My thoughts:


SP J Schmidt -- he should be fine and looked good vs LA.
SP L Hernandez -- never know w/ him
RP M Rivera -- You're golden
RP E Guardado--He's ok
P C Zambrano--May be your surprise w/ 15+wins
P B Penny-who?
P J Julio-Huh?
BN T Glavine-He's still playing?
BN J Speier-will get you some nice innings w/ low WHIP & ERA

Nice team, a cinch contender.

Members Only...you're either joking or just not paying attention. Penny has had stud potential all along and now appears to have broken through. Old Glavine has been lights out so far (though I would be looking to deal him while he's this hot) and Speier will probably end up as the closer in Toronto. Julio is the closer in Baltimore, and while he's hardly the nuts, he's worth more than a "huh".

The guy I'd seriously shop is Zambrano. Dusty pitched him into the ground last year, and early indicators are that he will do so again. Might try and package Zambrano and Glavine to a team that's weak at SP and get a decent or better closer plus a role player in return.

Thanks for the tips thehat...

You really think I should package Zambrano and Glavine in a trade? Wouldn't that leave pretty thin for starting pitching?

[Zito 4 President]

Trade Schmidt for a closer like Guardado, sice that's probably the best you'll get for him. Then trade Hernandez for 1-2 solid SP like Peavy and Clement or Wade Miller and Maddux. Something along those lines. Later days

Ummm, I think Schmidt for Guardado would be a terrible trade, besides the fact I already have Guardado...

You do realize that Schmidt is off the DL and had a solid start last night, right?
