Im not going anywhere with this team so might as well prepair my offseason trade block.
Needs:
A new Rotation.
Younger bench.
Not Needs:
Bullpen
Most everyday positions maybe 3b if I trade Blalock.
Lets throw some youth out there and see what sort of reaction it gets:
Jeremy Bonderman
Hank Blalock (wouldnt HAVE to get a new 3b with Nomar but it would be nice to have a competant 3b).
Draft Picks:
My 1st Round pick (looks to be top 10 right now)
Sea 1st Round pick (20s pick)
My 2nd Round pick
Ten 2nd Round pick (also top 10 of the round)
My 3rd-8th round picks
Van 8th round pick (top 5 pick in the round)
Rest of my "usual" picks through the end of the draft.
Trade Block:
Merkin Valdez- 4.0 starting pitcher spect
Aaron Thompson- 3.5 starting pitcher spect.
Travis Blackley- 4.5 SP spect
Ole Sheldon- 4.0 1b spect.
Nomar Garciaparra- 4.0 star Free Agent after next year
And the other older players i was trying to give away this year.
