    Re: Trade Deadline Thread



    Interesting article regarding if the Rangers should trade Hamilton. I didn't even think they would consider it, but there are some good points raised here. The question would be what do they demand for him. Maybe to the Marlins for JJ and prospects?

      I don't see why the Marlins would make that trade.

        Well, it was more I think the Marlins are the only team that have what the Rangers need/want. If the Marlins could resign him, they might want to do it. Honestly, the contenders out there are really looking for pitching...I don't see a team looking for a bat (maybe Pittsburgh?).

          White Sox acquire Francisco Liriano from the Twins in exchange for Eduardo Escobar and Pedro Hernandez.

            It's an interesting idea, but I think in that situation the Marlins would be content to just keep JJ and attempt to sign Hamilton in the winter.

                Well, my first reaction to the Liriano trade was something like this...



                Unless Don Cooper can work some of his magic, I do not like what the Sox gave up for Liriano.

                I guess we'll see.

                  Astros trade 3B Chris Johnson to Arizona for Bobby Borchering and Marc Krauss. Really nice haul for Houson.

                    Arizona gets Chris Johnson from Houston.

                    I like the package Houston got in this deal, especially Bobby Borchering. He's no Chris Johnson from the Tennessee Titans, but he has a 1.2 OWAR and should fit in Arizona.

                      The thing I love about this, is the White Sox rocked Liriano up just a few days ago before the trade. 2 2/3 innings pitched, gave up 7 hits, walked 1, gave up 7 runs and struck out 2.

                      Feel bad for Liriano, he was a beast before his injury, then had a decent year in 2010 when maybe he was getting back fully healthy, and now been terrible again.

                        Yeah Liriano is going to be a boom or bust for them, when hes hot he can look really good, when hes not he looks flat out awful.

                        If the Sox can get him on track he could be a nice piece for them down the stretch though.

                            He's been on a hot streak over the past month. Before that he was average/below average.

                              Josh Willingham, Allen Craig, and Brandon Belt are being rumored for him/and or Vargas.

                                You wish lol.... a reliever for any of those guys is a steal. If Vargas is included, maybe it'll happen.

                                Does anyone really care where I sent this from?
