Pass...I guess you're not trying to contend this year though? I'm just confused since you're 32-11...

West will replace one of them in the rotation. I'll go with a 4-man or figure something else out. I think I'd still have a shot at the Wild Card. Gregg is going to turn 35 in June and Haren will be 33 in September. I get younger, save some dough (just signed Hottovy, Kuntz, and Ramirez to extensions), and get some solid specs. Butters will be my CF, Doty gives me some flexibility, and as I said West steps in at only 23...he can still turn it around. Perhaps a move to the NL will be better for him.

And I've won 2 out of the last 3 seasons...I'm not worried about that. I'm not just going to sit on my team.

pass it, nice net prov

[browntown653]

Fair enough, you do get some solid specs anyway.

that is a nice net... and gregg's value is at an all-time high since his talent burst, and breakthrough season(s) of sorts. i like the trade.
