?

    Is there a team that plays with more gravity or something?

    Has anything Carroll said ever happened?
    The Simpson family gathers around, as Homer places Bart's passed test on the fridge.)

    Homer: We're proud of you, boy.

    Bart: Thanks, Dad. But part of this D-minus belongs to God.

    True. His record as of late has been pretty poor to my knowledge. It was still interesting, I am just desperate for another starter, but I doubt the moving of Milton will happen.
