2 things.....you said realistic...utley for ethier and izturis is no where NEAR realistic for one......all all these crazy names to be thrown out, someone actually wants ryan madson???????????????????????????

[The Big Stick]

So the offer doesnt have to be realistic? Ok ill take Pujols, Johan, and K-rod to the Mets for players to be named later....

This question would have been more interesting if realism was taken into account.

LOL I like that trade but comming to the Bronx. I would trade away K-Rod for liriano.

Braves is my team, I'd trade away Laroche, Reitsma, Pratt and most of the bullpen for a copy of the March Edtion of the 1992 Sports Illustrated..... Wait just kidding.


My first goal would to be get my hand's on a closer of some sort. So I'd look at grabbing chad cordero from the Nationals to put a anchor in my pen.

Next I'd shop around a prospect or two along with LaRoche and find a solid power hitting 1B. Someone like Ortiz.

Next I'd make a move and aquire Soriano to come be my leadoff hitter. And ship out Giles, Virreall, and Paranto.

Lastly when Fa signing period start's Id aim for Kerry Wood and Rich Harden, two young players who ahve alot of injury problems. I'd play both of them as middle relivers with a start every 5th day (One would start one 5th day the other the enxt.)

Where in the heck did you come up with that strategy? Harden is a stud, once Zito is gone he is the A's ace

Harden has become the next injury prone star in baseball. I dont see him being the ACE they thought he would be, sorry

Juan encarnacion to Min for Johan Santana

Mark mulder to Florida for miguel cabrera

[brandnew]

How about we make this into a realistic perfect trade scenario? (Not that the other team wouldn't trade away their player, but your team gives equal talent)

Braves trade:

Jarrod Saltalamacchia (LF), Brandon Jones, Anthony LeRew, Marcus Giles

FOR

Francisco Liriano, Joe Nathan, Shannon Stewart

Braves trade:

Adam LaRoche, Tim Hudson

FOR

Lance Berkman


Stewart LF
Renteria SS
Berkman 1B
Jones CF
Jones 3B
McCann C
Betemit 2B
Francoeur RF

Smoltz
Liriano
Ramirez
Thomson
James

McBride
Boyer
Devine
Startup
Nathan

(Dream world where there are no injuries)

[jealousblues]

I wish the Cards would trade Mulder for a star OF but that wont happen. All the guys mentioned so far, (cabrera, Soriano) woudl want cheap prospects.

the only proposed trade senario that is even remotly pluasable is Mulder for Abreu...and I dont even think that will happen.

Hudson is worth more than Berkman IMO, But if they would toss in a prospect or a first round draft pick that'd be nice, Of course if the Stros did that trade this year the starting pitchers would send chill's down my spine (Oswalt, Pettite, Clemens, Hudson and Rodriguez.)
