Because we are getting Jimenez for 2 and half years, not just half...

Cliff might have resigned, circumstances could have changed in a half year...

I don't know, I like Ubaldo, but not enough to trade 3-4 our our best prospects for him.

Uballzo is exactly the type of gguy you trade prospects for. The best case scenario for Betances is pretty much what Ubaldo is now. Nova is a back end starter at best and we lost him to the rule 5 a few years ago. No need to get clingy now. Losing Jesus would hurt obviously but you have to make sacrifices to fit holes. We have plenty of Catchers on the way and I'm sure there are plenty of DH candidates in the open market. The pitching market on the other hand is laughably bleak.

Alright, SimCity. Maybe you were right about Wandy Rodriguez. A couple of bad starts in a row. Although his K-rate has been great. Maybe trading him to an AL team is a bad idea. I still think he'll be moved. Maybe to the Rockies or some "middle of the road" team not likely to make the postseason.

rockies already looking like the latter ><

2012. Rockies have all the pieces. May as well get another solid lefty right now. Wandy's trading value likely went down after his last three starts.

Could turn out to be another Berkman. Get him for less now, then next season turns out to be a huge steal.

I never said Wandy stinks bro. Again I said I would have loved to trade for him if he wasn't signed longterm. Too flawed a pitcher to have tied up that long.

Apparently wiggintons name has been mentioned in talks. Ewwwwwww.

lolol

him n CC could eat together.

I'm surprised his name hasn't surfaced as a possible candidate for the Phills. It's laughable how little right handed hitting we have.
