Still good for the (fictional) Red Sox though.
Re: What If???? The Alternate Story of A-Rod
I'll add in Meredith and take back Timlin. (Nixon is only 30) and will be their best outfielder. btw, their starters before nixon were 30, 28, 28 years old. and nixon improves on one of the 28's so its really not bad considering they get stern too (mid 80s peak)
Re: What If???? The Alternate Story of A-Rod
It's not that lopsided of a trade (aside from quantity). There have been much, much worse in the Dynasties Forum. Good idea replacing Timlin with Meredith.
Re: What If???? The Alternate Story of A-Rod
June
2. Pedro goes 8 shutout innings and Foulke pitches the 9th as the Red Sox with with the help of Juan Gonzalez's home run. Red Sox 4, Indians 0
3. Curt Schilling pitches the complete game as the Red Sox offense got 3 homers, one from Ortiz, Magglio Ordonez and Mark Bellhorn. A-Rod is now hitless in his last 8 at bats. Red Sox 12, Indians 2
4. The Red Sox were led by Ortiz's 2 homers as Byung-Hyun Kim pitches for the injured Derek Lowe. Youk gets his second home run of his career. Red Sox 4, Indians 1
5. The Red Sox had one pitcher pitch 2 innings and the rest pitched less as the Blue Jays squeak out a win. I'm going to have a talk with Terry about using Street. We gave up a lot, so we better use him! Blue Jays 6, Red Sox 5
6. Bronson Arroyo continues his excellent season as he gives up just 4 hits in the complete game shutout, improving his record to 8-1. Red Sox 5, Blue Jays 0
7. Did someone call for an encore? Pedro now hurls a complete game shutout, giving up just 2 hits and fanning 11 to be the first pitcher to win 10 games this season. His ERA is now down to a miniscule 1.55. Red Sox 8, Blue Jays 0
8. Curt Schilling nearly makes it back to back to back complete game shutouts but he gets rocked for 4 runs in the ninth to bring in Huston Street for his first appearance as a Red Sock! He is flawless, as he fans 2 to get the save. Red Sox 7, Blue Jays 4
9. Trot Nixon makes an error and goes 0 for 3 in his return to Fenway as the Sox maul Harden for the win. Red Sox 7, A's 3
10. Ortiz hits another homer as he looks like he's on pace to hit 60 as the Red Sox win easily. Red Sox 9, A's 3
11. Kevin Youkilis hits his 3rd home run as the Red Sox come back in the 7th to win. Red Sox 9, A's 3

You could cough into the phone and say "Henley" and end up trading them Bob Henley instead.
