Alot of people think we're going to get Harden. I'm not sure about that. I think Davis/Washburn are more likey considering their ties to Milwaukee. Bedard I could see as well. I also see us signing Mulder and even possibly bringing back Sheets.

I wouldn't Mind Bay or Figgins if we Can't get Holliday, and we still get like 2 high draft pick dont we?

Franklin needs to go. I don't want Beltre, we have Freese, Ryan, Mather, *Sniffle* Wallace:(

why would he go to the Marlins? If he is going to be switched to third, he will likely do it in houston.

The bigger reason is that they have Uggla already and the only reason they move him is because of salary. Trading him to dump salary and then bring in a worse player for more money doesn't make sense :p

bump for anyone that still wants to make predictions to see how well you can place, I will be keeping points

I love how people are attacking others for their predictions. Like you know anything. Like anyone predicted that the A's would be the one's to trade for Holliday.

I can't wait until your predictions are completely wrong so we can all ridicule you.
